Oh, I am so sorry to hear this... She was such a wonderful actress (one of my favorites) and such a gentle soul. Faerie Tale Theatre is one of my most favorite things ever. Rest in peace, dear Shelley.  |

Another icon of 1970s cinema gone. Two all timer performances in 3 Women and The Shining. RIP legend

I'm glad to find out she was in a better place by the end of her life. Every time I read about it, it was so tragic. A performance of hers I don't think gets enough love, is as the kooky waitress who Steve Martin befriends in Roxanne. RIP!

Farewell to a goddamn one-of-a-kind. I know she had serious mental health issues in the last chapter of her life, but then I saw on TikTok that she may have been turning a corner? In any event, a cinematic icon even with her slim (although enviably idiosyncratic) resume.

Iconic in The Shining, kooky in Nashville, amazing in 3 Women, brave in Casper and Wendy, and absolutely fucking hilarious and oddly fucking gorgeous in Annie Hall. What a legend. 75 is way too young.

I hope she was aware that her Shining performance got reevaluated and most people like it now. The pile on at the time hurt her career and also just seems like it shattered her confidence. She had the run in the 70's leading up to that movie and then took a hiatus (had a supporting role in Time Bandits that she filmed first but had 7 years before her next feature aside from that) and then just did little supporting roles and TV.

RIP Unique and unforgettable in everything. Love the Altmans...... refreshing in Brewster McCloud, out of her depth haunted in McCabe & Thieves Like Us, self-deluded brilliant (her best) in 3 Women, and born to play Olive Oyl (like Welles Falstaff level born-to-play). Definitely recommend the mini-movie Bernice Bobs Her Hair. Also not for nothin'..... her career slipped and slid but she appeared in several underrated movies in the '90s..... Portrait of a Lady (Jane Campion's best btw), The Underneath, some of The 4th Floor, Alone.  |

I like to imagine her taking an axe to Kubrick's afterlife door and Furiosa grabbing him through the hole, "REMEMBER ME?!"
