Extractions: Joan Crawford (1906-1977) was often the movie star the audiences loved to hate. A star whose career began with silents, she was the epitome of the glamomus Hollywood leading lady. Her films chronicle her hard work and ambition as much as her talent, which did not really flourish until she had been in films for nearly 20 years. Crawford proved immensely durable in Hollywood. Hers was a rags to riches story and it took toughness, shrewdness and a formidable single-mindedness to make it happen. The story of her life reads like a B movie. Born Lucille le Sueur in San Antonio, Texas, her parents were separated before she was born and her mother married a vaudeville theater manager. They divorced in 1915, but by then Crawford was hooked - on dancing. She worked as a laundress, waitress and shopgirl, but life got better after she won a Charleston contest. Calling herself Billie Cassin, she danced her way into clubs. A stint in the chorus line of a Broadway show - Innocent Eyes - led to her screen debut as Norma Shearer's standin in Lady of the Night After a series of mediocre silents, MGM sponsored a contest for her in a fan magazine, hoping to give her a new name. The winner came up with 'Joan Crawford'. She became a symbol of the Jazz Age in

Extractions: "She remains an electric presence even in some of her very unsatisfactory movies. Everything about her shone - her hair, her lips, her handsome hands, her graceful strong body and legs, her elegant feet. Everything looked as though it had sprung from nowhere, shining. Perhaps we know too much nowadays about what it takes to make a star and what a price is paid. All I know is that Joan Crawford shone. That's why they called her a star." Anna Raeburn Latest News!!

http://www.imagesjournal.com/issue01/infocus/joan1.htm

Extractions: by Gary Johnson Go to: CAGNEY STANWYCK N o star ever suffered like Joan Crawford. It was her specialty. In movie after movie she was the victim of intolerable daughters, psychotic lovers, lecherous nightclub owners, corrupt politicians, and alcoholic husbands. Clad in pearls and mink, she faced the agonies with her chin held high, while her eyes filled with the tortures that she endured. Possessed She rose to stardom at MGM in the late twenties and early thirties, playing a series of women with lower-class origins who struggled to succeed in the big city. At this time in her career, Joan was stunningly beautiful. Too often we think of her as the matronly figure of Mildred Pierce (with melodramatically-thick eyebrows sweeping across her forehead), but in her early career, Joan played jazz-hot babies who danced till dawn in movies such as Our Dancing Daughters (1928), her first big success. And this image was reflected in her personal life as Joan's till-all-hours exploits frequently made fodder for the gossip columns. Settling into the depression era, MGM softened her flapper-girl image with

Extractions: Joan Crawford was born Lucille Fay LeSueur on March 23, 1908 in San Antonio, Texas. She was the product of a broken home before she was born in that her parents already separated before she was born. Her Mother had a hard time keeping husbands having been married three times. This effected her throughout her life. Joan's Quotes 'I need sex for a clear complexion, but I'd rather do it for love.' 'Helga, I am not mad at you. I am mad at the dirt.' (from the movie "Mommie Dearest") 'Take away the pop eyes, the cigarette and those funny clipped words and what have you got? She's phony, but I guess the public likes that.' (about Bette Davis) 'There's nothing wrong with my tits but I don't go around throwing them in people's faces.' (about Marliyn Monroe) 'I think the most important thing a woman can have next to her talent, of course, is her hairdresser.'
Bright Lights Film Journal | Joan Crawford
During an astonishing fiftyyear career, joan crawford kept her name blazing in letters of fire. You could dislike her, but you could not ignore her.
http://www.brightlightsfilm.com/19/19_crawford.html

Extractions: BY HOWARD MANDELBAUM During an astonishing fifty-year career, Joan Crawford kept her name blazing in letters of fire. You could dislike her, but you could not ignore her. She was simply too big to be overlooked. Everything about her was oversize: her eyes, brows, mouth, jawline, shoulders, and of course, her gestures. In movie-star mythology, she was the original Cinderella Girl. Born to severe poverty and domestic unrest, she pulled herself up by her bra straps through hard work and determination. "Self-improvement" was her watch-word. Private joys and sorrows and professional slips and comebacks were recounted by newspapers and magazines to be digested like Hershey bars by an eager public. Ignorant shopgirls, waitresses, and factory slavies found inspiration and wish fulfillment in MGM 's scrubbed-up version of the Crawford saga. Mannequin sums up the genre. Crawford's Jessie Cassidy overcomes tremendous obstacles, eventually climbing out of the slums and into the arms of industrialist Spencer Tracy. What could be more American than upward mobility? In the skilled hands of director Frank Borzage, cliches become emotionally truthful. Unfortunately, few of the lady's other '30s vehicles have much aesthetic value. Adrian seems to be the auteur of most of them. Watching Chained is like flipping through a 1934 issue of Vogue.

Extractions: Una de las actrices más importantes y glamourosas de todos los tiempos. Joan Crawford nació como Lucille Fay LeSuer en San Antonio, estado de Texas el 23 de marzo de 1904. Como sus padres se habían separado, Joan vivió en diferentes Estados a la par que conocía a los diferentes esposos de su madre. Gran aficionada al canto y al baile, ganó a los 19 años un concurso de charlestón lo que le otorgó la posibilidad de viajar hasta Hollywood para integrarse como corista y bailarina de la Metro Goldwyn Mayer, momento en el que cambiaría su nombre real por el definitivo de Joan Crawford. Debutó a mediados de los años 20 en "Lady of the night" (1925) pero no sería hasta "Vírgenes modernas" (1928), un film dirigido por Harry Beaumont cuando Joan lograría ser conocida por el público estadounidense. Durante toda la década de los 30 fue una de las más populares estrellas de la Metro haciendo en muchas ocasiones pareja con Clark Gable y participando en destacados títulos como "Amor en venta" (1931) de Clarence Brown, "Gran Hotel" (1932) de Edmund Goulding, "Así ama la mujer" (1934) de Brown o "Mujeres" (1939) de George Cukor. Con Gable compartiría cartel nada más y nada menos que en ocho ocasiones. La última sería en "Strange Cargo" (1940) de Frank Borzage. Los años 40 supondrían un cambio de estudio, ya que Crawford se marcharía (debido a que su popularidad comenzaba a decaer) a comienzos de década de la Metro para recalar en 1943 en la Warner.

Extractions: Joan Crawford was born, Lucille Fay LeSuer, on March 23, 1908 in San Antonio, Texas. She was the product of a broken home before she was born in that her parents were already separated before the birth. Her mother had trouble keeping husbands after having married three times. Joan was fond of dancing and had entered several dance contests. She wanted a career in show business because it was much more glamorous than the odd jobs she was working. One dance contest she won landed her in a chorus line. Before long, Joan found herself dancing in the big cities of the Mid-West and along the Atlantic coast. After almost two years dancing, Joan decided to take a chance and packed her bags and moved to Los Angeles, California and the movie colony of Hollywood. She felt movies might afford her a chance of fame and glory and she was determined to succeed. Not long after arriving in California, Joan got her first bit role as a showgirl in PRETTY LADIES in 1925. Three other films quickly followed. Although the roles weren't much to speak of, Joan continued to toil away. Throughout 1927 and the first part of 1928, Joan was handed menial roles. That ended with the role of Diana Medford in OUR DANCING DAUGHTERS. That film was the one to get her elevated to star status. She had made the tough hurdle of making the "big time". Now she was faced with another.
