    Amazing performance by Jessica Lange...

    Jessica is amazing as Joan. Some of you want her to play Joan like Dunaway did. But we are talking about totally different styles here. The Dunaway movie wanted to show Crawford as a psychopath, abusive and all that. So Faye did that, marvellously. But this series wants to show the more gentle side of her, when everything was falling apart around her. It's a more complex portrait of Crawford and Lange is wonderful in it.

      That's not true. Dunaway's Crawford showed different sides of Joan, there were many scenes in the movie where she was vulnerable and tender with Tina.

      I wish that Susan would give me more of that "broadyness" that Bette had her vooice inflections...hell me as a black gay man I've been told that I do a better Bette Davis that Susan...LOL!!!!

      @oscarfun100 7 лет назад +3

      Me too. And I make people laugh with that impression. However this series is not a comedy, hence for my it makes sense that Susan doesn't use that voice.

    Apparently a lot of you have never watched Joan Crawford's movies from this period. Jessica does a fantastic job as Joan Crawford! She is much better as Joan than Susan Sarandon is as Bette Davis...and as far as Faye Dunaway goes....she gave one of the greatest campy performances of Joan Crawford the world has ever seen, but Jessica Lange is giving Joan a grounded honesty that hasn't been seen before. I can imagine that Joan wasn't always 100% over-the-top as played by Faye Dunaway.

    • @richardm311
      @richardm311 7 лет назад +8

      i agree 100%, i think alot of people see joan as faye dunaway portrayed her, she didnt capture her vulnerability which jessica is doing beautifully much less of a caricature,but i still loved faye in that role it was riveting

    • @iTeacupPanda
      @iTeacupPanda 7 лет назад +4

      Faye did a much more dramatic version that was her HOME life, but Jessica touches on what she was out in the open. Joan was fake and phony upfront and took her anger and bottled it up in such an unhealthy way that it affected her home life.

    • @iTeacupPanda
      @iTeacupPanda 7 лет назад +2

      +Miss Marvella You're thinking of Crawford as the actress and roles she played, not as a woman in her actual life.

      @yoboi01 7 лет назад +3

      bryan emler oh come on now, Jessica is a respected actress but Susan Sarandon is doing a brilliant job, and Jessica is doing well but she slips in and out of character alot. Joan Crawford spoke very refined and didn't sound like Reba McCantire ! so let's not get ahead of ourselves here

      @yevgeniyaleshchenko849 10 месяцев назад

      1) No need to shit on one actress to praise the other (your Sarandon's remark); 2) Dunaway played a version of Joan that might be greatly exaggerated or not even true so no sense in comparing

    • @jaymesguy239
      @jaymesguy239 6 лет назад

      After initial scepticism, I ended up loving it. Yes, they left a lot of things, stories and people out, it simply would have been impossible to include everything, but it made some very cogent points and it was done with great humor with many really funny characters to disguise exposition (like Mamacita). There were also many great quotable lines. Some of the actors were better than others and to an extent one had to take it all with a few grains of salt and just enjoy the performances and lines that WERE well-done. The best characterization of a known actress, in my opinion, was Sarah Paulson's, who totally nailed Geraldine Page and was absolutely charming, just like Geri. The only really bad one was, yes, I have to agree with the others on here, Zeta-Jones as Olivia. Peee-yooo!

  • @insidexistance
    @insidexistance 7 лет назад +1

    I was one of the people to cheer Faye's portrayal of Joan, and was disappointed she wasn't asked to reprise that role! Jessica is a MARVELOUS actress, and extremely talented, but she just does not look like Joan, even with all that makeup and hair -- or sound like her -- she sounds like Jessica. I read a comment somewhere that just made me go "WOW! great idea!" -- That Judy Davis should have played Joan, not Hedda Hopper. She WOULD look like her and her voice octave/tone is closer to Joan's; Miscast. But Susan is perfect as Bette! I will give 'em that!

