Why was Christina crawford-joan crawford's daughter- put in a convent school at age 15?
In the book Mommie Dearest Christina told what happened. Shortly before Thanksgiving Christina called her mother to ask her about coming home. Joan was in a bad mood and blasted Christina about Christmas List and told her to have a Christmas List by the next time they talked. The list Christina compiled was not good enough for Joan so she said that all four children would not be coming home and that as punishment they also would not be continuing at the school that they had been attending. Several days after Thanksgiving Christina was picked up and taken to Flintridge.

What movie is about an abusive mother who sends her daughter to camp and force feeds her her own vomit?
Heavy stuff but the child-abuse rap was part of the plot of Mommie Dearest. I do not know if this was directly stated in the film, but Joan Crawford was NOT Christina Crawford"s natural mother- she was adopted. Now, we are back to all the mythology- and some reality of cruel stepmothers.

What was the sexual orientation of Joan Crawford?
In Christina Crawford's book Mommie Dearest, Christina wrote that she was aware of her mother Joan's 'lesbian proclivities'. There is also rumors about Joan either having an affair or being rebuffed by Marilyn Monroe. Joan had made comments to the press about Marilyn's oversexed appearance in the early 1950s which caused a controversy. The rumors may have been started after the press incident. Joan was married four times and had many affairs with men. There has been no corroborated evidence that Joan had engaged in lesbian affairs. Part of the rumor mill may have to do with the type of characters that Joan played on the screen and that over the years she had developed a gay fan base. She was also very good friends with William Haines, a former actor turned interior decorator who was openly gay. Joan was highly sexed so she could have experimented but her orientation seems to be based on facts heterosexual.
