Film '72
Film 79 Episode 13
Monday 8 October 1979 on BBC-1

Featuring an interview with Walter Matthau.

Shirley fell and broke her arm the week before her 80th birthday and was unable to attend any of the celebrations that were planned in her honor. (edit) It's been reported that whenever Shirley's mother Gertrude wanted her to get focused on what she was doing, she would simply say "Shirley, sparkle!" and her daughter would go out and perform beautifully. (edit) The only times that her children watched her movies (when they were young) was on their birthdays. She said that as each one got older though, they would ask her if they could go rollerskating instead of watching her films. (edit) Got a lead role in Little Miss Marker even though she was originally turned down. (edit) Her mother turned one of her curls into a "spit curl" when filming Stand Up and Cheer to hide a cut/bump on her forehead. (edit)

Shirley Temple Black: I still get precious letters from children. Many of them think that I'm still a little girl! (edit)
