Joan Crawford has worked hard all her life. However she has not left a single cent for Christina or Christopher, quoted "for the reasons well-known to them". My first reaction is to doubt whether her net worth is negative, given her pursuit of certain glamourous kind of lifestyle. Well jokes aside, I do believe people are born with different worldviews. Allowing me to be a little bit judgemental, Joan is more like a man than a woman. She values respect, reputation and career-related achievements more than love or family. Nowadays it is common to see a woman like that. But back in the 30s, she was definitely rare. Cliché has it that one must have loved reallly hard before she could hate somebody so bad. Joan was definitely toughtest on Christina, not sure if Christina is the naughtiest one though. Joan must have loved Christina so much before she hated her so without leaving any inheritance to her. The funny thing is that Christina seems to be the one most alike her with a similiar multi-marriage history. Maybe it is due to Christina's rebellious character, or her chosen path as an actress, or even her presence to prove that Joan's failed as a mother. It is human nature that the things one cannot obtain are what he/she wants most, especially for people like Joan. She is widely loved and has earned an extraordinary life. The one thing she cannot have is Christina's love. She cannot handle the fact that she was so emotionally instable when dealing with young Tina that it has caused permenant damages to their relationship. There is an inerasable scare in the heart of both Joan and Christina. This is one thing Joan has failed in this life, which she can never really admit. By leaving nothing in heritance for Christina and Christopher, Joan has ruined her last chance to repair their relationship, which led Christina to tell her side of story and made this movie possible. Maybe Tina and Christopher will forgive their mother one day. But by putting a higher price sticker on fame than other stuff in life, one would always end up in vain and never have made it as a qualified mother. Eighty years ago when Joan decided to be a mother, she thought she wanted to be loved as mommie dearest. She thought that she needed family love for her life to be complete. But in fact, she never did. Deep down in her heart, she just wanted to be admired and obeyed. Society may tell you so and so. But sadly, no one can change what his or her own heart truly desires. 為什么大家都在罵這片子，金酸莓獎(jiǎng)還拿了好幾個(gè)，我看完怎么如此震撼！
