Joan is fantastic in this movie. It s the perfect film that shows her wonderful star quality. The beautiful gowns, the melodrama and Joans mannerisms are just perfect. Thank you so much for uploading this gem of a movie.💎
@@Ourladyrules big fan here too. Joan didn't like it though. And her costars Sterling Hayden and Mercedes McCambridge hated working with her. Greetings.
me and my mom (RIP MOM) both loved Joan Crawford, she was a brilliant actress, intense and spot on. ive not seen this one, really excited to watch it. thank you so much for broadcasting this film for us 🎥🎥🎥🥂🥰
@@Ourladyrules We're so glad you've joined us on this cinematic journey. Miss Joan Crawford strutting her stuff in "Queen Bee" like a true screen sensation! Oh, the glamour, the intrigue, the oh-so-delicious tension. Stay tuned for more! Sincerely, Silver Scenes.
Thanks for uploading this movie! It was a like a car wreck I couldn't look away from! I watched it all the way through for Joan's acting. She did such a great job through all that dreck!
I am absolutely spellbound by this fabulous movie! Have seen the majority of Joan Crawford‘s’s movies, I cannot believe I have not watched this one before. I think everyone of the characters are fabulous! They have each succeeded in captivating their own characters - especially Joan. If I may say so I think it’s been terribly overlooked and neglected. Joan should’ve been at least nominated for an Academy. Just leaves me breathless!
Not only was she a wonderful actress, she was extremely hard working and gracious in her personal life... I read her book about her lifestyle, decorating, entertaining, dressing, skincare, makeup, style, etc... She was a consummate perfectionist in the best sense of the word. The notes so graciously written thanking someone for a gift, the attention to detail in all manner of things, special meals prepared for her husband's coworkers at last minute notice and her special platters of cheese, meat, bread and olives for her husband to snack on while working evenings at home. She took care of everything while looking like a million bucks.

