Outrageous and controversial, this is the story of legendary movie star Joan Crawford [Faye Dunaway] as she struggles for her career and battles the inner demons of her private life. This torment was manifested in her relationships with her adopted children, Christina [Diana Scarwid] and Christopher [Xander Berkeley]. The public Crawford was a strong-willed, glamorous object of admiration, but Mommie Dearest reveals the private Crawford, the woman desperate to be a mother, adopting her children when she was single and trying to survive in a devastating industry that swallows careers thoughtlessly. The rage, the debilitating strain, and the terrifying descent into alcoholism and child abuse are graphically - and unforgettably - depicted in this film, based upon Christina Crawford’s best-selling book.
