"Yes, Mommie Dearest," i say.

it pisses her off every time.

What would I do? If I was young & living with that psycho, probably not too much, as I'd be scared to try anything. If I was older, I'd run away.

"Tina! Bring me the axe!"

My sister & I have seen this movie 23047230823098 times, & whenever it's on cable we call each other to spread the news.

"What are wire hangers doing in this closet when I told you, NO WIRE HANGERS EVER?!?!"

Many moons ago (middle-school age for me), my sister & I acted out a few scenes from the movie. She tied a scarf on my head (similar to Faye Dunaway's headband thingy she had on) & cold cream to my face, & I chased after her with a wire hanger. My mother just shook her head & asked why was she blessed with such weird children.

"Hello Daddy. I'm Christina."

If what Christina Crawford wrote in her book was true (& I'm not calling her a liar; or, on the other hand, sticking up for her mother), then it's a horrible thing for anyone to go through. Child abuse is a nasty business, & I can only wish that it never existed.

"I love you, Mommie Dearest."

i read the book and not to defend a child abuser or anything but miss christina was a wretched brat and perhaps they almost desrved one another. she does a lot of pissing and moaning about stuff she wasn't given and how cheap her mother was, whine whine, she sent me away to school waaaaah! i think a lot of what she wrote was BS (in capitals) because she was disowned in the will

[rmr]

My favorite scene in the movie is when she meets with the pepsi boys and blurts out in the middle of the board meeting.....

"DON'T FVCK WITH ME FELLAS"

I watched the movie when I was very small and to this day I do not have, own or will even allow wire hangers in my house. NO WAY!!!
