Shelley with Joseph Brooks in a publicity pic
for If Ever I See You Again, 1978
Shelley starred in her first feature film in 1978. The movie was If Ever I See You Again. It was produced, directed and starred in by Joseph Brooks, the composer of the mega-hit "You Light Up My Life". The film was panned by the critics and was a box-office flop, but it had and still has its share of fans who appreciate the film. It was Shelley's first leading lady role; and she was asked by Brooks to wear her glasses throughout the filming.
