Sad to hear of Shelley's passing today. A wonderful actress.
Shelley Duvall seemed so kind hearted. I feel so sad to see her struggles in her later years.
Is she in trouble?
@@williamr3840she’s passed now rip
@@royaltyfandomx Bloody hell! I didn't know that. She was brilliant! :0(
@@williamr3840 yeah, she passed yesterday morning due to complications of diabetes. rip
The way she rolls her eyes, you can see why she'd be cast as a cartoon character. What a face. I love her.
She was perfect as Wendy, I couldn’t imagine anyone else in that role.
Also the perfect Olive Oil
Agreed!
Stephen King didn't agree. He wrote Wendy as a pretty strong & athletic blonde woman. Kind of ex-cheerleader material.
She was stunning!
No sir.
She's so cool and charming.
RIP Shelley ❤
I always wished I would have had a chance to meet her. She seemed so kind and she was amazingly talented
She was a beautiful, sensitive soul. Such a generous performer - and as iconic as her performance is in The Shining, no one deserves to be treated like that..
Such an ethereal beauty 😍
'Time Bandits' was directed by the other Terry, Gilliam.
Nope, it's Monthy Python's Gilliam
not Terry Jones though is it?
Rest in peace, Shelley. A stunning beautiful soul.
I enjoyed this. A very good actor.

RIP Shelley Duvall. 🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊
Amen
You can see the minimal makeup and yet she had the high cheek bones, dimples and those big eyes. She was not a model from the magazines. But she was beautiful.
She did do some stellar modeling. You should look up some of her work. She was a great model in the 70s
3 Women is such an amazing film. It's like a strange, weird dream. Definitely one of my favourites.
It's maybe my all time favorite film. So fascinating on repeat viewings.
YES
She made some great films. Bless her. Hope she's doing ok these days.
I feel so sad at how she was treated by Hollywood, I hope she's doing well and happy in her life
Sadly, she passed away in June 2024.
A rarity, a truly unique and exceptional talent. Love Shelley Duvall.
For me in my mind she will always be an Oscar winner for her incredible performance in The Shinning.
Casting Shelley Duvall as Olive Oil does indeed prove that Altman was a genius of casting. Maybe that's why he decided to push her into acting when he first saw her, and didn't want to explain why :)
REST IN PEACE, SHELLEY DUVALL
❤ ❤
Shelley Duvall was such a sweet lady. She was funny in her own unique way and her self-effacing nature had a real charm to it. Of course just like everyone else, It really pained me to see how she ended-up during the last 20 years of her life. She had a beautiful light that never really completely extinguished until she died so recently. She was 76 years old. I hope her passing was peaceful. I will always love her for the great work she did, especially on _The Shining._
Brilliant actress
The Shining are one of my all time favorite movies! Amazing interview!
A magical actress.... ❤
Wow, she was lovely! RIP Shelley.
She’s so charming❤ sorry to hear what you had to go through with Kuebrich and the shining but that movie turned out great and so were you.
There are some very special movies which in their entirety only exist once. And often those works include some major participants which made that uniqueness. The Shining is one of those movies. I can imagine that even Jack Nicholson could had been substituted. But there could had not been any substitute for Shelley Duvall. That movie would had not been the same. Her fragile yet so caring character with a full presence and charisma could had never been equalled. And she so very much reminded me of my mother who most likely would had jumped in front of a lion if her child was in Danger. That I always felt with Shelly Duvall's portrayal of Wendy. And she fights so heartbreakingly for their Danny. The Shining is such a unique film to which there is no substitute. Let's say for instance if 48 Hours would not exist you still would have many other great Cop Movies like Beverly Hills Cop as an example. But there is no other "The Shining". Which accounts to all Movies of Stanley Kubrick I guess. I really need to see now another wonderful Walt Disney Real Actors Movie called "Popeye" which I had not seen yet. Also starring the wonderful Shelley Duvall.
Very special person.
