Line 15:
** Shirley's mother wanted her to be able to play sassy little brats, maybe even [[Enfant Terrible|Enfants Terribles]], and Shirley wanted to play more [[Action Girl]] type roles, but the studio ([[Twentieth Century Fox]]) wouldn't allow either.
* [[The Danza]]: In four of her early films.<ref> Including ''Bright Eyes'', the first movie written specifically with her in mind.</ref>
* [[If It Tastes Bad, It Must Be Good for You]]: In ''Poor Little Rich Girl'', Temple's character Barbara is forced to eat spinach, and says something along the lines of this. Barbara even performs a song on the radio based around this.
* [[Heartwarming Orphan]]: Often (but not always) played these in her films.
* [[Innocent Fanservice Girl]]: Some contemporary critics accused the producers of her films of exploiting her as this. As British film critic Graham Greene said in his review of ''Wee Willie Winkie'': ''Her admirers—middle-aged men and clergymen—respond to her dubious coquetry, to the sight of her well-shaped and desirable little body, packed with enormous vitality, only because the safety curtain of story and dialogue drops between their intelligence and their desire.''
