The Poseidon Adventure was my introduction to Shelley Winters, at the time I had no idea just how many classic films she had appeared in. You’ve got a nice eclectic mix of films for the first day of her blogathon. Until I saw Vinnie’s entry I had no idea that Shelley was in Pete’s Dragon. I haven’t seen that film since I was a wee nipper.
