[QUOTE="Luke_Krebbs_Ewing, post: 337894, member: 64"] What's your favourite memories of Miss Ellie. Played mostly by Barbara Bel Geddes but for one season by Hollywood superstar Donna Reed. Donna taking Jock's painting down was a memorable memory for me. However Barbara's Mastectomy episode was very powerful to me & had me crying as she came to terms with her condition. The episode where she answers the phone at the barbecue when Jock is coming home, again had me in tears. This was the episode where she was told that Jock's chopper had crashed and was presumed dead. The other episode where I couldn't stop myself crying was when she came to terms with Jock's death. Smashing the crockery in the kitchen and wailing "Why Did You Leave Me!" Barbara Bel Geddes was exceptional in the role, Donna Reed unfortunately never stood a chance. The viewers obviously identified Barbara as being the real Miss Ellie. Personally I liked her a lot. I know she wasn't Barbara but she still gave a dignified performance in the role. What are your favourite memories of the Ewing Matriarch? May both of these outstanding actors, Barbara & Donna Rest In Peace. [ATTACH type="full" alt="ellie.jpg"]40401[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full" alt="ellie3.JPG"]40402[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
