Dr. Phil lost his license to practice psychology in 2006
My 😍 was when Shelley played Olive Oyl in Popeye!
@@HollywoodMysteries The film 3 Women is absolutely my favorite of hers. She is great in it and I have seen it numerous times.

One of my favorites. Saw it in a theater in tge 70s. Always wanted to obtain it on VHS during the 80s. Nobody ever heard of it! It was not available to rent or purchase.
The movie had three basically unknown actresses in it who all became famous in later years. The movie itself was haunting in a style similar to David Lynch's style.
Kubricks quality is undeniable, but over 100 takes ? I'd love to know which take made the cut, #37, #67 OR #88.Anything less than the last take shows it was unnecessary.
Theories abund that the shining was Kubrick dealing with the guilt of filming the "moon landing ""
And king was plenty pissed ,and Stanley gave him many jabs, some petty .as in changing the color of the VW bug wrecked on the side of the road.
AND did jack survive the icy maze ?
Somehow his robe is on the costume shop proprietor in eyes wide shut.
Her performance in the Shining was outstanding. The suffering that went on just in the filming of that movie alone would be enough to make someone disappear. Thank you for this sweet tribute to her.
It's uncomfortable that Dr. Plill is held up to be a light on mental illness, yet is so merciless and exploitative to those who suffer from it.
@@kerryhorwitz4093 Dr Phil is a fake. And also is MAGA. Enough said.
He picks juries. Thats how oprrah met him. Because he studied psychology does make him ethical. Hes not an MD and has no oath to break.
He’s a con artist plain and simple… like dr oz, Donald trump, etc. they use television to create a false image of their professions, and suddenly they have cut the line to the top
Likely not an MD nor PHD in Psychology. Dude has been suspect to me since early days of show...I do not like him, and never have.
He is disgusting.
Shelley was a friend of mine in the '70s. We were pretty girls, some actresses like Candy Clark, Huston, more who revolved around the social world of Jack Nicholson, Dennis, all the cool guys. Often we met at my home in Benedict Canyon, and the club scene like "Helanas". Overtime, winds shift we scattered and Shelley had a boyfriend during that time, a young heir in the Tobacco Trade. I guess I thought she was with him & noted she was no longer around BH, Hollywood. Then the horrible preying Doctor whoever .....who dragged her through hellacious, invasive and disturbing interviews. Now she is gone, I will wonder if there was anything to have helped her, could I have reached out but I had no idea what, how. She was a huge talent, she was a lot of fun, she was smart. We need to help each other. PS: on a personal note, seeing these photos of her in the '70s made me recall that we would trade clothes sometimes as we were both very thin, about same height and same taste in dressing. I swear the white delicate Victorian dress in one of her portraits was mine. The photographer took photos of me in that dress too. (maybe I am wrong, but we girls traded, borrowed clothes sometimes fighting over getting an item returned). 🤷🏼♀️ Life is a mysterious path. I am sorry she suffered deeply for her art, beyond tolerable, it is so sad.
thanks for sharing your memories, your friendship is so relatable and reminds me of the friendships i had during my youth - so much youthful joy & exuberance, world was our oyster, etc
dr phil is and always has been a parasite.
may shelley and her stellar brilliance live on in our hearts and memories
Wow, sounds like you've had a remarkable life.
Cool story but no way to know it's validity
@@simphunter4292Smells like truth to me...thanks for sharing the personal story about Shelley
Thank you for your loving tribute to Shelly. She was so unique, talented, upbeat and kind.
🎭Yes, thank you much for this loving tribute to Shelley...
🖤🖤🖤🙏🌹
Thank You. I remember the situation with Dr Phil. I am an Actor by Profession. I was appalled at that situation. Just Tragic. Thank you for honoring Ms Duvall. A great talent and a truly fine human being who fell on hard times. Thank You Again!
@@trudigoodman4825 Yes it was terrible. Appalling, I agree.