  • @nathanfarias1051

    What a shame Eileen Davidson from real housewives of Beverly Hills was not cast as Joan , with makeup hair and facial control she could be Joan's twin! She could carried the acting off as well being a soap star for decades . Jessica is a great actress but can't get past the small eyes , Joan's were large and luminous a very important trademark missing

    I have to say that Jessica is in another league of acting compared to Susan. She totally embodies her characters. I actually forgot that I was watching her when she was playing Joan. Whereas I just felt like I was watching Susan Sarandon act a bit like somebody else. She didn’t fit the role for me at all.

    Faye Dunaway’s performance was a grotesque caricature. It actually ruined her career later on bc directors and studios didn't want to hire her.
    I would say Jessica had the harder role to play cuz Bette Davis was another caricature role easier to flesh out.

    • @mckenna8663
      @mckenna8663 7 лет назад +1

      Well, Lange is a Ryan Murphy favorite - I believe that that is why she was automatically cast. But Ryan miscasts and then plasters make-up on people so that they look like puppets. Lange's make-up in the how is RIDICULOUS! (nothing like Crawford) And so was Travolta's as Robert Shapiro in the OJ Simpson mini-series. Both Lange and Travolta looked terrible (nothing like the person they were portraying) and were terribly miscast.

    • @iTeacupPanda
      @iTeacupPanda 7 лет назад +3

      You can prefer it, but it wasn't accurate. Even Christina has said that Mommy Dearest didn't capture Joan right and the movie is based on the book she wrote based on her life. I think she'd know more than anyone. Faye did a great job, but it was a dramatization and only showed how she was at home and not outside of it. I think Jessica is showing the much more phony, righteous, outward persona she gave without trying to play it up.
      I don't think anyone else would be better for the role of Crawford except for perhaps Eva Green or Cate Blanchett had they been aged with make-up. Even then I still believe you'd be unhappy.
      Joan was a good actress, but Jessica is a GREAT actress. I know it's hard for you to take probably, as a fan . . . but a LARGE majority watch for Lange. Lange is the entire reason for the success of AHS and Joan has honestly been forgotten. Bette Davis on the other hand? Has been kept alive and is still massively idolized for her humor, personality, talent and fashion and is a huge icon partially living on still due to the Gay Drag community.
      The reason I bring this up isn't to down a dead woman, it's because . . . today? People only know Joan for Mommy Dearest, a movie about her that she herself wasn't in but a portrayal of her that wasn't even accurate. People quote from that movie and still a majority of people even in the gay community won't know what it's from unless it's about wire hangers. ---- Bette however? She as a character and Lange as an actress? Are the two major reasons this show is getting views.

    • @blueberrycobbler
      @blueberrycobbler 7 лет назад

      Watch interviews of Joan Crawford and you will see that Lange captures her essence. Unfortunately, Faye Dunaway's over the top performance (which is pure deliciousness) is seared into everyone's mind as being representative of Joan's personality.

    • @Mike-fp5rc
      @Mike-fp5rc 7 лет назад +1

      I disagree ... I suppose there are fleeting moments, but the voice and affectation is off (I don't recall Crawford talking in a proper British accent).

    • @iTeacupPanda
      @iTeacupPanda 7 лет назад +1

      +Michael K Well then you're wrong. As a Brit, I can tell you that accent is not English and if you knew about that era you would know during the silver screen era thespians had classes to speak in between to get that cultured sound and also to make both from either side of the pond be able to relate somewhat more to the characters. It's called a TransAtlantic accent, it was legitimately a near HAVE TO and MUST ESPECIALLY for women until after the war during the silver screen ages of Romantics.
      You can watch many movies where you hear Bette Davis use a similar accent. It just happened to MOSTLY die out in screen, but still moderately happens when people travel back and forth from the US & UK. As a Brit, I get it when I am around Americans for too long or something similar.
