I was about to comment the same thing. Joan was known more for her sophisticated yet strong characters in movies. Attractive, but not branded as a sex symbol. Modern actresses like Julianne Moore come to mind. Far cry from Angelina Jolie or Michelle Pfeiffer.

@@RH-td7vc Joan Crawford was the most beautiful woman in the world in the decade of the 30's. And his image in the 40's with those shoulder pads, eyebrows and angry face were spectacular. And an actress will never have that image again. And none of the ones you have named reaches the talent of Crawford. None of them lasted as long on the Hollywood throne as Joan. And the Crawford movies grossed more than all of them put together. Joan is also a sexual symbol but of an empowered woman. She is not the typical girl with a lot of tits and a lot of silicone. Oh and Angelina Jolie is the reincarnation of Joan Crawford. If you like Angelina you like Joan.

@@11rokerito Sorry but Greta Garbo, Delores Del Rio, Vivian Leigh, and Hedy Lamarr were the top beauties of the 30s

Colin Wilson Yeah Rita Hayworth was the girl of the 1940s but the actress that was closer to Marilyn Monroe was Veronica lake she was the Marilyn Monroe of the 40s

@@RH-td7vc but Joan was the “reigning queen of Hollywood” during the 30s. She was the highest paid actor back then.

Davis has always been underrated. This was a vituoso performance.

So was this interview after she rejected her

@@anonymoushuman8443 way after , it was in the late 40s when Marilyn was mostly obscure

tmmaston they still sell 100% proof? Smirnoff ?

100 proof vodka that she keeps in her children’s suitcases

@@Lilyugiproductions She was good with her children!

🤣🤣🤣🤣

@@traceylatifi9304 yes, the twins have REPEATEDLY and CONSTANTLY refuted Toxic Tina's accounts and actually sued her for slander. The twins have consistently stated that while Joan may have been a disciplinarian, she was NOT abusive or cruel. Even Joan's assistant who Toxic Tina stated was in the room when Joan allegedly strangled Tina has stated that that exchange never happened but rather tells a very different story of how Christina was intensely jealous of her mother, even when Joan had gotten her (Tina) various acting gigs; the directors of which stated Christina was grossly untalented and could not/would not take any direction. It seems despite her stating she hated her mother and the Crawford name, her only claim to fame is slagging her mother's name and legacy in a 40-plus year "Greatest Hits Tour".

The DVD version is bringing in tons of cash. As a result, this will never be on Netflix.

I know I ended up buying the season and I haven’t bought a movie or show in years

Its on Hulu now

Fabian Fernandez- it WAS XD

Cuties is sinking Netflix.

Joan was great until she got that butch haircut and teamed up with younger leading men

well she is a gossip columnist, stirring the pot is her expertise 🙂

Hedda Hopper was vicious. And powerful. If you didn't play ball with her, she could ruin your career. Louella Parsons was even worse. She made Countess Dracula look like Little Mary Sunshine.

I have a book in which this girl is found to be Marilyn in her past life. During her regression, she abused Joan and Bette Davis.

@@SymphonyBrahms Imagine the ghost of Hedda Hopper and Louella Parsons getting into it with Wendy Williams

And she still act like that for most of the series 😂😂

Hooper was a vicious venomous, vulgar, viper of a machete mouthed columnist who HAD destroyed so many careers--- Charlie Chaplin, Dorothy Danridge, Ingrid Bergman, etc. She was instrumental in getting so many actors/actresses Black Listed. I think the one person who stood up to her was Clark Gable and Elizabeth Taylor was also known to have absolutely hated her and would not even give her the time of day. I read somewhere that it was Elizabeth Taylor who advised Marylin Monroe to avoid Hopper as Taylor thought of her as being just plain evil. People thought Monroe was some dumb blonde, but she was a little bit smarter than people or even herself let on.

If you really think about it, Joan adopted her children for clout.

EXACTLY! I mean talk about Hagsploitation! What they did to BOTH Bette Davis and Joan Crawford in this abysmal series was disgusting. Even in their separate interviews, they maintained civility concerning each other, even when one reporter mispronounced Bette's name, Joan was visibly appalled and corrected him on the spot. Even Bette who could be a venomous Bitter Pill, made it very clear that there was never the level of fighting and hatred that the press imagined there was. She stated that first off, the studio would NEVER tolerate that sort of behavior and that it would be beneath both of them, including Joan Crawford. Bette made it clear always maintained that Joan was the first person on the set, knew her lines and was professional. Bette may have hated Joan's vanity and "airs" as she put it and never forgave Joan for her Oscar stunt (which has been proven false.. neither Joan nor Bette had that much power over the academy and neither were truly in the running due to ageism and the fact the Academy was after younger actresses as evidenced by who won) but she had to praise her work ethic. She REALLY praised the late Joan Crawford after having then recently worked with Faye Dunnaway. Bette left NO ambiguity with regards to her true feelings for Dunnaway. She despised her. When reporters then tried to force comparisons between Dunnaway and Crawford, not only did Bette torch the book on which "Mommie Dearest" was based, but made it very clear that "miss crawford did not deserve that'.. and in her last few interviews made it clear that Joan Crawford was always always a professional while Dunnaway was.. NOT.. And brought the receipts as to why she thought so; Dunnaway forcing Davis and the entire crew to wait for nearly two hours in a hot arena/building while Dunnaway took her time getting ready before appearing.

Hedda often wore a hat. And most actresses (past or present) cannot stand competition. It's why actresses of the same league can never be friends.

if you look at photos of Hedda even as late as the 60s she was wearing those outrageous hats. She tried to look the glamorous actress even though her own acting career tanked decades before. So Machete Mouthing is all this evil vile, Quaker Quill stabbing Puritan knew how to do.

Her hat looks like it came from a Halloween costume.
