ALFRED STEELE HOW TO
Vincent Sherman (Joan): Like many of her male contemporaries in Hollywood, Crawford knew how to exploit sexual desire in order to get what she wanted. They wanted, but the source of the information wasn’t me and it wasn’tĬlark. People who said we were having an affair. Word if you won’t be shocked: Balls! Clark Gable had balls. I can tell you, and I can tell you in one I’ve been asked many times about him and what was Crawford told Chandler, who wrote both her biography and Davis’s:Ĭlark was all man. The pair worked together on eight films, fell in and out of their sexual relationship, and-above all else-fostered a true, enduring friendship based on mutual respect.
