Oscar winner and Hollywood legend Joan Crawford died in 1977. The next year, Joan's daughter Christina released her infamous memoir, MOMMIE DEAREST. Suddenly, Joan Crawford, once a symbol of grit and glamour, was synonymous with child abuse. It took three years for the book to be adapted for the screen, but in 1981 -- fifty years ago -- the film was released, featuring Oscar winner Faye Dunaway as Joan. Most of the people involved probably believed they were creating a significant film about an important subject. But instead, the movie - with it's over-the-top performances and quotable quotes, instead became a camp classic. If you've never seen it, please watch it with at least three friends with a dark sense of humor, then come back and listen to our latest. And bring the axe.