RIP Shelly! 😢
I remember watching a documentary or reading something about Shelley Duvall and her experience with Stanley Kubrick and she cried on set and wasn't happy with Kubrick's quest for perfection. I vaguely remember Kubrick being rather curt with her and she didn't like that. Working with him she stated made her more robust and she learnt from it.
Although seeing the state of her on Dr. Phil a few years ago, she didn't seem to be physically and mentally in a good place. I'm guessing that Hollywood like most places just chews up people and spits them out and it doesn't do nothing good for them.
You can watch the making of the shining, it shows how the set was like.
@@brickforge12 Thinking back I am guessing the scene with her was maybe in 'Stanley Kubrick : A Life In Pictures' documentary.
That "Behind the Scenes" Shining film is staggering. Jack Nicholson prepping for the axe scene is electric.
@@user-ub1dz8js7s yes that documentary too but the making of the shining was shot by his daughter and shows a lot of stuff including Kubrick talking to Shelley I think they were arguing in the doc too
@@brickforge12 If she hadn't been his daughter, no way would Kubrick allow that footage to ever be shot.
"Hello. I'm Shelley Duvall." - Shelley Duvall
R.I.P.
She was so versatile, her part as Zippy in Rainbow was overwhelming in it's depth, emotion, and charisma.
Seems she really appreciated Kubrick and The Shining experience. That documentary really blows it all out of proportion.
So well-spoken and intelligent. Charming too. RIP
Sweet, warm, intelligent, articulate, just a class act! I hate Dr.Phil for exploiting her mental health struggles. Rip Shelly!❤❤❤
Shelley is doing fine. Find the recent NYT interview with her from 4/25/2024.
this comment didn't age well
Oooh too soon mate.
Delightful!
So cute rip Shelley x
"I am very pleased to have done it (The Shining) because I've learned more on that picture and strengthened myself....." contrary to all the rumours of her being "tortured" by Kubrick.
RIP. I hate when people called her "ugly", she has this very unique beauty
I had an uncle who thought the same of her but I always thought she was rather cute.
It was Terry Gilliam who directed "The Time Bandits", not Terry Jones. Not like Bazza to make an error like that, but easy enough to make.
Is it just me or does this interview feel very awkwardly cut together? It's like neither Duvall or Norman were in the same room together... "No one is as awkward as you." Cut to a shot of Barry awkwardly reacting. 😂
Probably shot with one camera, with the shots from the back and nodding dog shots filmed at the end then cut together. Pretty typical for location tv interviews at the time.
According to Sir Michael Palin's diaries, he filmed his scenes with Shelley Duvall on 24th June 1980 and Time Bandits was released on 2nd July 1981. If this episode of Film 80 was broadcast on 29th September 1980, in the middle of these two dates, perhaps Barry was given some misinformation about the director, hence the rare cockup about a film he hadn't seen yet? 🤔
What a beautiful and charming person
I don't know whether she did something to rub Kubrick up the wrong way but he did come across as being a bit of jerk in the behind the scenes footage of The Shining
2 things to consider; 1, it was one moment of a very long shoot and 2, SK had final cut on The Making of filmed by his own daughter.
Barry was class and Shelley was classier. Loved them both.
I adore Shelley Duvall ❤
She's great! :0)
Kubrick was insane!!!! Literally..
If she just said, "Yeah it was difficult," then I would think maybe it wasn't so bad. But she's afraid to even throw out a ballpark number for how many takes it was. Kubrick was pretty awful to her, and there are videos of the making of The Shining showing that.
🧡
I liked her in Roxanne👍
She was great in that movie. The perfect supporting performance.
Brilliant film all round isn't it from casting to cinematography. Steve Martin's best ever role I think♥️
@@jillyb9995 It's a real gem, yes.
I hate how Steve Martin isn't funny any more
I first saw her in the “Shining” great film, love Jack too! 💙
RIP Shelley! Really
My G_d she looks so sweet. A total angel.
I'm really shocked when I knew about her death, I truly sorry for all she got through and all Kubrick tortured her over the shooting of The Shining, however now it's different as the impact of social media, it's hard to unfake chemistry with someone on a set. So, probably Stanley Kubrick would be cancelled today. R.I.P. Shelley.
