I never realized how much Mommie Dearest, has influenced popular cinema? I am watching it now, and it kills me just how, this film is copied into so many dramas- in order to give it camp appeal!

I think it’s odd, that people take this movie so seriously! It’s funny! BTW: What is normal. Functionalist's base their studies on an idealist culture...which BTW doesn’t exist. The whole world is based on ideals, which BTW are made up. What is a boy, girl, man, woman? What is normal? Be genuine people. Labels are labels.

Scott Douglas -in the movie, Our Mother's Murder- is totally based upon Joan's persona from Mommie Dearest. This is just one example, of how this film has helped in the camp of many films...

I think that the real Joan lived a very victimized life. In the end, she is the hero of MD. She is medicated and possible a criminal on the run? Overall, I think she was a great actor.
