Anecdotes
Michael Curtiz was initially less than keen at working with Joan Crawford. Curtiz was soon won over by Crawford's dedication and hard work.

Gaffes
After Mildred has left Wally in the beach house with the corpse of Monte, Wally discovers that the doors in the house are locked. He must break the glass in a French door to get out. People can unlock a door from the inside to get out of a house, so breaking the glass would have been unnecessary. However, there is no reason to assume that Wally had the keys or even knew where they were located.

Citations
Ida Corwin: [to Wally about his lustful looks in her direction] Leave something on me. I might catch cold.

Générique farfelu
The opening credits are presented with a background ocean scene that "washes" the credits on the screen.

A Truly Great Film Noir Masterpiece

Joan Crawford, one of the world's great movie stars, truly shines in "Mildred Pierce", a tense, prickly film noir full of suspense and drama!

Joan is Mildred, a hard working pie and chicken maven who becomes a successful restuaranteur. Ann Blyth is superb as her nasty daughter Veda, who stoops to every level to get what she wants. Eve Arden and Jack Carson are unstoppable as Mildred's friends. "Mildred Pierce" was directed by the famed Michael Curtiz, best known for his work in "Casablanca". But it is my opinion that his best work is "Mildred Pierce". The lighting, the costumes, the sets, and most importantly, the writing all help this gem of a film become a true classic.

Joan won an Oscar for her breathtaking performance, but the tour de force powerhouse in "Mildred Pierce" was Ann Blyth. Black hearted Veda was the lynch pin of this movie, and Blyth's portrayal made Veda seem all too real and frightening. Nominated for an Oscar, she should have won.

Don't miss this timeless nail-biter