She seems so warm and nice. It would be so cool to have known her. RIP Shelly! I first saw her in the Shining since I'm a big fan of paranormal horror and she knocked it out of the ballpark in that role.
Terry Gilliam directed Time Bandits, not Terry Jones. The presenter said “Terry Jones.” Also, he said “The Time Bandits.” It’s just “Time Bandits.”
Me and a load of my punk mates would bunk into our local cinema and watch whatever was on. One night we bunked in and watched The Shining and we all thought it very average. Another time we got in and watched Amadeus and we all loved it!
Bunked in? 🤔
she sounds like a young Joni Mitchell
she reminds me of Sissy Spacek
she was so beautiful!!
No sir.
@@steveweatherly6907 Different strokes for different folks to each their own jerky
Great actor/actress. Pity she wasn't given the opportunity to do a broader range of roles before moving on to other things.
Pronunciation huuston 😍
she looks like she could be in her early 20s but she’s actually in her early 30s
Heeeeeeerrrrrrs Barry!
She looks like Jane Birkin in that photo behind him
RIP
Mia Goth genuinely looks like she could be Shelley’s daughter!
The Texas accent is there for sure.
Terry Gilliam directed Time Bandits and not Terry Jones.
She is really beautiful.
Oh dear, Barry! Massive boo-boo at 0:14!
Another interview that shows she did not have a terrible time making The Shining. It was hard work but she was glad she did it.
Stanley is unmatched
Mia Goth is the Shelly Duvall of today. Very similar lookz
1:05 Notice her mismatching eyelids?
This is why she hid them under tons of makeup,
Even going so far, as to heavily make-up her eyes to be the main 'feature',
of her overall appearance. Once noticed... hard to forget.
Although a talented actress, to me she comes across as far too sweet and vulnerable a person to be in a place like Hollywood.
She was beautiful.
No she was not. Just because she died, you have to say she's pretty?
@@steveweatherly6907 uh beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Just because I found her attactive doesn't mean you have to as well. And this has nothing to do with her death.
Kubrick tortured her. Any other job he would have been charged with a crime. She was put through horrible working conditions she still suffers from today
Ridiculous and untrue. All her interviews, contemporary and recent deny this. All reports from set, including a vast new book by Lee Unkrich refute this. You are wrong.
@@kubricksmith Thank you! Frustrating that "caring" fans perpetuate these negative narratives.
She was cute.
118 takes? Film must've been cheap back then. This day and age real 35mm movie film is about $700-$800 for a reel that only holds several minutes of footage.
Very very attractive woman
She seemed so sweet and so beautiful, the camera loved her. Sometimes we end up in working conditions that are misogynistic and disrespectful and back in 1979, shooting The Shining, , women were paid so much less than men counterparts although some might argue today that the pay equality hasn't changed much. Kubrick was a jerk if he really mistreated Ms. Duvall. Shame on him. And his last movie, Eyes Wide Shut, was garbage. Egotistical jerk.
She is gracious but Kubrick, in actuality, was very cruel to Shelley. Another Director who could be cruel to his actors was Otto Preminger. I admire some of their films but that does not excuse cruelty.
Terry Gilliam not happy
Time Bandits directed by Terry Jones? No.
Almost unrecognisable now.
Well, not many people look the same as they did 44 years ago
With the majority of people, for example Harrison Ford, you would recognise him immediately after 44 years, even though he would be obviously older, with this Ms Duval...you wouldn't.
Shelley Duval lost daughter Mia goth...
So she was abused into a performance. Wow…
20 takes itself is already a pain in the ass but above 170???
Kubrick should have been told to CUT THIS BS already.....
But then The Shining would be just like any other mediocre film.
@@GarretGrayCamera it is overrated AF...... Jack is iconic the rest is questionable.
she looks so much worser here then how she looks today
Amazing film. Imagine the fuss the likes of Rebel Wilson would make after doing a film like that these days.
