  Ah, Joan.....from when i first saw her in Golddiggers of 1933 i've had a soft spot for this brassy, sassy blonde with a big heart and plenty of attitude. One of the few women who could hold her own against Bogart, Cagney and other screen tough guys. Wish she had been more of a star, but probably she was a bit too much for post-Code Hollywood, and they probably thought one Bette Davis was quite enough. Joan, i'll always love ya, kid!

  Would love to see more of her work on TCM, especially the screwball comedies. Loved her in Deskset and recently caught There's Always a Woman during a tribute to Mary Astor.

• GREAT ACTRESS!

  I love to see her, especially in the GOLDDIGGER movie(S?). Any and all of her movies are great: from beginning to end (STAY AWAY JOE w/ ELVIS!). She has an infectious smile & cute, but still a beauty! I remember when I was VERY SMALL, she was a bartender on a TV Show - does anyone know the name of the show she was on? Would love to know! I watch her anytime she is on!

  Joan Blondell has become one of my favorite actresses. Watching her work span the decades has been pure enjoyment. From early gangster films to later roles in westerns and everything in between she demands attention when on screen. I love to watch her films!
