Save me! (Get me the hell out of here)

Save me! (Too young to die and my dear)

Save me! (Walk away, yeah)

A forgotten legend who shined as a star in the early 1930's. Joan Crawford was born Lucille Fay LeSueur on March 23, 190? and died of cancer on May 10, 1977). She was an American actress. She started her career as a dancer in traveling theatrical companies before debuting on Broadway and later on to Hollywood.

Crawford often played hardworking young women who find romance and financial success. These "rags-to-riches" stories were well received by Depression-era audiences and were popular with women. Crawford became one of Hollywood's most prominent movie stars and one of the highest paid women in the United States, but her films began losing money. By the end of the 1930s, she was labeled "box office poison".

In 1945 she won the the Academy Award for Best Actress in the film  Mildred Pierce.