Yeah I'm reporting this video it's just disgusting
It's terrible what they did to this lady, Dr Phill is disgusting
Me too, it was heartbreaking and just disgusting how she was exploited in her fragile state.
@@gigi9301 Reporting this video?
Don't know what people are talking about Shelley was gorgeous. Beautiful inside and out.
You nailed it, when someone is beautiful on the inside it radiates outwards, then there are some who are stunningly beautiful on the outside, but then they open theirs mouths and they become very ugly.
"In truth, there is no such thing as 'unconventional beauty.' Either you turn heads or you don't, and Shelly turned everyone's head."
Uniquely beautiful. 100%

Shelly was a gift. Her fairy tale theatre was pure magic .
Fairytale theatre!, ❤❤❤❤❤ thank you; I couldn’t remember the name. Agree it was magical
I, too, loved Fairytale theater. 🤗💕🎭🌌🎶
@@jennyadee913 🤩🤩🤩
I loved her fairy tale theatre! Shelley always struck me as an innocent. That no matter what befell her she retained her inner child, her pure self. I always admired that in her.
100%
Shelly reminds me of my mom. Dark hair, warm soft big brown eyes and her adorable buck teeth. I admire her so much she is a reflection of my mom that I will cherish forever. Thank you for sharing.
We've learned so many horrifying truths about Hollywood. Can you imagine how bad it was in the '70s and '80s 🤢🤮? Whenever an actor falls out of the limelight, I always just figure that they are good humans who probably experienced or met so much evil in Hollywood that they decided to go away and never encounter that evil again (hopefully). Shelley seemed such a beautiful and unique soul. I'm grateful that your tribute exists. 🙏
@@dany8822 it hasn't changed
Its gotta be some story behind the louts from NY who started hollywood - the synagogue would make some reading but Ill find out from youtube I still have 100 books to finish as it is
I was thinking the same thing! So many sinister things go on behind the scenes, the public has no idea!
33:51 wow, that’s a perfect picture of Shelly ❤
As a fellow Texan and lifelong fan born in '77 , I feel so proud of her that I'm crying uncontrolably rn. You worked so hard here on earth , may the Angels Wings carry you home to the Kingdom of Salvation with LOVE
@@Christ_thaTisilent Thank you...Angel of Inspiration!!
I must see the Shining again. What a performance. Remarkable.
Crying uncontrollably? over a stranger you’ve never met? thats a parasocial relationship and its not healthy
Crying, really??
@@jackiepowell7513 @Christ_thaTisilent This person believes in angels. That's a tell.
Thank you for this lovely tribute to Shelly. She was a great actress. RIP Shelly. We love you.
What a wonderful coverage of Shelley's life. Re: Dr. Phil, that was horrible. I had to stop watching him when I could no longer stomach him using Robin as the poster woman for spousal control and abuse. Making her attend every show then wait for him to come get her and walk her out faster than she could comfortably walk... WTH. Narc hubby, no doubt at all.
@inlovewithhealth he said once which was so weird I could never walk past my wife and not greet her and walk with her. Very strange to me and bordering on controlling.
The Shining is one of my favorite movies of all time. I never saw Duvall’s character as weak though. I saw her as a person who’d never had to be strong before. But she discovers that she’s strong enough to get herself and her son out of danger. Brilliant performance by a brilliant actress!!! RIP Ms Duvall.
@@charlesdunn6694 hear hear!
@charlesdunn6694 agree totally very good actress and beautiful and unique
She wasn't playing a hero, she was playing a normal woman forced into heroic actions to save herself and her son.
She's the ultimate strong woman. Her Wendy is dealing with trauma with which she has no prior experience. In essence, she is being asked by the circumstances to rise to an occasion that is beyond her ability to comprehend. Yes, she does a lot of screaming and crying, but who wouldn't in that situation, and she still overcomes all obstacles and gets her son out of there. Stephen King is a douchebag. Great writer, but no manners.
