The book is fabulous and very entertaining. Mildred is described as short and brown haired and I eventually stopped picturing Joan Crawford. However I couldn't picture Vida as anyone other than Ann Blyth.
I'm not sure who I would cast in the remake. Let me give it some thought.
Pirate, Miss J is pretty sure you have to buy the collected stories of James M. Cain to get MP. SO worth it because Postman Always Rings Twice is is WILD!
Love this skit ever so !
ReplyDeleteYou know the book Mildred Pierce has been on my, "to read" list for many years but I have yet to run across a copy at library sales etc.
ReplyDeleteAlso the book "Laura". I dream of a remake starring Catherine-Zeta-Jones-Douglass as Laura.
Who would you cast as Mildred these days?
Veda?
Laura?
