Wally. I, too, am a big fan of Shelley Winters. I have noticed that in some circles she is looked upon as some kind of buffoon. Not true though and as a matter of fact I have read or heard her say, can't remember, that the silly persona is one she created. Don't remember the reason but she is no dummy. As an actress. I rate her excellent. Her performance in "A Patch of Blue" was superb, to say the least. And how about "The Poseiden Adventure?" She was grand. Have you read her autobiography? This woman knew what she wanted and went out and took it. I admire Shelley Winters. And she wasn't always a B actress. There was a long period where she was on the Hollywood A list.
