Video – Bette Midler Forgotten Classic: “Angst On A Shoestring” aka Why Bother? (1985)
Bette Midler produced this short film for David Letterman’s Holiday Film Festival in 1985.
Letterman gave celebrities $10,000 each to produce their own short holiday film. This was Divine Bette’s contribution.
This Bette being as awesome as always!!! I do, however, prefer the version of this she did on her album titeld “Mud Will be Flung Tonight”
Saturday Night Live showed this I believe, in 1985.
