for Single Bars, Single Women, 1984
Shelley starred in the TV movie Single Bars, Single Women in 1984. Inspired by the Dolly Parton hit song of the same name, it explored the new singles scene of the 1980s after the women's lib movement of the 1970s. Gender roles were changing, women were becoming more confident in going out on their own and looking for love and companionship. The film was deemed "darned good" and was viewed as a touching, heartwarming, funny and, at times, devastating slice of women's single life during the era. Paul Michael Glaser, Tony Danza, Christine Lahti and Mare Winningham co-starred. The film is available on VHS format.
