I have a confession to make, my first time hearing the name Joan Crawford was from the movie Mommie Dearest. The campy and amazing movie based off of the I believe untrue accounts of child abuse levied against her by her daughter Christina Crawford. Because of that for years I didn't watch any of her Bette and Joan: The Divine Feud but I finally came to my senses and have over the years slowly made my way through her Bette and Joan: The Divine Feud and I must admit I prefer her campy horror movies I'm a terrible perso This book is bonkers!!! Because of that for years I didn't watch any of her movies but I finally came to my senses and have over the years slowly made my way through her catalog and I must admit I prefer her campy horror movies I'm a terrible person I know. I had no idea that the frail looking old lady in that film was an iconic and legendary actress. If you haven't seen Wicked Stepmother and you love campy awful movies I highly recommend you see it. Alright confessions over now on to the review. I love Old Hollywood biographies. This two woman were best frenemies before that term existed. Both woman were smart, talented, and driven and in a perfect world they should have been friends. They spent 40 years in a petty passive aggressive feud. I love petty feuds, I absolutely love it every time Mariah Carey swears she doesn't know Jennifer Lopez she knows her. Its fun, fast paced, gossip filled, candid,and unbelievable. Its two biographies of two legends for the price of one. If you love splashy biographies or if you enjoyed the tv show I highly recommend you read this book. View all 16 comments. I love watching old Hollywood movies and learning about the actors and actresses that influence actors and actresses after them. Over the years, I have also grown to enjoy reading biographies of people that inspire me and that I find fascinating. The best biographies offer both juicy details and extensively researched facts, and this book is bursting at the seams with both. How lucky am I that this book gave us 2 in 1!? The chapters within this story are divided into segments, which makes for quick and easy reading. One of my favorite things about this book was that there are plenty of quotes Bette and Joan: The Divine Feud fellow actors, family members, and members of the press to provide a general outlook on the ladies and not just one point of view. In truth, I was concerned that a biography dealing with two stars instead of just one would lack focus, jumping back and forth between two disparate lives without cohesion. The very beginning of this book feels that way, as the two stars did indeed have very different origins, but this is a good thing as it leads us readers to develop our own opinions of them. I greatly enjoyed listening to this book and getting to know more about these actresses. Any arguments that I had or ever will have are nothing in comparison to these ladies. There were Bette and Joan: The Divine Feud that I laughed out loud, talked to myself, and nodded in approval of what I read, which earned me a few looks from people. For mega fans of these actresses, I should warn you that not all of their films are discussed, as there are too many to mention them all, but a variety of unsuccessful and beloved ones are here. I know I greatly enjoyed learning more about these formidable and great women in Bette and Joan: The Divine Feud own respects. View all 4 comments. Jan 01, James rated it really liked it. I have been obsessed with old Hollywood biographies for a while now, and had heard from several trusted sources that this was one of the best. I initially was concerned that a biography dealing with two stars instead of just one would lack focus, jumping back and forth between two disparate lives without cohesion. The very beginning of this book feels that way, as the two stars did indeed have very different origins. However, Considine manages to maintain a brisk pace and brings it all together rather quickly. Even before the ladies meet or share any association, it is easy to be drawn into their individual stories. Fortunately, their lives become intertwined fairly quickly. That fear was also quickly laid to rest. The author is aware that he must produce as accurate a picture as Bette and Joan: The Divine Feud of both actresses, and not pull any punches. He accomplishes his task of impartiality by sharing some rather unpleasant tales of both. We want dirt. We want diva bitches. And dirty, diva bitches is exactly what you get here. Younger readers may be unaware that these women—arguably the top two female stars of their time—hated eachother with a burning passion. It was fairly common knowledge in Hollywood at the time, however. The growing enmity between