Joan Crawford on why her marriage to Franchot did not last. (To be fair though, Joan is taking quite a bit of the blame, when both Franchot and she contributed to the deterioration of their marriage.)
"Franchot loved the theater and despised Hollywood, and I wasn't as nice to him, or as considerate, as I should have been. I was extremely busy during those years, and I didn't realize that his insecurities and dissatisfactions ran so deeply...[he was] mature and stimulating. I missed him a lot, for a long, long time. The breakup was another career casualty. If I'd tried a little harder--well, who knows?"
