One does not learn to be so hateful at an early age in a vacuum. <br /><br />I have a blacksheep brother who is #4 of 6. We all just avoid him because he is hard to be around. It makes me wonder what kind of relationships the two ladies had outside of the sisterhood.Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09895379382598203558noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19466193.post-84632664975596243652020-08-01T22:18:17.656-04:002020-08-01T22:18:17.656-04:00@Michael

I also got the feeling that Joan didn't really care about acting, but wanted to do it to kinda irk her sister.<br />And it is a shame they, apparently, never made up. That was SOME feud!Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15302478126147924237noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19466193.post-69330801312188180702020-08-01T14:49:15.388-04:002020-08-01T14:49:15.388-04:00Well you know I loved and adored Dame de Havilland...Well you know I loved and adored Dame de Havilland. I've seen Joan in a few movies but I don't know the roles were as memorable. I also think Joan had to work twice as hard as Olivia for anything. It was always a "keeping up with the jones" with her, where she should have honed herself more into her own person, when she wanted to be more like Olivia...but pretty clear their talents were night and day. More than not, most thought Joan was just coming across a bitch. A shame they couldn't make up though.Mistress Maddiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02098940220513091207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19466193.post-79888330006910627452020-08-01T14:47:27.156-04:002020-08-01T14:47:27.156-04:00@Debra

Trouble is, as I learned later, child no. 5 (I think) had a brain tumour and was slowly paralysed, so when all the attention should have been on my sister as the baby, it wasn't - it was on my sick sister. She eventually died and I was born - thus stealing no. 6's thunder apparently. I never realized any of this until much later but now many years later I/we (as a family) have nothing to do with her. I'm not sure how much is sociopath (she was a real entitled bitch all her life) and how much was just circumstances. Who knows. Too late now though isn't it!Treadershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08613671137557939083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19466193.post-71360870526461312032020-08-01T10:18:20.487-04:002020-08-01T10:18:20.487-04:00my goodness!!
