Shelly Winters should seriously wise up. Consider:
In He ran all the way, John Garfield picks her up at the public pool then takes her family hostage. Even after he threatened to shoot her father if he didn't carve the turkey, she was ready to run off with him.
In The night of the hunter, Robert Mitchum insinuates himself with recently widowed Shelly so he can find the secret stash of the money that only the kids know, and after he kills her and goes around with the kids trying to find out the secret, thank heavens for Lillian Gish who beats Sam Elliott by many years in saying, "They will abide."
In A Place in the sun, it's Montgomery Clift taking her for a ride in a rowboat to dumpsville.
Recurring tragic codependencies. Didn't her mother ever teach her?
