RIP Shelley Duvall

 

Shelley Duvall has passed away from complications brought on by diabetes. For me, it's kind of a Goodbye 20th Century moment, in the sense that the Shining is a quintessential 20th Century film. Her performance within the Shining was shamanic at best and completely insane at its most harrowing, if that makes any sense at all. Additionally, she broke the mold for established female beauty within Hollywood, and that makes her a kick ass person. As she aged, she let herself age. Again, kick ass. Farewell Shelley Duvall, you were a beautiful woman.
