[QUOTE="ClassyCo, post: 332830, member: 7"] I just wish someone would give us a good documentary about the history of Grande Dame Guignol. I've seen little video essays out there and there's the AMC Backstory episode concerning the production of CHARLOTTE, but that's about all we got. While the genre isn't necessarily full of quality films, it was a defining sub-genre in the 1960s and into the 1970s. Many actresses "of a certain age" could only find work in such hagsploitation-type films. For instance, all of Crawford's post-BABY JANE work could be grouped as a mere attempt to duplicate the original's success. [/QUOTE]
