Joan Crawford photographed by George Hurrell, 1931
 

I’m reading Mildred Pierce at the moment and, as it’s a little different from the movie and it’s set in the 30s, I’m very much picturing 1931 Joan as 1931 Mildred. It’s cute and her working girl done good roles of that period are perfect for her.
