Lovely Lady, August 19, 2000
This review is from: Intimate Portrait: Donna Reed [VHS] (VHS Tape)
This entry in the Intimate Portrait series is lovingly and carefully produced. The subject is, of course, the loveliest and most elegant lady ever to grace Hollywood. Miss Donna Reed brought more than charm and beauty to her many roles. She also brought intelligence, wit, and a remarkable understanding of human nature to these roles. This video examines her family life, both in her native Iowa and in California, and her children speak honestly, yet lovingly, of her as a parent. Her best friend in Iowa is a refreshingly joyous person and it is easy to see why they were such close friends. TV daughter Shelley Fabares, long one of this reviewer's favorite people, is characteristically generous and loving, a continuous tribute to her great friend and mentor. Lastly, kudos should be given to this program's director for an exceedingly professional yet compassionate look at one of America's genuine treasures.
