"Mommy Dearest" is not a comedy

Maybe it’s because I’m gay, but I enjoy it for the camp. And Faye Dunaway’s over the top performance. But I agree the story itself is extremely uncomfortable, and I did fall down the Wikipedia blackhole of the real story. Joan was a fuckin lunatic. The most important thing about the movie it gave a name to the kind of mothers we deal with, Mommy Dearest. Other than that it is an objectively bad movie. Maybe a critical re-evaluation is in order? One that takes into account how mental health and personality disorders are looked at today? Enjoy for the camp, shiver at the narciness of Joan Crawford. And to her daughter, you got the last laugh and revealed the truth about the Hollywood Icon. You go girl, knock ghost bitch down some pegs.

He told me I was "biased" against her and she wasn't seeking narcissist supply Why can’t I wear makeup around my father. If you have a narc near you, disengage in conversations. Use the grey rocking technique. Do everything in your power to appear uninteresting. You cannot win in a conversation with them. They live in their own reality and even statistics and facts wouldn't let them see any other reality than theirs. Being the first person in my family to break our generational trauma, but also REALIZING AND ACKNOWLEDGING that there is trauma Nmom cried to my friend and told them what a terrible son I am when I went to the bathroom. Now friend is on her side. Mom ruined birthday surprise friends planned for me Legal liability if you refuse to take care of elderly parent? Did anyone else sense that something was clinically "off" or "wrong" with their Nparents as far back as they can remember? Why are abusive mothers coddled so much? What was the worst “punishment” that you got from your nparents and why? How do you change inner voices? Did y’all grow up feeling like you were always spied on? so nmom called me this morning to say we need to have a serious talk. What traits have lingered for you after *years* of NC?
