This role is already one of the most praised...

Honestly, I think she should have been nominated for Best Supporting Actress. I find her terrified reactions to be even more chilling than Jack Nicholson's menacing performance.

​@@harleyzethAre you high?!? Shelley Duval has never won an Oscar in her life, let alone for this role. You really need to check Google before you show people how uninformed you truly are.

Bud Jack Nicholson is a pos. Great actor, completely awful as most from Hollywood are.

Absolutely agree! I & many others still don't even get the point... Stephen King himself has said many times her character was *meant* to be STRONG! He wrote her as a strong independent woman! Why the hell Kubrick changed her into a *completely* submissive flower petal is beyond me and King. 🤦

@@Simone-Bucn Probably because he was a misogynist pig.

​@Simone-Bucn yes, the changes made by Kubrick just seem misogynistic kind of

In the last phrase of that part she justify Kubrick ... These part don't like me.

As she should be. Im glad she spoke up about her abhorrent treatment

She (is)was brave and I loved her in that movie.

It was interesting to see her express exactly how she felt about him. The cynical look on his face appeared like he got off on giving her hell (being that he could see that his behavior was negatively affecting her). Or he went overboard with his shenanighans so that she could be the nervous wreck that he needed the character to portray in that role.

Ah yes... The Golden Bear!

You know it’s bad when other co actors even start to pick up on it 😬😬😬 poor Shelly, he’s so evil. at least her work turn out really good but it ruined her for life 😞☹️

Not really.

He should've stepped in

He wouldn’t have been able to get away with his behaviour with Jack

Lmao no

But knowing what we know now, it wasn't worth it.

clearly thats because she has a soul, unlike many in hollyweird

why does she look like coraline, if it was a liveaction

PEOPLE DON`T HAVE ANY INSTINCTS why would you even say that in this context? please

She is a bad actress, sorry

​@@asdfg9659if you don't think people have instincts you don't understand anything.

Pay attention. She wasn’t acting. Her director was terrorising her.

I hope she got a % every time it plays. She was perfect for the part, but unfortunately not temperamentally suited, hence the "push" from Stanley, that's why she was CHOSEN... fragile but w/unknown, hidden mt.of strength. Funny he saw it, she didn't.

@@jakestroll6518she absolutely was acting and was being worked harder for the part to get the actual results the director was wanting from her.

It always amazes me that we don't all shout from the rooftops that SHE WAS THE STAR of the film.

He did a great job Directing her

i stayed all night in the lodge many times. i was a chef there. a manager. for 12 years. i filmed many videos of me snowboarding outside the lodge. and also videos of me eating there with bobo from finding bigfoot. i did 1000 videos in the forest around the lodge. mushroom hunting. fishing. hiking. mt biking. bmx. etc. i even rode down to the lodge in a ninja outfit while snowboarding and doing weapons. i did a bigfoot snowboarding video outside the lodge. what good memories. i even did a zombie snowboard video outside the lodge called fear the walking shred. i left 3 years ago

She was. 🥰

I absolutely agree! She was great! Very natural beauty!!

That’s because she was literally living a real life nightmare to mimic in the movie😢 I loved her as Olive in the movie Popeye though. Hopefully she was treated with more dignity with robin Williams on cast…

I thought she was totally WRONG for that role. She didn't do it justice AT ALL.

You mean super annoying?

I mean, is the bare minimum

He also did absolutely nothing to help her AND if you check other quotes by him on this matter, he minimized the complaints of abuse she made and defended Kubrick.

I was also going to say he did nothing to help her! He got the accolades and she got suffering!

Why didn’t Jack stick up for her?

I didn’t think she was generally regarded as attractive. She’s not physically attractive at all imo.

@@spwan10did they say that?

She wasn't acting she was truly terrified and traumatized

​@@stephanie53127... Jack was truly frightening in that scene and he was so in the part. There's a clip on YT of him preparing for that scene swinging his axe and he truly turns into a madman. He was also a firefighter at some point and KNEW how to swing an axe. The first door shattered like matchsticks so they had to get a re-enforced (not a set) door. Kubrik got the best out of everyone in that film. Harsh, but the results speak for themselves.

@@stephanie53127 Saying she wasn’t acting just erases her talent and work as an actor tbh. Like yeah there were parts in filming when she was genuinely frightened but there are parts where she pretended to be afraid. You can’t just talk about her like a traumatized child…

Especially considering they shot that 60 scene times.