The problem with this version of The Shining was a good flick, it just really didn’t have much to do with what SK wrote. Just saying.
A genuinely honest actor. Her heart was always laid bare for public consumption. I’m sure her experience with Kubrick was detrimental to her health for the rest of her life. She seemed to be like a frail hummingbird who let us capture her beauty then left for self preservation. A unique beauty who will never be forgotten.❤️. RIP sweet angel.😇
What a lovely sentiment you wrote. She was amazing, a very special and unique actor!
❤️🩹 Thank you so very much for giving Shelly DuVall such a compassionate and heartfelt tribute!! She was such a beautiful, sensitive and introspective women. I lived in Ft Worth, TX for more than 30 yrs and worked for this branch of the "DuVall" family fm 2000 until 2013, they were cousins on her Father's side of the family. They were all very protective of Shelley. I never met her, only heard family stories. I know that the family are very appreciative of your kind and heartfelt manner of telling her story. ❤
Thank you for your comment, they sound like a great family
Well after all we know about Hellywood I can see why she ended up in such a horrible state. Not to mention Dr. Phil! She was awesome.
Thank you for this loving and sensitive episode. She was a true original.
I've never liked Dr Phil. He's a sadistic exploiter of unfortunate people.
mentored by oprah.....rinse and repeat
Exactly.
Just like his buddy Oprah Winfrey. Two sadistic peas in a pod, feeding on others pain and misery, like pain and misery vampires..
Oprahs buddy.....
@@claudiafahey1353 YES!
Thank you for lovingly and respectfully eulogizing Shelly.
Dr. Phil uses people. Oprah unleased a horrible person who uses people.
Shelley Duvall was a very original person with a joyous attitude. And her acting...superb.
RIP ❤
@@gogo-word Oprah's a slimy maggot.
Dr Phil & Oprah are one in the same, greedy & desperate to stay relevant based on very little that's positive.
@@gogo-word Oprah herself uses people...
She is so corrupt and is a massive hypocrite.
@gogo-word Agreed re Dr. Phil-of-It, especially re Shelley. Oprah ain't such a hot ticket herself. (Her trip to Maui after the fires asking for people to donate when she has millions or billions was the final straw for me.)
@@gogo-word don’t forget that oprah winfrey is a horrible person, herself! But I agree with you.
Dr. Phil, Mr My-goal-is-to-help... help line his pockets.
Dr. Fraud.
Dr. Phil... yeah, "fill" his pockets on the suffering of others. Maybe someone should check Dr. Phil for sociopathic tendencies.
So is the fraud lady who made this video, to get views and paid by TH-cam, she is using shelly
Dr Phill will get his comeuppance in Hell.
This is an incredible human. I loved this video but thought the emphasis on dr phil was unnecessary. Also, maybe Dr Phil was trying to reach out to make sure she was okay. What is the proof he was reaching out to “further exploit her”? Just a lot of assumptions and it’s annoying to shift the focus to Dr Phil. Ugh, no thanks.
I felt so bad for her in those final years. And she went to Dr Phil for help. And he was awful to her. It really seems like these actresses get thrown away and forgotten about when they age. None of us can be young forever. These elders with nobody in their life is so sad, man.
@@jpmnky I think a lot of people are ‘discarded’ in elder years :(
As a kid, I watched Faery Tale Theatre with my papa. She was great. My papa & I loved her. She was a far better person than Mr. Phil. Thanks for all the memories, Shelly
I remember seeing Popeye in the movie theatre as a girl. I love how much care you take when discussing all these actors lives.
@@stephaniec3619 she was Perfect 🤩 in that movie. She brought one of my favorite cartoons to life with Robin Williams stellar performance in addition, no other actors could have done it. She did wonderful children’s theater also.
Hi Stephanie C can i just ask, is that a Marlon Brando figure with a raven on his shoulder in your profile picture? Just curious.
