More in Movies Â» In Theaters Critics' Go to Complete Biography Â» From All Movie Guide: Joan Crawford was not an actress; she was a movie star. The distinction is a crucial one: She infrequently appeared in superior films, and her work was rarely distinguished regardless of the material, yet she enjoyed one of the most successful and longest-lived careers in cinema history. Glamorous and over the top, stardom was seemingly Crawford's birthright; everything about her, from her rags-to-riches story to her constant struggles to remain in the spotlight, made her ideal fodder for the Hollywood myth factory. Even in death she remained a high-profile figure thanks to the publication of her daughter's infamous tell-all book, an outrageous film biography, and numerous revelations of a sordid private life. Ultimately, Crawford was melodrama incarnate, a wide-eyed, delirious prima donna whose story endures as a definitive portrait of motion picture fame, determination, and relentless ambition.

Extractions: skip to main skip to sidebar During the early 1930s, Crawford modified her image to better fit the hard-scrabble conditions of Depression-era America. In this new role, she played a glamorized version of the working girl who relied on her intelligence, looks and sheer determination to get ahead in life. This persona was fully realized in Possessed (1931), where Crawford was teamed with Clark Gable. During production, the two stars began an affair that resulted in an ultimatum from studio chief Louis B. Mayer to Gable that the affair end. Gable chose his career over the relationship, although their affair would resume spasmodically and secretly for many years. Upon release, Possessed was an enormous hit. Crawford achieved continued success with Letty Lynton (1932) The film is mostly remembered today because of the Letty Lynton dress, designed by Adrian: a white cotton organdy gown with large mutton sleeves, puffed at the shoulder. It was with this gown that Crawford's broad shoulders began to be accentuated by costume; this would become a trademark for the actress along with, later in her career, emphasized eyebrows and ankle strap shoes. When the Letty Lynton dress was copied by Macy's in 1932, it sold over 500,000 replicas nationwide. Following the success of Possessed, Gable was starred in a series of steamy pairings opposite Crawford, in which they established themselves as a formidable romantic duo of the 1930s. Their rollicking smash hit Dancing Lady (1933), in which Crawford received top billing over Gable, was the only movie to feature Robert Benchley, Nelson Eddy, Fred Astaire and the Three Stooges all together in one movie. Crawford's next two movies with Gable, Chained (1934) and Forsaking All Others (also 1934), were both big hits, being among the top money makers of the mid-1930s, and marked Crawford's peak at MGM as a popular star at the box office.

Mai in New York City ) war eine US-amerikanische Filmschauspielerin Die Schauspielerin ¤uerte sich in sp¤teren Jahren stets kritisch ¼ber ihre Kindheit, die von Armut und emotionaler Vernachl¤ssigung gekennzeichnet waren. Sie schilderte ihre Mutter als antrieblose Frau, die von einer ungl¼cklichen Beziehung in die n¤chste wechselte. Das Verh¤ltnis zu ihrem Bruder Hal, den Crawford als manipulativ und faul bezeichnete, war von Anfang an gespannt, obwohl sie ihn in sp¤teren Jahren finanziell unterst¼tzte. Den leiblichen Vater Thomas LeSueur traf sie 1934 ein einziges Mal kurz w¤hrend einer Drehpause wieder. Nach der Grundschule ging Lucille auf die St. Agnes Academy, eine katholische Schule in Kansas City. Die Schauspielerin beschrieb die Zeit dort als unangenehm. Die anderen Sch¼lerinnen h¤tten ihr stets das Gef¼hl vermittelt, nur geduldet zu sein. Sp¤ter, nachdem ihre Mutter sich von Henry Cassin getrennt hatte, ging Lucille an die Rockingham Academy. 1922 schrieb sie sich am Stephens College in Columbia, Missouri ein, wo sie ihr Geburtsdatum mit 1906 angab.

BY HOWARD MANDELBAUM During an astonishing fifty-year career, Joan Crawford kept her name blazing in letters of fire. You could dislike her, but you could not ignore her. She was simply too big to be overlooked. Everything about her was oversize: her eyes, brows, mouth, jawline, shoulders, and of course, her gestures. In movie-star mythology, she was the original Cinderella Girl. Born to severe poverty and domestic unrest, she pulled herself up by her bra straps through hard work and determination. "Self-improvement" was her watch-word. Private joys and sorrows and professional slips and comebacks were recounted by newspapers and magazines to be digested like Hershey bars by an eager public. Ignorant shopgirls, waitresses, and factory slavies found inspiration and wish fulfillment in MGM 's scrubbed-up version of the Crawford saga.

Though her career declined with the studio system itself in the 1950s, Crawford soldiered on in her chosen profession, bringing a touch of old Hollywood glamour to the industry in an era that was no longer worthy of her.