them is well-documented with an extensive bibliography and sources including close friends and industry insiders, and goes well beyond the scathing tell-alls their respective daughters wrote about them. The reader will be left unable to choose sides, which is the mark of a great compare and contrast biographical work. You may walk away from this book still respecting both of these legends as actresses, and you may even doubt the veracity of some of the information especially if it is provided by daughters Christina Crawford and BD Hyman. However, you will also have some insight into a darker side of the old Hollywood system and how ruthless those at the top had to be to get to where they were. So head over to the bookstore or Amazon where used copies I think are selling for a penny and pick up a copy. Delicious, gossipy trash awaits. View 1 comment. Where to start This book definitely does not flatter either actress when it comes to their rise to stardom. Both are portrayed as scheming, conniving, unstrung harpies who seemingly spent most of their lives trying to outdo the other. Apps | FX Networks By Robert Rorke. February 26, am Updated February 27, pm. She Bette and Joan: The Divine Feud it coldly, deliberately and with complete ruthlessness. What a lovely frock! Davis felt glamour girl Crawford was nowhere near her league when it came to being a serious actress. That says a lot about their natures as actresses. Crawford signed on first, but knew she needed the perfect co-star to make it a career-reviving hit. Putting ego aside, she flew to New York and asked her rival to take the part. For years, she claimed that Bette tried to steal. Franchot Tone. It was odd that she felt Bette was the only person for that part. At a press conference for their contract signings, Davis snagged the best Bette and Joan: The Divine Feud at the table — ensuring that her name would appear first in photo captions. Now, her name would be first. Davis in particular had a knack for using Bette and Joan: The Divine Feud subtle, sly touch when twising the knife. While filming, Davis spontaneously kicked her co-star in the head during a fight scene. I will never forget the look she gave me. Hush, Sweet Charlotte. The part was recast with Olivia de Havilland. When Crawford passed away inthe feud did not die with her. Joan Crawford is dead. Read Next. Big studios nearly struck out in Oscars' Best Picture cate This story has been shared 97, times.

She plans to check on her ailing and mentally unstable mother and then leave. But Tilly decides to remain in order to reconnect with her mother and unravel the mystery of why she was banished and why she feels “cursed”... an obsession with the past that needs to be exorcised. However, though regarded as an outcast and even a “murderess” by the town gossips, Tilly's exquisite fashion dresses prove irresistible to the town's drab womenfolk. But as her dresses begin to arouse competition and envy in town, causing resentments to surface, it becomes clear that Tilly's mind is set on a darker design: exacting revenge on those who wronged her, in the most spectacular fashion!

  • By DAVID LESER Two Years After Heath Ledger Scandalised Sections
    By DAVID LESER Two years after Heath Ledger scandalised sections of middle America with his near- miraculous performance as a gay cowboy, he would light up the screen with another tour de force, this time as the lovelorn, heroin-soaked poet, Dan, in the Australian cult movie, Candy. Little known outside Australia, this film was based on a loosely autobiographical book of the same name written by Australian author, Luke Davies. In the film Ledger somehow managed to find his way inside the twisted, twilight world of the drug addict. I pull the syringe from her arm and drop it on the table and hold my thumb down over the tiny hole I’ve made. I release the tie with my other hand. Candy looks down at her arm like a child who’s relieved that the innoculation is over. Then she says, mmmm, and her facial muscles relax and she lies back on the bed and says, that is heaps better. Heaps better. Fuck oh God. Fuck fuck fuck. This is the best. Oh God, this is awesome. This was – as the New York Times commented of Ledger’s role – acting of the first order. “Ledger looks and plays the part of the scheming user exceptionally well. He’s deep in the character’s skin right from the start.” Ledger and his co-star, Abbie Cornish – who recently appeared opposite Cate Blanchett in Elizabeth: The Golden Age - had received their tutoring from an expert, a heroin addict belonging to a Sydney group called “Proud Users.” “Abbie and Heath got lots of lessons with a prosthetic arm on how to inject,” the film’s producer, Margaret Fink told Vanity Fair.
