[QUOTE="Caryscott, post: 393610, member: 57460"] Gene Nelson was a former Warners contract player. He and Jane both appeared in Starlift in 1951. He was 21 years older than Maureen. If they met on the set of Starlift Maureen would have been 10. I’m guessing Maureen’s relationship with him wasn’t particularly welcomed by her mother. Hard to imagine why. Regardless of his credibility I think there were control issues with both kids. Keeping their children too close was a mistake for both Bette Davis and Marlene Dietrich’s daughters who had a front row seats to their mother’s lives and inadequate educations they came to resent. Maureen was pretty pragmatic about it and both she and Michael seemed to have come to terms with their Mother. Donna Reed she was not but no one got strapped in to bed, choked out or went on trial for murdering their mother’s mobster boyfriend so while it could have been better (particularly for Michael who was victimized by a predator) it could have been worse.
