Faye Dunaway stars as the biggest mother of them all: Joan Crawford. As she clutches at the pearls of her status as Hollywood Royalty, racing to keep from being phased out of the scene, Joan adopts a baby girl in the hopes of breathing new life into her public image. As her darling angel Christina Crawford begins to grow up, mother and daughter begin to butt heads, and the flames of family drama are fanned into an outright inferno. The ultimate exercise in camp, glamour, and deliciously wicked acting, Mommie Dearest is a definitive cult classic.
(Frank Perry, US, 1981, 128 min, in English)
