Perhaps the 1980 camp drama "Mommie Dearest" was a bad decision for the highly acclaimed Academy Award Winner Faye Dunaway. Even so, is that any reason to continuing the rain of punishment America seems to give her even now? I think not. When I think of Faye Dunaway, I think of brilliance, of fashionable timing, of professional stature, and of endless innovation. I have always enjoyed Ms. Dunaways effortless ways she creates a character out of thin air. Her deliverance of lines illuminates her wide range of approach to characters of all kinds. I can't think of how actresses will be in the next 10 to 20 years, but I know for a fact they will be more than 100% short of what Faye is, and has been. Somethiing I just have to justify as well, is that Faye never hams things up on a whim of any type. She digs deep, deep into the physic and emotion of the character she portrays, often resulting in some instances where she has been over-the-top at times. That is actually a good thing more so. She shows that she knows what she's doing, and that she will always be one of the most highly intellectual artists for all to see. I wish she would be more like she used to be, in more commercial projects. At lleast, she should join a prime time drama, that would be awsome!