at that time, she was requesting a lens filter on closeups, softening and disguising her fading looks. I think she was gorgeous, but didn't age very well, and the heavy makeup didn't help either.
I love these old black N white movies especially Joan Crawford she makes good movies. I love these black N white movies before i was born. Its a comfort movie to relax N watch ❤❤❤
I have this brilliant film on dvd. This is one of my mum's favourite Joan Crawford.'s films. Joan Crawford was one of mum's favourite actresses. Live from the UK. ❤❤❤❤❤
Ooh this was classic Crawford! Over the top make up, hair, gowns and nightwear, some brutal lines and a soap opera to rival Dallas! I am one happy person, if you have any more of this stuff, please share!
I have seen Queen Bee my best friend has e ery Joan Crawford movie. Class and Grace and Honesty 3 of many of Joan's traits. ♥ Love you dear lady of the Silver Screen.
In talking to people over the years, i mention that Joan is my favorite actress and some will say yeah she is alright but I like Bette Davis. I like Bette too. Every actress has her own manorisoms whether it be their speech eyes movements etc. Joan stands proud ♥ in her way, just like Bette does in hers. But Joan will always be The Queen Bee 🐝
@@kathleenking47 Amen Sister ..I realize that people look at the movies of today and compare them with the Golden Age. I get a warm feeling when I watch vintage movies and TV 📺 People with common sense appreciate those simpler times enjoy a picnic lunch or a ride in the country in the families big Buick sedan. Thank you for your like and take a step back and enjoy your day ☺
What an incredible masterpiece in every possible way; the story (is it from a play?), the mindblowing acting, the cinematography, the editing, the music -good lord the music! I wasn't even born when this gem was made but i grew up with this perfection and everytime i'm getting out of a theatre today (and i go often) i'm like; yeah that was all right and i forget all about it a few hours later. I know i will NEVER FORGET that movie. What happened? What the hell happened? We could'nt have fallen from grace that fast, that hard in 60 years. I don't get it .
The film's exploration of power dynamics, family secrets, and emotional turbulence encapsulates the quintessential melodramatic elements that characterized many films of the era. We live for Joan and films that leave an indelible mark like Old Hollywood did so well. Sincerely, Silver Scenes.
Thank you. THANK YOU. *THANK YOU* !!!!! I've been wanting to see this movie forever!!!!! The staircase in the beginning of the movie kinda looks like the staircase in Mommie Dearest. That woman....Sue. Drove me nuts, trying to figure out who the actress was so I checked the credits. NO WAY!!!! FAY WRAY! She looks so different with dark hair!
Christina Crawford is a grifter who lied. If you do some research, you can uncover her lies. She hated Joan and coveted Joan's fame. What she couldn't have, she vowed to destroy.
Extremely dysfunctional family but makes for gr8 entertainment. Only in a movie would that many people put up with so much abrasive constant anger. Today people would just walk out.
from what I've read about the backstage drama that went on during her films in that period, she was truly the Queen Bee on her sets.. Getting older, her looks fading, and being insecure around younger female talent , she held on to that reign of power that she had.
I made as mistake above---Joan Crawford WAS in Harriet Craig, in 1950, which was a re-make of Craig's Wife, a 1936 film, which starred Rosalind Russell. Craig's Wife is an excellent film. I have not yet seen Harriet Craig, I look forward to it.
Lovevthe old first black and white talkies .i loved Joan i thought her a great actress she worked hard to become known in the spot light and was determined to become famous into the spotlight.years later she became known and lovedvfor her movies.godbless youJoan.🙏rest in peace amen🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🌹
@maggiemae7539 …These old movies are full of things, now in hindsight. I have watched a few that had 56 on doors or trains. (king Charles’s coronation date) 😉 🌷
I'm not sure if it's the hair or the part she is playing but I find Miss Crawford very ugly in this movie. But, she is ABSOLUTELY MARVELOUS!!!! Love it!❤❤
I never saw this film until now. And it is as I imagined It could be. Camp and.. Ridiculously funny. Crawford's films never really let you down. Would it also be possible to upload "Flamingo Road"? Which was shot after "Mildred Pierce".. Thanks so much for this classic "Trash Camp" 👌
At 5314, the wedding dinner scene. The necklace that Jones is wearing is the same necklace she wore to the 1963 Oscars the night she accept the award for Anne Bancroft, who won over Bette Davis.
Wow, Joan played that malignant narcissist very well! I knew when her husband looked at the gun case, what he was going to do. A little too unrealistic at 1 hour and 18 seconds, though
I read that Joan Crawfords daughter Christina left the theater during the screening of this film. Joan's portrayal of Evie was so reminiscent of her actual personality when she was drinking - that it gave Christina cold chills .
I just love old b&w movies! Especially with the old stars like Joan Crawford! Thanks!
A film that takes us back to a time when Hollywood's magic was at its peak!
YES!
Catch Joan's performance in the 1950's movie Johnny Guitar. one of her best performances ever. 🥂
I agree with U on that I love old black N white movies. It's before I was born which is Y I love watching them ❤❤
Me too!
Joan Crawford is an amazing actress and always great to watch in these old films
Joan is fantastic in this movie. It s the perfect film that shows her wonderful star quality. The beautiful gowns, the melodrama and Joans mannerisms are just perfect. Thank you so much for uploading this gem of a movie.💎
whatever role she played, no one could sell it like Joan, she was brilliant ❤❤❤
PS, on of my favourite Joan movies is her starring role in the film Johnny Guitar. i highly recommend it. cheers

She communicates SO much of her character with those subtle mannerisms.

