[QUOTE="Brian Kinney, post: 217244, member: 3219"] Problem with her wasn't the acting (no one can shade that), it was the elegance she brought along. She looked like a sane sister of Lady Jessica Farlow-Montford - and that wasn't a typical [I]Dallas[/I] casting either. Alexis Smith had a similar style. [I]The Donna Reed Show[/I] is, according to my mother, a show where a housewife is happy to clean the house in high-heels while thinking the whole day about what to cook. In Germany it was broadcast with the title [I]Mutter ist die allerbeste[/I] (The best mother of all) for a few years in the Sixties, it was never re-run and I haven't seen a single episode (my memories start with early 1970's TV). It was popular enough to win two awards as most popular TV-Series in 1964 and 1965 by Germany's largest magazine for teenagers ([URL='https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donna_Reed']*[/URL]). What I've seen of Donna Reed before [I]Dallas[/I] were both her classics, [I]It's a Wonderful Life[/I] and [I]From Here to Eternity[/I]. Trump wants women stuck in his version of the 1950's. Women in the kitchen. And Blacks or Latinos only to knock at a backdoor to bring food. [/QUOTE]
