[QUOTE="Crimson, post: 397654, member: 5079"] Joan's final years at MGM had some interesting and worthwhile films, but she was on the wrong path. With Garbo and Shearer retired, Joan seemed to think she was heading towards prestige. Crawford, like Stanwyck, was better in disreputable genres; she needed the grittiness of Warner Brothers to hit her peak. She was ideally suited for slick trash like FLAMINGO ROAD, but even she couldn't make nonsense like ABOVE SUSPICION work. [/QUOTE]