@@jameslong9921 no, it’s an Edgar Allan Poe figure with a raven on his shoulder.
Poor Shelley, my guess as to her disappearing is she probably discovered that Hollywood was a very evil place with very evil people who wanted her to sign away her soul to the Devil. God Bless her beautiful Soul, love you sweetheart ❤️ RIP
A very worthy review of this talented and unique woman, thank you. That certain tv 'doctor' does not deserve to have his name mentioned in the same breath as hers.
If she left Hollywood because medical science could not treat her mental illness, it was our loss, but she had a right to live her life in privacy. She was a honest performer and her true personality showed through in all her movies. I hope she found peace and joy in her life.
I saw Dr Phil berate a woman in such an over the top way for trying to get paid for coming on his show.Wasnt ok for her to be compensated but was ok for him to eploit her and her kids for his benefit.He also was allways selling shit with his family.Soooo greedy
I liked Shelley Duvall's quirkiness as an actress and person ever since I saw her in "Brewster McCloud" with Bud Cort. I watched that horrible "Dr. Phil" interview with her. In fact, that was the last time I ever watched his show, as I hated the way he exploited her condition and situation. I am a big fan of her "Faerie Tale Theatre" series on Showtime.
That was a beautiful tribute to miss Duvall and a well told story to her life. Thank you again for a great video. ❤
Glad you enjoyed this one!
Dr Phil doesn't even have a current license to practice. I thought Shelly was a beautiful talented artist. May she rest in peace.💜
Just had to say, her mother nicknaming her "manic mouse" was adorable... RIP.
I call my son danger mouse
@@monsterguyx YES!!! That's the best way to describe her!!!
I was upset to read how she was treated on the set of the shining. Never liked Dr. Phill. So never saw the episode. He is as trashy as Maury and Jerry Springer. I was defininatly sad to hear of her passing.
Even worse because he was pretending to be a real doctor.
At least the late Jerry Springer admitted he had the worst show on T.V......although at the end of most episodes, he did give a couple minutes of decent advice about treating people properly.
Thank you for your video honoring Shelley Duvall. She was a kind, beautiful, genuine person. Hollywood didn’t deserve her and I’m glad she got to live her life how she wanted.
Thank you for making this. RIP Shelley.
Shelley's character, Wendy, in The Shinning, was marvelous.
But my absolute favorite was her starring alongside Robin Williams in the 1980 film Popeye. I still find it incredible how she actually dimensionalized a cartoon character, Olive Oyl. PERFECTION!!! 👍
The is a story that has needed to be told. Thank you for this.
They definitely pushed her too far. She is one of my favorite underrated actresses. She deserved more.
Dr. Phil is a REAL piece of work!
He's not even a real doctor Try and look him up, I would ask anyone who attempted to say otherwise to me.
@@gigi9301 You are correct he's'one of Oprah's and it's all about the money..... no real ethics.
@@lindadeal3344 agreed, an asshole of highest degree
Agreed, an asshole of highest degree
@lindadeal3344
Oh yeah, a piece of something not remotely close to work IMO.
I found this very respectful and preserves the memory of her career and her life well. Rest in peace Shelly...❤
Shes nice to everyone. No matter who they are. Totally understanding. They should've done this 20 years ago, then we could've showed her.
Thank u Shelley. My bestie is happy to meet u up there. He was a kubrick fan and of yours. Hollywood is cruel, im glad u left . Sorry they neglected you. Being such a historical gen, u deserved way better later years
Never do TV interviews. They can edit them to make you look dumb or smart or crazy depending on the producer's intent. Just don't.
@@martinharris5017 : Prince Andrew has entered chat…
@@djquinn11 yeah, well, there are some people who just can't be helped...not that you'd want to in his case...
Tale as old as time
Only agree to do them, if they're live interviews that can't be edited or changed afterward.
