Oy! I just watched Mommie Dearest recently. (It had been a while, and WOW, I had forgotten how overwhelming Ms. Dunaway was.) I was curious to hear John Waters commentary, but was surprised to find that for the most part, he defends the movie and Faye's performance. I can't quite agree with him, and yes, it will be hard to watch her in anything else without thinking of her shouting,"Tina! Fetch me the axe!"
Network is a remarkable film, though.