Joan Crawford's wardrobe is just magnificent!
It was, and she modelled the gowns so beautifully, sitting with them spread round her, and walking down the stairs with the train arranged just so!
10's across the board. Our dream wardrobe! Sincerely, Silver Scenes.
That COAT Joan wears for her entrance. Wow, would LOVE to wear that!
These classic movies are the best
I love Joan Crawford and Bette Davis! Their beautiful movies help me to get through the happy and not so happy days. Bless them both. ❤️🙏😇

Love how she fluffs out her Jean Louis gown on the landing and then slowly and regally descends the stairs----no one could do it like Joan!!
She was wearing a nice gown.
It's great fun when Joan gets her screen filter in every close up shot 😊
What was her age in this movie?
@@jjplaw2576 She was 52, playing 40 something in this film, or maybe even less 😄
She looked beautiful in
" Sudden Fear "
I love her hard work, determination and ambition..
She kept that body in shape.
at that time, she was requesting a lens filter on closeups, softening and disguising her fading looks. I think she was gorgeous, but didn't age very well, and the heavy makeup didn't help either.
Nowadays filters are used on 20 somethings! 😢
Jean Louis was everywhere in these classy meladramas!! The gowns are always so beautiful!
Such a great movie, Thanks for the upload. I can't get enough of Joan Crawford's acting. She dwarfs any actor/actress.
i agree 💯🥂
What a marvelous journey we've taken, back to the days of Old Hollywood's enchantment. Sincerely, Silver Scenes.

check out Joan Crawford in the 1950's film Johnny Guitar. she gives a stellar top notch performance. one of her best ever , and well worth seeing. 🥂
Thank you, I will@@Ourladyrules
"Harriet Craig", "Female on the Beach", "Autumn Leaves", "The Story of Esther Costello" are a few.
I've seen them all, I love "Harriet Craig."@@hudson5112
Tubi has several of her movies

It's based on the book.
Joan Crawford movies 🎥 are almost always wonderful! My favorite Joan Crawford vehicle is "Humoresque" with John Garfield. Excellent! The best!

Great movie! Thanks for posting!
Thank You for this amazing picture, they don't make films like this anymore!
She's VERY Crawford! Indeed!
2nd time I've watched this. I watched and listened more closely this time, great movie
Joan Crawford is ❤️❤️🥳
Thank you. THANK YOU. *THANK YOU* !!!!! I've been wanting to see this movie forever!!!!! The staircase in the beginning of the movie kinda looks like the staircase in Mommie Dearest.
That woman....Sue. Drove me nuts, trying to figure out who the actress was so I checked the credits. NO WAY!!!! FAY WRAY! She looks so different with dark hair!
Truly, a performance that leaves us spellbound!
Joan's 'concern' for the child is touching. Mommy Dearest!
Uhuh 😅

I love B&M movies, too.
I like it when she takes the bracelet over to the lamp.😂❤
Thank you!
Thank you! I've always enjoyed this movie!
JOAN AT HER MEANEST IN THIS FILM.....MET HER ONCE....NOTHING LIKE THE ROLES SHE PLAYED....A FINE ACTRESS......
Finally I find that film thanks
Love old movies..Joan Betty and my all time favorite Elizabeth Taylor
Extremely dysfunctional family but makes for gr8 entertainment. Only in a movie would that many people put up with so much abrasive constant anger. Today people would just walk out.
Dianne: you would be surprised : some ppl just live for the drama 👎👎
A most excellent film! Thank you for sharing❤
Wow! I know this is fictional but I know a person just like Eva.
Oh, how awful!! What exactly would you call her personality? Is she narcissistic?
Joan was a GODDESS in this movie!!!!!!!
Thank you so much! Love your channel!
Great Movie !
Been wanting to see this for a long time. Thank you very much.
Looks like Joan played my step-mother perfectly
Great old movie!
LOVE this movie.
Also, Carol played by Betsy Palmer. Is Jason Voorhees mom from the first Friday the 13th
When the kids say “hot mess”? This is that. 😂
Enjoyed this film, there were a few surprises
Put more movie of Joan Crawford,pleaseeeee
This film for years was so hard to find. I ended up buying a DVD finally at some ridiculous price.
Joan, in her malignant narcissist phase. In this film, and HARRIET CRAIG, she really let it fly. Entertaining, no doubt! Joan always brought it!
from what I've read about the backstage drama that went on during her films in that period, she was truly the Queen Bee on her sets.. Getting older, her looks fading, and being insecure around younger female talent , she held on to that reign of power that she had.
@@jeffkiper8199She played the person she really was ! Still a fantastic movie.
She was not in Harriet Craig, that was Rosalind Russell, who was also a fine actress.
@@anglophils645 I think you need to recheck, she was in HG in 1950.
I made as mistake above---Joan Crawford WAS in Harriet Craig, in 1950, which was a re-make of Craig's Wife, a 1936 film, which starred Rosalind Russell. Craig's Wife is an excellent film. I have not yet seen Harriet Craig, I look forward to it.