@@kenw9681 Well, here's the problem. After its aired "live" it's open-season for everyone and their dog to record it, edit segments out and spread them all over social media, usually with some comment or text to further misrepresent whatever you've said.
Best bet is just not to do it.
I lived in Blanco during Shelly's time there. She had the habit of walking incessantly. On country roads, the highway, and the streets in the very small town. Her thoughts were far afield on the infrequent times I talked to her, but she seemed intently focused on something personal. She was virtually unrecognizable. Alas, I thought she was so beautiful as a young woman ❤
Duvall forever won me over as a 12 yr old kid when she played Olive Oil. I loved the way Duvall and Robin Williams brought a childhood favorite cartoon to life. I had no ideal what Dr Phill had done to her until today. All I ever knew from was tv but she seemed so genuine.
In the last couple of years I seen a TH-cam piece of a couple who ran into her by coincidence and she was so kind and warm to them in the same way I had imagined her to be. Dr phill should be ashamed of himself.
Thank you for showing her the respect she deserved in your piece on her.
I saw 2 or 3 interviews done by a guy. Shelly was always sitting in her car and the guy talking to her through the driver's window. From what I could see, it seems like she always had a lot of in her car. I had to wonder if she was living in it. I felt so sad for her, she looked disheveled, tired and unwell. When I heard of her passing, I wondered if she had someone looking out for her. Breaks my heart. Such a sweet soul.
Dr. Phil is a narcissist and brings humans who are in pain and vulnerable on his shows. His show is like one of those old carnival shows of freaks. He then makes their pain worse by being a bully. He should have whatever license he has taken away from him.
As for Shelly, she was beautiful and had that childlike way about her that is hard to resist. Thank you for honoring her memory in such a positive way!!!
Shame on Phil! Shame Shame Shame
I hope Shelly is happy where shes at now. Most of us are just looking for peace and tranquility with some love as we navigate through life. See you on the other side , I hope
You might enjoy Soul Crossings with Cash Peters. It's really unique. He gives a fly on the wall look at each person's transition. He draws what he sees. 🫢
I've never been a fan of Mr Phil but when I saw his hideous treatment of a very fragile woman I was appalled. I hope Ms. Duvall has found peace.
Dr. Phil: "That Duvall episode we did last week really got a poor response. I mean people really hated it and were venting to the media and just basically tearing me apart about my intensions. We need a part 2 ASAP!"
Thank you for a well-informed and dignified tribute to this gem of a person!
Thank you for the thoughtful and respectful examination of her career. She was a very talented and unique actress. Dr. Phil should be embarrassed for exploiting her near the end of her life, but it's obvious that he has no shame.
Beautiful tribute. Thank you!
This was my favorite of all your programs. Shelly was fantastic and a great actress. It's a shame the doctor threw her under the bus to make his show.
None of us stay young forever unless we die young. Ageing has its own bags of tricks to throw at us. He may not escape it's cruel work.
May he not escape his karma. No one can outrun fate.
Ha has so much plastic surgery now if you look at him he is very plastic faced now
I saw Bruster in the theater with my than girlfriend/now wife in 1971.
It was very enjoyable & we loved Shelly & Sally Kellerman, the original Hot Lips O'Houlihan.
I don't think comparing her to a Modigliani painting is an insult; it's a compliment. We all know those paintings portray a certain unique beauty -- which Duvall also had.
Beautiful tribute of someone who is mentally ill like me. We don’t often get such treatment. Tysm
' Three Women' was a bizarre film that haunted me for years. Very powerful.
Love you Shelly!
I've never forgotten that movie, but have found it impossible to watch since it was released.
You have very pleasant voice. And the biography is perfectly done. Thank you 🙂🙂🙂
Rest in peace, beautiful singular Shelley. ❤
Edit: Thank you uploader for this very tender and informative tribute to her. So well done!
