The scene with the play back where joan slowly realised that her husband was planning to kill her is a masterclass in screen acting.....no dialogue pure cinema and she conveys everything on her face and in her eyes amazing
Mrs. Joan Crawford, one of the greatest actresses of her era. Mrs. Betty Davis also.❤❤ They are so missed. There will never be any one to compete with Mrs. Crawford and Mrs. Davis.
I don’t understand why Joan didn’t win an Oscar for this role, Jack Palance too….they were beyond amazing! The scene in the closet sweating with those frightened eyes was perfection. I love Gloria Grahame too.
@j1947m they had their foibles.. done we all.. they are human beings handling life the best they could.. lots of stress and pressure hav you read abt jayne mansfield or bob crane.. hah. so many more too.. acting is acting.. what a profession..
I saw this movie first on TV when I lived in Canada in the sixties and it freaked me out. I enjoyed seeing it again after all these years. The last time I saw Jack Palance was in "Out of Rosenheim" the German version of "Bagdad Cafe", and he still looked great.
@@cherylvirden3073 Jack Palance was in many westerns in the 1960s & 70s, movies & tv... with a face like that, almost always the bad guy. This performance was a Jekyll & Hyde character, which he also played.
Wow.. excellent movie. And the irony of it all was that he was supremely excellent in the role of romantic lead for which she originally judged him unsuitable. He delivered his lines(her creation) so convincingly that he didnt even seem to be acting...but he was
It was my favorite movie as well, for one reason...Ann Blyth as Veda. She should have won a best supporting Oscar. I think Joan's range in this movie was far greater than in Mildred Pierce's. Mildred Pierce is typical of Joan's shop girl who makes good vehicle & then it picks up later for Joan but without Ann Blyth...
Ms. Crawford was on point in Mildred Pierce. She became Mildred Pierce. When an actress or actor morphs into their character, that’s when they earn the title and recognition of their profession!
Never liked Joan Crawford very much but I must admit that she was one heck of an actress. All one needs to do is watch her in "Whatever Happened to Baby Jane". She and Betty Davis were remarkable in that movie together! This too is a really good movie. Drama and suspense until the climactic ending. Bravo!!
@@SKratch-jx4mb Yes, she was such a mean terrible woman, off stage. She was so jealous of her daughter she adopted, then she beats her. So very sad, I remember her daughter talking about the terrible things that were done to her. Not her adopted son though, as far as I know. She only wanted to be in the spotlight. Evil, very hard movie to watch, because you knew it was true.
A good strong thriller, very nice👍. Everyone, everyone, still young actors, the fashion of the days, the cars are very interesting to me. Joan Crawford with the natural startled eyes fits her role perfectly and then, Jack Palance are perfect as the lover and villain, the rest are very good too. I Ve enjoyed watching till the end. Thank you❤
Joan Crawford's training in silent films really paid off in Sudden Fear. The long scenes without dialogue where she only acts with her eyes and facial expressions is *chefs kiss* Crawford might not have been as good of actor as Bette Davis or Katharine Hepburn, but she was exceptional in her own right.
Gorgeous movie score. People forget that this movie was a suspense classic and movie lines went around the block. Joan got a piece of the profits and it kept her in money for a long time.
Oh, please. She was particularly stunning during her time doing Hush Hush Sweet Charlotte in 1964. But why even point out such a thing. God forbid any woman ages.
Where are the Jack Palance’s of the world? My goodness he’s a strong presence and of course Joan is an absolute beast!! They both should have won big time for this film, the film itself should have won, the crews, etc. This picture, and the role In which Joan was casted as the shop girl in the movie The Women , opposite Norma Shearer who plays the Devoted wife. There is not one man actually present in that film, you NEVER physically see or hear a mans voice. And if you love this, check out “A Letter To Three Wives” with Kirk Douglas. Also see “Sleep, My Love” with Bob Cummings and Don Ameche and Claudette Colbert. The fashion then was absolutely stunning. Glittery gowns, and sheer draped in embroidery……… they had more class than any three Jazz HQ on the upper end. Xo
Just going to watch this perfect movie. Thank you for posting this for us. Love Mary from Ireland. Keep the faith. Scared heart of Jesus 🙏👍🏴☘️🏴🏴🏴. Keep our children 👧 safe. So very heartbreaking for Southport 🥵
She became a seasoned talent but when she reached 50 + the stupid industry didn't give these great actresses a break with good scripts. Joan had a very expressive face and the stupid tabloids of the day wth Hedda Hopper and Luana Parsons who pitted both Bette Davis and her against each other. Great script and Jack Palance was an instant talent with those exotic looks! This is what I googled about these two vipers: Parsons and Hopper were both self-made women, single moms from middle America who shattered the glass ceiling; they were also small-minded, self-obsessed bigots who used their power to persecute outsiders, police sexuality, and ensure that the rich, powerful people who made movies lived in fear. May 3, 2021. Thanks for sharing!
Sexuality was never policed enough. A God-given power such as that, should never be in the hands of Hollywood puppeteers. This boundary breaking alone, could account for more human misery, and dissolution of family, and bonds, than all the commie propaganda ever spewed!
Autumn Leaves is good , Mildred Peirce amazing and then there is What Ever Happened To Baby Jane - Another i liked was Johnny Guitar but its had to find
I have watched this movie several times and it never fails to impress me with its excellent cast of actors. So well played.

