Joan Crawford was undoubtedly one of the most popular actresses in the 60s. She appeared on”The Merv Griffin Show” after her performance in the psychological thriller, “Whatever Happened to Baby Jane?” Crawford received a standing ovation from the fans in the audience.

Interestingly enough, though the award-winning actress was a fan favorite, this was far from the truth when it came to her castmates. A truth that was revealed in the tell-all book, “Mommie Dearest.”