Faerie Tale Theatre was one of my favorite series. It was so imaginative & great for all ages. Shelley was a kind & curious pixie. She always stood out in a crowd. Shame on Dr. Phil for exploiting her pain to advance his failing ratings. He hasn't been a license psychologist for 18 years. Rest in love & light sweet lady. You are truly missed...🙏
Thank you for this excellent tribute to Shelley Duvall. I never realized how beautiful shewas.
That last portrait you showed of her was gorgeous and classy. Thank you. Some of her stories passing chose the most unflattering pics of her last decade or so. Awesome
She was born the very same day as my Dad! Best day ever. ❤❤❤
@@holmcm751 7/7 👏
As a kid I loved the Popeye comic strips so when the movie came out I was excited to see it. Shelly was incredible, she brought Olive to life in a way I didn't think was possible. She captured every movement, every expression, and even her voice was perfect because it echoed what I had always heard in my head when reading the comic strip. Amazing actress.
Dr Phil is disgusting. What he did to her was so shameful.
She had the most amazing eyes and her sweet and gentle spirit never failed to shine. RIP 💔🙏
I didn't know who she was before" The Shining." My brother said she looked like a chihuahua. I won't be so unkind. She seemed to be a lovely person in your documentary. RIP Shelley
The last BW picture of her is absolutely enchanting. Not sure when it's from, but my goodness it's lovely.
Absolutely brilliant… covered with aplomb!
Fly high Shelley in the 5D… 🕊️
A beautiful lady who came from another dimension not of this world 🕯️
So good. So perfect. I was saddened by her death earlier this month. I loved her in her films. This was a great tribute
Thanks for watching!
I learned alot about somebody I had no idea about. Shelly Duvall was obviously a very smart girl/ woman. No doubt the innocent naivite was an act mixed with
a Mid Western Texas up bringing. This story of her life is fascinating. She definitly had a face and figure almost alien as well as medieval. The camera made her amazing and unique and beautiful at times. And, the perfect Olive Oil at the same time. I am going to investigate all this work she did. She is wonderful and interesting. Thank you. For telling her story. I loved the 1970's. They were my young life. A very different time all together..
@@jppage3292 mid-western texas is the region of texas where Dallas is.
♥️
I love that last picture of her smiling. She looks great to me.
@@jamietingey7498 absolutely very beautiful 😍
I agree. If we just allowed women to get old… an old face reflects and radiates a life lived and gains complexity. So many of us have a beloved mother or grandmother whose face is full of expressive beauty. ❤
Robert Altman's Three Women (1977) is a favorite of mine. Altman's sets are always a trigger to how it really looked and felt. Duvall's subdued originality puts her right there as well. She always had the energy that she could run off. Splitting Hollywood made sense to me. I split it myself.
Damn. Her favorite restaurant was Red Lobster. A regular girl that went through the Hollywood ringer, meat market, before all the reforms. She stayed that and came out the other end.
I waited on her and her partner 20 something years ago. I was excited to recognize her, not for the Shining but for Popeye.
She was one of those people that are really lovely people but she was sadly broken.
Once she did realize my excitement was for Olive Oyl because i was 5 when both came out, she was excited with me. Sounds funny, but she absolutely is my favorite celeb meeting.
Very insightful video. RIP sweet Shelley. SHAME on Dr. Phil!!!
Shame on the director of The Shining as well. He destroyed King's story, the character of Wendy and wounded Shelley physically and emotionally! That movie was so badly adapted that I can't even watch it.
@@mcraig1969I lost all respect for Stanley Kubrick. He was awful to her and I think she carried that trauma with her for the rest of her life.
Whatever Mr.King said of who he thought the character "should have been" Shelly Duval was the PERFECT CHOICE for the charecter of Mrs. Torrence. No one else could have pulled it off the way she did. And every charecter I saw her play. I watch The Shining every time it plays and I love it every time!
Shes one of the things that makes that movie as great as it is!
