The HORROR it is.
15 September 2008
One of the best women acting i have ever seen. I was chilled to my bones. Jesus how well madness is portrayed here by Faye Dunaway. I was thinking even to quit smoking ;).

Anyway it's a biography of Joan Crawford the famous actress who - due to her ambition - losses sanity step by step. Seen through her adopted child Christina eyes. We can see how quickly those children had to grow up seeing their mommy breaking apart. We can also understand better to families in agony. This movie was made after a book Christina wrote. Christina being played by underdog actress Diana Scarwid.

In my opinion it goes side by side with The Shining or Psycho. I will surely try to see more Faye Dunaway movies in near future.