She’s stunning

@@andreagardndr her voice is so ethereal and unique. I love it so much. I wonder what you would call this accent? it's gorgeous. her cadence is just gorgeous

he treated her badly and it wasnt necessary-a truly great director doesnt abuse the actors to make their film

"suffer for your art"

Any Job.

Agreed. Unless a person chooses to subject themselves to something like that it’s totally unethical and the ends don’t justify the means

I tend to agree. Suffering for your art only applies when it is your own personal vision

The basis of fame is evil, destructive, smoke and mirrors; it’s the nature of the business.

Was

Seems pampered, delusional, and weak. You can tell by the way she talks that she's from a wealthy family, so hearing her pretend to feel so victimized and overworked acting in a movie begets resentment.

If you’ve not yet seen it, Shelly was in a film called “3 Women” in ‘77 with Sissy Spacek directed by Robert Altman. Shelly is just as beautiful in it, and her performance is heartbreaking.

No it didn't. Lol. She did Faerie Tale Theatre after this. Hollywood gave her a career. She chose it.

​@@tenebrae23It's not great, but Schneider fared worse.

Hollywood seems to destroy many in a variety of ways. ex. Think Harvey Weinstein

She is not destroyed... I 💘 her. Prayers

Oh please. She has a fortune of 5 million. I'd like to be so "destroyed". She went on to do 19 movies, some other roles. The problem with Shelly is more than one thing but she is mentally ill. And was before and after Kubrick. What a whiner.

People always say this but she just developed mental illness. The schizo kind. A movie didn’t do that to her, no matter how cruel the director was.

@WiggyWamWam Shelly said herself years ago in an interview that she was never the same after making that movie. It's not just an opinion when the woman said it herself.

It was her choice for fame

@beecloete7766 uh I seriously doubt she went into making that movie with the prospect of being bullied, and half scared to death... Yeah sure, ok...

​@@WiggyWamWam Getting yelled at and tormented and argued with until your life or death hyperventilating is 'authentic enough' for the camera causes schizophrenia now?

She was actually involved with 20 other movies after The Shining, some as an actress and some as a producer. The role right after was as Olive in Popeye with Robin Williams.

She was amazing as Olive Oile in Popeye with Robin Williams

she was great in "Three Women"

Did we watch the same movie!?!!! She was terrible!

Shes done several movies... she played olive oil in the robin williams popeye movie and she was in a casper movie in the 90s and a bunch of other films

very impactful

And too many people (the ones that have never really suffered pain) expect victims (mostly women) not to be able to hold or express any negative emotion, specialy toward their abuser.

I thought the role was over acted, but that's how most stuff pre 90s seems.

People hated her in that role, I liked her. I agree with the comment before mine about it being over acted, but I didn’t mind it. It worked.

It didn't. Its been overblown and she has even said nearly the same thing

​@@ThatHungryAfricanChild Imagine being abused by your director for a year because he wants the character to be more real. Stanley Kubrik was an amazing film maker but not the best person

@@ThatHungryAfricanChildwhat the fuck is wrong with you?

That's because a lot of her trauma was actually *real* .

Yes because the director traumatised her so her reactions would be more real. He exauted her for days just before they filmed the scene with the axe. I thing he slaped her on the face so she could crie, too

​@@lablab657she was paid to do it... it's not like she was a prisoner..

I'm noticing this too. They costume and makeup department did such a good job of making her look like a stressed out housewife whose falling apart I think we all just kind of assumed Shelley Duvall was a mess. Her hair is so oily in that movie.

Was it though? For all we know she could have pulled it off without the abuse. I feel as though that's one of the differenced between men and women. It's pretty normal for men to beat down and bully other men to get them to be strong and perform at their best. It can even be a sign of respect. But treating this fair, gentle and fragile looking woman in that manner... It just doesn't seem right to me at all.

Needed a fucking lesson in humanity more like it, I doubt the man even had a soul

Wrong. EVERYBODY KNEW what they were signing on for when they agreed to be in a Kubrick Film. Even Nicholson knew. These Actors WANTED the challenge because Kubrick was the greatest Director of the 20th century. Being in a Kubrick Film was a RARE honor that not everybody got, even more so now that he's gone. They were all warned about how difficult it would be, and they chose to go ahead and do the job anyway. You can't blame Kubrick for his personal style of directing. MILLIONS of dollars were on the line and he took it deadly serious.

@@skelter1153 "You can't blame Kubrick for his personal style of directing." Yes I can, he was an abusive piece of shit.

