If you want an awesome, awesome Joan Crawford flick, check out Mildred Pierce.

Mommie Dearest was an interesting tale but you really have to wonder how much of the stuff said by these children of the stars is true. Like Bing's kids Christine waited to come out until her mom was gone and couldn't defend herself against the accusations. I think Mildred Pierce is Joan's most acclaimed piece, a real high point in her career.