Shelley had very beautiful and expressive eyes. Almost Bette Davis Eyes.
I think her eyes were better than Bette Davis.
Her eyes are so innocent and vulnerable though-makes you want to protect her. Betty Davis looked a little jaded and bitter.
Thank you for this respectful and informative video on my friend Shelley 😭 you had me crying by the end of it! She was such a special and kind hearted woman with a magnetic and bright talent and that’s what she should be remembered for ❤ we miss you Shelley!
She wasn’t long for the cruel world of Hollywood. She was above the shallow.
Shelly Duvall looked just about like my mom.
I remember watching the shining as a kid in the late 70's. I looked just like the boy in the film also my name is Danny! That movie was the only one that ever scared me.
I can't stand D.r Plill. He is a piece of human waste.
She has the french anesthetic like no other woman i have ever seen.
@@Basackwrdsnah, I got it, lots of girls do too. We're like a strange breed or something

Strange is so interesting 🤔😮 😏
37:57 she was beautiful until the very end! Look at the love and light in her eyes! I love you Shelly Duvall! Good on you! Rest in Peace, Shelly! Peace be with you!
She's so iconic in that Vidal Sassoon blunt bob.
Your voice is so pleasant and mixed with the rain in the background, it makes me want to sleep. Your script has kept me awake, however.
OMG - love this episode! I learned a lot, and it touched my heart. RIP Shelley.
Thank you for honoring her memory ❤ I started binge watching Faerie Tale Theater with Shelley Duvall. The credits say she created, produced, and acted in some episodes. There's 26 episodes and they're about an hour long. I'm obsessed! I think it's tragic what happened to her. She was beautiful, talented, and really trying to make it in the business part of Hollywood, not just acting. Dr. Phil is disgusting for exploiting her and fabricating stories. May her beautiful soul be at peace ❤
I only just found your channel. I sincerely applaud the efforts you put into researching Shelley's life. She will be missed.
Welcome aboard!
@@HollywoodMysteries Wondering if Dr Phil's attorney should be contacting you in the near future.
The 1967 disaster at Cape Kennedy was not a "crash" but rather a tragic fire that swept through the Command Module, trapping and killing our three astronauts during a pre-flight test.
ye, I think that was the actual scenario....the 3 men couldn't get the door open from the inside, the NASA people made some big changes to the equipment after that.
Shelly was a talented, gentle, beautiful woman... Always.
Your narrative style is so very captivating. I’ve really enjoyed watching this documentary about Shelley Duvall. Listening to you narrate, using your soft, but alluring vocal tone made me listen.
I really enjoy watching this, despite how sad Shelley Duval ended up. Even still, I felt as though you did her more than justice but honor among the Hollywood’s forgotten,acting greats.
New fan,
Vince
Glad you enjoyed it!
Truly a highly talented actor and an icon.
Really, really enjoyed the production on this episode and for the channel. Wonderful narration, fantastic title sequence and music, plus the sensitive and insightful narrative.
She was really so unusually stunning. Not conventional in the least, but beautiful none the less. She had a wonderful heart and people stomped on it. Super sad how the media vanpires drained her of her spirit and sanity. RIP Shelley, fly higher than you ever dreamed you could. Your talent was second only to your beauty❤
I grew up watching her movies as a kid she was my first crash ❤ this documentary is very beautiful made RIP Ms Duvall
💔 she was a beautiful woman with a beautiful soul. Thank you for this tribute to her!
What a great doc! And what an amazing life. Masterfully done. Poignant and moving and just like miss Duvall.....captivating. thank you.
Thank you!
I agree with your comment, but you seriously do not know how to spell "poignant".
@@nursesusan2010 this is true. Spelling is not my fortieth .almost spelled that wrong. Spell check catches that but not poignant. Thanks I'll edit my comment. It was close though, its a silent g. Or would you believe.. it's the Canadian spelling?lol
