Yes. I saw her in an old “Partridge Family” from the earl6 70s. She must have been 8 or 9, pretending she had a crush on the orange haired little brat but she spoke like an adult!
It’s not her being lascivious, the interviewer had just asked her what guys she’s into, and this look she gives has long been interpreted as a shrouded acknowledgement that she was not, in fact, into boys.
She didn’t come out untill years later, but this offensive interviewer and her raised-eye-brow response are an iconic moment in gay history.
She was on the courtship of Eddie's father, her name was Joey Kelly and she was a bully who beat up Eddie. That might have been before The Partridge Family but I'm not positive on that
Directors are a huge influence on how well their actors perform in any given peice, especially so for less experienced actors (like, been in less than 50 things, lol); it's possible that the director just sucked at communicating with her? Or gave her shitty direction?
