Edgar Wright

Edgar Wright Instagram – RIP to the truly iconic Shelley Duvall, who burned up the screen in many funny, intense and idiosyncratic roles. I especially loved her in ‘McCabe & Mrs Miller’, ‘Thieves Like Us’, ‘Nashville’, the extraordinary ‘Three Women’, ‘Annie Hall’, ‘Time Bandits’, ‘Roxanne’, her Olive Oyl in ‘Popeye’ (best comic book casting ever?) and, of course, her fierce, unforgettable performance as Wendy Torrance in ‘The Shining’. Whatever horrors are conjured up in that film, its power stands and falls on Duvall’s terrified reactions. What an incredible screen presence she was. | Posted on 11/Jul/2024 21:18:59
