Joan Crawford is the one person I feel absolutely conflicted about.

I understand why you feel that way. She was a brilliant actress, but she definitely took advantage of the casting couch. She went after what she wanted, and usually got it, but the means by which she did this weren't always acceptable. I admired her, but not her ways.

I don't think it's her approach to business that people dislike(d) about her...

I really like her as an actress, which is all she ever intended for me to know about. As for her private life, it's none of my business, and most of what we hear about it has been made up, anyway.
