[QUOTE="Crimson, post: 270966, member: 5079"] I'm particularly fond of mid-era Crawford: MILDRED PIERCE through SUDDEN FEAR. She was still beautiful, but in a flintier way than in her MGM years; yet not the mannish gorgon she became in the mid-50s. Except for GOODBYE, MY FANCY (Crawford was terrible at comedy) and THE WOMAN IS DANGEROUS (which I haven't seen), I like all of Joan's films from this era. Most of them are preposterous, noir-ish melodramas; which is exactly what I love them. For me, it's a toss-up between THE DAMNED DON'T CRY or FLAMINGO ROAD for peak Crawford. HARRIET CRAIG is underrated and, IMO, possibly the closest to Joan in real life. [ATTACH type="full"]27214[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
