The Brightest Stars Of The ’80s And Where They Ended Up
Shelley Duvall – 71
Shelley Duvall, the doe-eyed actress best known for her performance in The Shining, made headlines in recent years for tragic reasons. Duvall, who is 69, appeared in a trailer for a new series of Dr. Phil, a US television show in which the famous psychologist analyses celebrities. Even in the space of a 30-second trailer, the actress made worrying admissions: that she believed her late friend Robin Williams was not dead, but shape shifting; that she was being harassed by the Sheriff of Nottingham and that a disk is whirring in her leg. “I’m very sick,” she told Dr. Phil, “I need help.” Duvall was quite clearly traumatized after her main role in the film The Shining. Duvall’s time in that movie was quite traumatic for her as the director used questionable means to get her into character. Duvall was so traumatized that she did not return to the cinematic industry save for a few movies.
