Such a fascinating family history there! ...Hi Chris<br />Such a fascinating family history there! It's to hard to think of anyone you'd meet in contemporary show business who would make for interesting stories in later years. <br />I like Dunaway a great deal in "Mommie Dearest" too, and I guess as you say, the limb she went out on was a gamble, just one that didn't pay off. I can't think of another major star Ken Andersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04940648971296673233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5739955.post-57253143553240345532015-03-23T11:00:15.576-07:002015-03-23T11:00:15.576-07:00Hey Bill - thanks for stopping by!

Judy always said that Lorna had the best voice in the family technically, but Liza got all theangelman66https://www.blogger.com/profile/16471674180789592940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5739955.post-59432226761497973562015-03-23T10:25:15.612-07:002015-03-23T10:25:15.612-07:00I'm going to forward your post on this telefil...I'm going to forward your post on this telefilm to a good friend of mine who is a major fan of Garland's (and which I'm always teasing him about, good-naturedly). I don't know if he saw this film, but he did see the Broadway show "End of the Rainbow" and hated it! I read Luft's book years ago and remember that the telefilm did indeed downplay her own role in the Williamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03053290865549099074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5739955.post-1929866077164292992015-03-20T05:38:44.772-07:002015-03-20T05:38:44.772-07:00Hi Ken!

Yes, this is definitely worth a second look when you are in the mood...Judy Davis is remarkable and the storyline is quite accurate...<br /><br />I LOVE Faye Dunaway as Joan Crawford...I really really thought she captured it brilliantly...a heightened version, to be sure, but just watch Torch Song or I Saw What You Did and we easily see what inspired Faye.

You're the one that's been on a role with interesting posts this year!<br />Thanks for reminding me of this film remember liking a great deal when it was first broadcast, but which I haven't seen since.<br />Fun reading about your youthful fascination with Judy Grland, and how great is it that your mother actually met her!<br /><br />I read the book before seeing the film and, Ken Andersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04940648971296673233noreply@blogger.com
