Joan Crawford is a legend, online there is a whole community of young fans completely unaffected by Mommie Dearest, they truly love her. She gets new fans every year and they may be introduced through Mommie Dearest but they don't stay there. I think Mommie Dearest destroyed Christina and Faye more than it did Crawford, it just added to Crawford's mystique in a way, made her more camp, but didn't take any fans away. I think Feud is just going to make her bigger with young people today, it's bound to be a compassionate and rehabilitative portrayal, not that she needs it, the work speaks for itself and she is still popular and with no push by her state, or online presence, it is remarkable.
What does TCM do to Marilyn? I only have latinamerican TCM which is a 90's movie channel basically. I used to be so in love with Marilyn, I truly adored her, then the fake quotes began and it all went to hell. I just can't identify with her anymore, she's gone from a star that I respected to a meaningless image, like Carmen Miranda. She was even a one note performer, like Miranda. I don't understand what's happening, wish there was some explanation.
I'm always late for everything, so unfair, I love Liz and Madonna more than anybody, and I wasn't around, but the last years were frustrating because the media didn't seem to care about ET and I would usually learn about appearances one or two weeks after the fact.
