Have you seen her final film TROG (1970)? Gloriously bad entertainment to be enjoyed again and again. smile

The Night Gallery episode directed by Steven Spielberg.

Other than that, I've only seen her in Johnny Guitar and Grand Hotel.

I'm going to watch her Oscar winning performance in MILDRED PIERCE just as soon as I sign off work tonight. What a magnificent bitch. Hammy, but could handle it.

The last movie I saw with Joan Crawford was DANCING LADY (1933), several weeks ago.

If you haven't seen Joan Crawford in the era from 1925 to 1940, you HAVEN'T SEEN Joan Crawford---and her pictures with, especially, Clark Gable, steam up the screen.

In this period she was alternately a lively, vibrant, emotionally-touching, and delightful actress---and a real MOVIE STAR.

(The same goes for Lana Turner---from 1937 to the late '40s.)

I really enjoyed the hell out of it. Dicey, saucy melodrama, and for the first time, I actually thought Barry Sullivan was an interesting actor (never much cared for him before).

"Whatever Happened To Baby Jane"

The similarities between the two characters in that film and my own mother and aunt is disturbing. I once told aunt Betty that she and Esther remind me of Joan Crawford and Bette Davis in "Whatever Happened To Baby Jane". I've been on her shitlist since.
