Joan Crawford is a Hollywood legend. She star of bright and somber melodramas. She reigned on the screens for several decades, but every kingdom has her sunset. At that twilight moment, and as if trying to escape that crossroads, Joan decides to call the notable American artist, the greatest exponent of Pop Art: Andy Warhol. Her intention is to replace her muse, Elizabeth Taylor, in the serigraphs that the artist will present at the Ferus Gallery in Los Angeles. This intrusion will give rise to a telephone conversation where the queen of melodrama will confirm that the world has changed and that her cinematographic life in black and white is already part of an implacable past.

Long before Kim Gordon was a cooler-than-thou multimedia artist in Body/Head, she was a cooler-than-thou multimedia artist in Sonic Youth. In the ’80s, Gordon and her bandmates were fixtures of New York’s downtown art and music scene; one regular haunt of theirs was legendary nightclub Danceteria, which served as the setting for a short film Gordon made sometime around 1985. Now, as Dangerous Minds points out, said video has surfaced online thanks to filmmaker/designer Chris Habib (a.k.a. Visitor Design). “Excellent video I found in my Sonic Youth archive,” Habib writes on the clip’s Vimeo page. “I digitized it for Kim during her [early 2000s] CLUB IN THE SHADOWS exhibition at Kenny Schachter’s old space in the West Village.”

0.0The private Joan Crawford fought as hard to create a normal family life as she did to establish her career. She forged her own path and to that end became a single parent, eventually adopting and raising four children. Like many parents, she picked up a 16mm camera and began filming both the special and the ordinary events of her family’s life. These home movies (ca. 1940–42) present that which one rarely gets to see: a larger-than-life personality at home, unadorned, just being herself—and often in color, at a time when her feature films were black and white. Crawford filmed most of the home movies herself; when she is on camera, it is unclear who is behind it.
