[QUOTE="Crimson, post: 272057, member: 5079"] Dunaway has often expressed a self-pitying resentment of the impact MOMMIE DEAREST had on her career, but has she ever expressed any regret towards what a hatchet job she did on Joan (especially considering that Joan spoke highly of her)? Crawford probably deserved whatever damage was done to her image from Christina's allegations, but it wasn't the book the all-but destroyed Joan's memory. It was the film -- exaggerated and not even particularly accurate to Christina's claims -- that wrecked Joan, in large part due to Dunaway's monstrous performance. (And I'll pause for a moment to consider the gross irony of a woman who was a dutiful adherent of Hollywood for decades being so thoroughly trashed by it.) [/QUOTE]