@@skelter1153we can blame him for whatever we want actually, just cause you sign up for something hard doesn’t mean a person has permission to ruin your health

​​@@skelter1153ah yes "personal style of directing" justifies abuse... Jack Nicholson and a lot of people have said that he went above and beyond the line with her, no one else was treated to such an extreme, so I'm pretty sure she did not infact know that she signed up for that mate... you can be a fan of the guy and praise his art, hell we all fucking do it's not like he is underground or something! but you also gotta admit that Kubrick had a lot of issues and was a prick to put it lightly. Would his work had been the same if he had been any different? That is something we will never know, probably not! But just like when method actors get way too consumed by their characters the line gets drawn when you make others miserable and fuck with their lives. If not, every so called genius that pops up gets to think they can do whatever they want with others as long as the end result gets them praised, and we have enough of those people already in places far more dangerous than the film industry. Nothing you mentioned gives an argument to justify the original comment being wrong as you said.

I agree.

Ask her if it was worth it

art is important

​@@etalex7074 not important enough to mentally abuse some and cause health problems that have lasted ever since

@@dramaticcheese_ The whole “Kubrick caused health problems for the rest of her life” is a complete myth that infantilizes Shelley. She had a very fruitful career after The Shining.

At what cause tho.. Look at what it did to her after

@@dash7661She is not responsible for someone verbally abusing her.

He made her do hundreds of takes for each scene, and yelled at her constantly. No actor or actress signs up to that when they accept a role. Kubrick bullied her for the entirety of filming.

Agreed. She's very gothic in the role.

@@firenze5555 What made her gothic?

An insult that she was nominated for a razzie award. Her performance was so raw and realistic and they couldn’t see that

@@reeznevhater She had the most demanding role in the film.

​@@firenze5555tf how was she gothic?

Did she have a choice...was she paid well.?

I would say no..she knew she was working with one of the greats. She suffered for the role of a lifetime.

She did outlive Kubrick so that's a win

She did an amazing job becuse Kubrick pushed her.

The unfortunate truth: She did an amazing job BECAUSE he treated her like crap

She’s still acting and is producing also, she did fine from it..

I blame the director for doing that to her. He put her in such a fragile state of mind. That she had a hard time climbing out of the fear and anxiety he put her through. I hate that he is so obviously talented but it’s a shame no one stood up to him and told him to give poor Shelly a break from being so cruel to her.

She recently worked on a film set. I don't remember if she was just helping out with it or actually in it. Grimmlifecollective did a video about it. And interview Shelley Duvall.

You can't even bad for someone that didn't enjoy their opportunity that millions wish they had.

@@StealthBard that was the most recent video I had seen of her. I’m glad she’s getting back to it and working on new projects.

well he abused her and it wasnt necessary and I question how good a director is who needs to abuse the actors

I think she is the standout actor in that film, Jack is great but she really carried that movie. Some theories are about that the movie actually depicts Wendy's mental breakdown and that what we see is all in her head. Its an interesting idea and I don't completely buy it or dismiss it, but it would help explain why he treated her the way he did and why Stephen King hated his adaptation of the book.

​@@72twistmy theory is that the lead male role is just an abusive alcoholic the whole time. There isnt one scene where he isnt a total prick

GO DO SOME RESEARCH

Unfortunately, it was a much different time. Children and women were openly abused and no one did anything. My uncle got caught with a tiny bag of marijuana in 1977 in his locker at school, and my grandfather literally found him at a burger-king after school that day and beat him repeatedly with closed fists and almost hospitalized him. It was infront of EVERYONE in the parking lot for 10-15 minutes. Employees, my uncles friends, cars on the street. A police officer showed up and my grandfather explained to the officer why he was beating his son, and the officer literally said, "Sir, you can't do that here. You have to do it at home."

The union should have showed up at his house with Scabby the rat and Sabo the Cat.

Dude stfu. Loser giving lecture about things he has never done lmao. How many movies have you directed? I'll tell you don't answer: ZERO.

Of course abuse is bad, but I don't think this could be categorized as such and let's not pretend she couldn't have walked away at any moment if she wanted to. No one had a gun to her head or forced her to do anything that she wasn't willing to do. I've seen all the behind-the-scenes clips from the movie and I never saw anything from Kubrick that suggests abusive behavior. Sure, 100+ takes of one scene is rough, but being a perfectionist director who holds high standards from actors doesn't equate with abuse. That's just a tough boss. Directors routinely purposefully fluster actors before a dramatic scene because it often DOES fish out a better performance from them.
