Unhappy Shelley Winters

A *GREAT* veteran of of the BIG *AND* SMALL SCREEN! (Link Courtesy The BRITISH BROADCASTING CORPORATION)

I especially liked her work in "The POSEIDON ADVENTURE" and the animated TV special "The YEAR WITHOUT A SANTA CLAUS"

She will be MISSED!

I read a biography of hers when I was rather young & became fascinated with her. She is surely missed.

Yes, she was very good!

I was checking out the older pics of her that AOL had - she was quite the hottie back in the day!

My favorite role of Shelly's was as Al in "A Place in the Sun".

Her best performance [IMHO]was as a b!tch in Patch Of Blue [which won her an Oscar],my favorite film that she was in Night Of The Huner with Robert Mitchum.

One of her obits had a hysterical story on when she was dating Marlon Brando and Burt Landcaster at the same time and she got her callendar mixed up and Burt Landcaster came to her house while she was in bed with Marlon Brando.

I'll bet one of them said "Welcome to the club".
