Faye Dunaway delivers an unforgettable portrayal of Hollywood screen icon Joan Crawford in Mommie Dearest, a cult classic that alerted a generation of film fans to the dangers of wire clothes hangers. The story chronicles, in horrific detail, the actress's relationship with her adopted daughter (Diana Scarwid) who bore the brunt of Crawford's alcoholism, perfectionism, and abusive behavior. Director Frank Perry loosely adapted Christina Crawford's memoirs for the screen; the result is a Joan Crawford who is partly biographical and partly an amalgam of her various on-screen alter egos. The initial box-office failure of Mommie Dearest nearly destroyed Dunaway's career, but she is amazing in the role, managing to generate sympathy and understanding for the film's undeniably grotesque heroine. Most importantly, she has the kind of overwhelming star power that keeps the viewers' eyes glued to the screen. Part horror film, part melodrama, this deliciously perverse and lavishly produced spectacle is high quality camp at its most entertaining. Amy Robinson, Barnes & Noble