Wow, this is the first that it's available for free!
Thankyou x
Excellent!
This movie is amazing! So much shade throwing lol
They sure do love their black and white Masonic floors
@maggiemae7539 …These old movies are full of things, now in hindsight. I have watched a few that had 56 on doors or trains. (king Charles’s coronation date) 😉 🌷
I'm not sure if it's the hair or the part she is playing but I find Miss Crawford very ugly in this movie. But, she is ABSOLUTELY MARVELOUS!!!! Love it!❤❤
Horrible make up the eye 👁️ brows are scary 😧 lol
Other movies with Joan please!!!! I rrad that Faye Funaways had ispiration for this role for Mommie dearest
Joan Crawford made a friend of Betsy Palmer that lasted the remainder of her life !
thanks for uploading this love this movie
When that was class. ..👍👍👍😎
I never saw this film until now. And it is as I imagined It could be. Camp and.. Ridiculously funny. Crawford's films never really let you down. Would it also be possible to upload "Flamingo Road"? Which was shot after "Mildred Pierce".. Thanks so much for this classic "Trash Camp" 👌
HELP WAS IT ME ?
Have a feeling this role came easily to Joan.
At 5314, the wedding dinner scene. The necklace that Jones is wearing is the same necklace she wore to the 1963 Oscars the night she accept the award for Anne Bancroft, who won over Bette Davis.
What a great piece of trivia!!!
1:00:00 pure gold
Mommie Dearest & Pamela Voorhees in one Movie Together
Geeeezzz the ads!
Wow, Joan played that malignant narcissist very well! I knew when her husband looked at the gun case, what he was going to do. A little too unrealistic at 1 hour and 18 seconds, though
❤
The drag queens drag queen 👑😂
The best part of this film occurred at 1:34:22
Joan did well for a woman at the time. Knowing about her life I can understand why she is great. She is not acting some of the parts.
Practicing up for a round with Christina @52:41
🤣🤣😂
The bracelet he gave her is gawdy.
Also.. Betsy Palmer...Jasons mom.!
I read that Joan Crawfords daughter Christina left the theater during the screening of this film. Joan's portrayal of Evie was so reminiscent of her actual personality when she was drinking - that it gave Christina cold chills .
Christina is a liar.
I love old movies but this one was not so good😂😂🤣
The plot was slow at the beginning of the film but moved too fast as the end of the film approached.
I could not get past the boasting about having 1,000 slaves...as a joke. -yeah, you can keep the "good ole days".
The first 3 minutes the no one replied to the colored help. ☹️
Great ending! The witch is dead
😮 you gave it away 👎🏽
Too many advertisements. Movie was annoying to watch because of the interruptions
Omg Betsy Palmer. Jason voorhees mother 😮
What a sick bunch!!🤢
Too many commercials
Is the blonde woman Jason’s mother from Friday the 13th?
She plays this role to the Hilt. So deceptive and manipulating. Her control over others is what she lives for.
Christina Crawford said this was a hard film for her to watch because the character Joan played was very similar to how she was irl.
Did she say it in an interview or a book?
I love this movie but feel the constant very soft focus photography of Joan Crawford
Is very irritating and odd .
