In Daisy Kenyon (1947), Joan Crawford lives a bachelor gal's dream as a commercial artist. Her favourite model tells Daisy 'you cook like you paint, honey--fast, colourful, and glib'. Living in a man's world, Joan has adopted a hardboiled exterior from her married lover, the ruthless tycoon played by Dana Andrews. Soon she's in a three-cornered love affair, with Andrews and a widowed veteran, played by Henry Fonda. We're in proper adult territory: people cheat, lie, play games, and have emotional baggage. But Joan Crawford isn't here to save a man or make him worthy. Grown ups tend to their own ghosts. Daisy Kenyon is a prestige picture, from start to finish.
