Shelley Duvall, ‘The Shining’ and ‘Nashville’ Star, Dies at 75
Shelley Duvall, who starred in Robert Altman's '3 Women' and Stanley Kubrick's 'The Shining,' has died. She was 75
Shelley Duvall, the big-eyed, waifish performer who won the Cannes actress award for Robert Altman ‘s “3 Women” and endured Stanley Kubrick’s brutal directing techniques to star in “ The Shining,” died Thursday in Blanco, Texas, Variety confirmed with her partner Dan Gilroy. After gaining attention in “Nashville,” Altman cast her in “Buffalo Bill and the Indians,” then gave her unusual screen presence a chance to shine in “3 Women,” for which she won the Cannes Film Festival Award for Best Actress as well as a BAFTA nomination. “Faerie Tale Theatre,” “Tall Tales & Legends,” “Nightmare Classics” and “Bedtime Stories” boasted notable directors including Tim Burton, Francis Ford Coppola and Ivan Passer and guest stars like Robin Williams, Jamie Lee Curtis, Elliot Gould, Laura Dern, Molly Ringwald and Ed Asner.
