Movie theme music in this documentary?


In this documentary, there is a recurring piece of music from one of Joan's films; I thought it was from "Mildred Pierce" but after hearing a snippet from Max Steiner's music for that film, I don't think that's it. However, I can't place it and it's driving me nuts. It's kind of dramatic (like Joan herself). Can anyone help me with this?

Exactly where in the documentary are you hearing this music? I know that the piano music you hear at the very beginning is actually not from a Joan Crawford movie, it's the main title music from Jerry Goldsmith's score to A PATCH OF BLUE (1965).

Nope, neither of these two. Thanks anyway!

The name of the song is "Temptation" by Nacio "Fred" Brown. It is a truly lovely, dramatic piece and suits Miss Crawford to a "T"!