As Palance said in the movie on the train,"Every person is one of a kind."
Yay, Myra Hudson! Thank you New Media Company. RIP Joan Crawford.🌹❤
What a great movie. Joan should have won the Oscar for this performance. Jack Palance and Gloria Graeme are wonderful villains
palance! l thought it was charton heston at first.. then l couldnt place him..
thanks.
Great movie!
Great film, great plot, great acting ❤
oh the legance-running in heels,hair always perfect,classy clothes,and jewellery
such a wonderful movie. Thank you for sharing it.
The tension was overwhelming. What perfect casting - Palance!

Fantastic movie. Joan should have won an Oscar for her performance in this. She's magnificent.❤
Too bad she wasn't such a magnificent PERSON as well.....but she still was a hell of an actress.

This performance and Mildred Pierce are Joan Crawford's best.
One of the finest movies ever. The range of expression Joan Crawford had at her conmand was phenomenal.
Pretty good movie! Great ending!❤
Excellent actors wish these days never ended people had class ❤
Great movie, and just when you think you know how it's going to end, it doesn't end that way!
yes w/all the evidence she had, why she didn't just go to the police idk..
What she SHOULD have done was made copies of the tape and sent it to the NEWSPAPERS!!!
Excellence!!!!!
Fabulous movie!!! 😊
❤❤❤❤ good classic movie.
Amazing movie! Joan Crawford had incredible talent!
What a great thriller! Brilliantly acted…
wow, I never thought id be rooting for Joan, but this was a great movie!
Today's Hollywood doesn't have this kind of talent to make this type of movie!
A satisfying ending.
This movie had me on the edge.
I saw this movie first on TV when I lived in Canada in the sixties and it freaked me out. I enjoyed seeing it again after all these years. The last time I saw Jack Palance was in "Out of Rosenheim" the German version of "Bagdad Cafe", and he still looked great.
Those great cheekbones!
Joan Crawford, one of the greatest of the cinema stars, Jack Palance a great performer. God bless them.
Bless them......cause their after-life needs some............. assistance.....?
What a Fantastic picture. Joan Crawford was at her best. Don't really know Mr. palance but he was also very good. Really Enjoyed the showing. Thanks.

Love these film noirs - the locations are fascinating as so much has changed over the decades. Nothing is the same in San Francisco.
ANOTHER GREAT MOVIE FLIM, WITH THE LATE GREAT ACTRESS, MISS JOAN CRAWFORD ❤️ 😀 💙 😊 GREAT ENDING. THANK U!!!😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮❤❤❤❤❤❤
A lesson on trusting one's first impressions.....and saving yourself alot of grief later. Yeah?
Yeah!

