I wrote that it was my impression. Buy the series if you want, defend the whole era in which they appeared, but you still won’t change my impression.
Post #14 "Shirley Temple experienced it. Its been going on forever."
Dontcha feel all warm and fuzzy now about the Shirley Temple movies. If Shirley Temple "experienced it," well, it was worth it wasn't it? Hell, buy dozens of the TV offer and send them to all your friends. Tell them how much you enjoy the movies, even if she was abused. It's only entertainment anyway, it doesn't matter if she was abused.
