Tuesday 9 October , FIERCE: the UNTAMEABLE JOAN
Friday 7 July 2018, London. Running at BFI Southbank from Wednesday 1 August – Tuesday 9 October, FIERCE: THE UNTAMEABLE JOAN CRAWFORD, will be a major season of 20 films starring the incomparable JOAN CRAWFORD, spanning a period of more than 40 years working in Hollywood. One of the most iconic actors to have ever graced the silver-screen, Joan Crawford’s tumultuous personal life, which included four marriages, and a highly publicised falling-out with two of her children (including Christina, who wrote the tell-all memoir Mommie Dearest), has often detracted from her supreme acting talents. Despite being labelled ‘box-office poison’ towards the end of the 1930s, Crawford could never be deterred, slowly regaining her leading-lady status and eventually winning an Oscar for the iconic melodrama Mildred Pearce (Michael Curtiz, 1945). FIERCE: THE UNTAMEABLE JOAN CRAWFORD will offer audiences a chance to see beyond the complicated personal life; from her early years as a flapper during the silent era to her middle-age melodramas and late-career genre resurgence, Joan Crawford was a cinematic chameleon who always dominated the screen with her formidable presence. The season will include extended runs of two of her best-loved films, George Cukor’s The Women (1939), which zings with whip-smart dialogue and ruthless high-society politics, and Mildred Pearce (Michael Curtiz, 1945) for which Crawford famously received her Best Actress Oscar in bed, blaming her absence from the ceremony on sickness. Both films will be re-released in selected cinemas across the UK by Park Circus on Friday 17 August and play on extended run at BFI Southbank.

A mystery?… A detective story? ... A love story? …Yes and more! More indeed, because one can also argue that in its use of many vampiric/gothic motifs – in technical aspects, in themes and tropes, in the performances of the two leads, and in the “strange” (to use the Victorian code word for alternative sexuality) relationship between Hitchcock and his star Tippi Hedren – Marnie is the closest he comes in his oeuvre to a film about the undead.