What an awesome thriller movie & in black n white what else there's to say??? Enjoy watching the movie 🎬 🎞 thanks somuch 😮😊😊😅
Great movie and cast!
Joan Crawford the best !! ⚘️
This film doesn't disappoint, if you read comments this is a winner😘
1st time seeing this, great movie! My fav of Joan Crawford movies is "Mildred Pierce".
It was my favorite movie as well, for one reason...Ann Blyth as Veda. She should have won a best supporting Oscar. I think Joan's range in this movie was far greater than in Mildred Pierce's. Mildred Pierce is typical of Joan's shop girl who makes good vehicle & then it picks up later for Joan but without Ann Blyth...
My favorite actress. My second favorite is Betty Davis. Those women were the definition of what the word "actress " means.
Ms. Crawford was on point in Mildred Pierce. She became Mildred Pierce. When an actress or actor morphs into their character, that’s when they earn the title and recognition of their profession!
Absolutely LOVE Mildred Pierce!❤❤❤
@@estercarr4572she was a great actress..shame they couldn’t find a better looking actor for her..he reminds me of those puppets in Thunderbirds 😅
Gloria Graham was such a great bad girl. Her and Jack sizzled!
Thrilling movie!
Wow, what a great movie!!! I wonder if Joan Crawford won any awards for this? Amazing actress!!!
She was nominated but sadly she didn’t win.😔
What an excellent movie!
This is such a great movie well worth your time. I’ve seen this over and over again.
Thank you. ❤️🇬🇧
Wow! An excellent movie!
Bruce Bennett also starred with Joan in "Mildred Pierce". He was a fine actor.
Bruce Bennett played "Steve", her attorney, in this film. He played her first husband in "Mildred Pierce".
It was good to see the young Mike Connors aka Joe Mannix have a scene 😊😊😊
Amazing movie. Didn't disappoint me at all. Thanks for posting.

Yes. A beautiful, round-headed chubster! Too well-fed and too nice a coat to be a real alley cat... instead, a cat actor!!
Superb acting
Wow--in Top Ten!!
Incredible!!!!!!!!
Fantastic oldie 😊
the excessive commercial breaks broke the mood of the film…
Jack Palance is a living sculpture! What extraordinary features! Joan Crawford is a goddess.
Isn't Joan the woman who the movie "Mommy dearest" is about?
Why I don't get it

Crawford and Bennett were also in "Mildred Pierce" together. Touch Connors is Mike Conners - Mannix.
What a suspenseful movie wow 🤩
Wow, Jean Paul Sartre could not have written a better existential film noir. The ending is amazing on so many levels.
What a fantastic movie, so glad Joan’s elegant character refused to lower herself to a killer.
AMAZINGGGG
Fantastic!

😄😄😄 Exactly! in real life this story would be over in 20 minutes! Off to the jail and I am going to my summer house! 😁😁
Joan looks so polished ❤ she was caught in his web of lies and deceit...
Gorgeous movie score. People forget that this movie was a suspense classic and movie lines went around the block. Joan got a piece of the profits and it kept her in money for a long time.
Wow great movie
Not a Joan Crawford fan but this is a good flick
Que película espectacular. Magistral actuación de todos.
First time seeing this good movie unusul casting i thought Crawford and Palance but worked for me
Thank you
BRAVA JOAN BRAVA ❤️
This, in my opinion was the last film Crawford made where her physical beauty was intact. She looked great for 48.
Oh, please. She was particularly stunning during her time doing Hush Hush Sweet Charlotte in 1964. But why even point out such a thing. God forbid any woman ages.
@@Garsons-oq4lhPoint noted and I agree wholeheartedly. However I did state that it was MY opinion.

And what did they really contribute? Very little.
Today they would be called influencers. I hate that term.
Precisely. Gossip is a poison weapon. Women of quality, ladies if you will, did not engage in such low and hostile ways toward others!
the ultimate movie star , have you other pics with her?
Plenty on here = just type in Joan crawford movies = Harriet Craig a fav of mine!
