Denn das Heimweh nach der Großstadt wächst. Bleibt dieses Gefühl vielleicht für immer? Johanna Weinhold spricht mit dem Pretzschendorfer Bäckermeister, der nicht nur die besten Eierschecken macht, sondern auch Teil der Dorfseele ist. Und: Sie feiert Fasching mit dem Dorf.

They were not famous (well, sorta). But their marriage coincided with the last gasp of the freewheeling decadence of the ‘70s, so there were plenty of lurid details to air in public.

But when Christina Crawford's memoir of a childhood spent battling her controlling mother, Joan Crawford, was published as Mommie Dearest in 1978, the reaction was decidedly not that. From having to defend her account of her childhood to friends of her adopted mother (not to mention interviewers and fans) to the stroke that people whispered was actually a nervous breakdown precipitated by the disastrous film adaptation, this is the story how the legend of Joan Crawford almost ruined Christina's life... a second time. --- Support this...2021-08-0343 minShocking!
