For me, it's Mildred Pierce.

So far, it would be this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WLMZbKZHwlY

I was impressed and makes me want to see the movie.

She was very good in that film with Cliff Robertson in the mid-50's. And she wasn't bad in the 1945 movie with Fonda and
Dana Andrews, vying for her with a good ending.

This is probably a bit out of the box.

One is not all that crazy about her as an actress. If I had to pick a film I thought she excelled in, I'd go with.....

"Whatever Happened to Baby Jane"

Joan was terrific in that one.

I haven't seen all of her movies, only a few, but these are three of my favorites of hers so far.

What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?
Autumn Leaves
Strait-Jacket

I've also seen Sudden Fear and Berserk. Didn't care for Berserk, even though her acting was fine in it. I just didn't like the movie. Sudden Fear started out good, but then went downhill for me. There's more I have to see.

As Blanche in Whatever Happened to Baby Jane? She was fantastic!
