Rico,It surprised me that you gave that nice summary of Mildred Pierce, and named everyone in the film except the great Zachery Scott! Zach took being a slimey cad to an art forn in this and several other films in the Film Noir period.
I only watch Mildred Pierce these days for Zach and a fine turn by Ann Blythe as the nasty, duplicitous daughter Veda.
Although Crawford won the Oscar for her part in this, I find her very mannered and the queen of overacting...good only for the camp factor.
All the best,
Gary
