Sandra Bullock is remembered by Stanley Kubrick’s estate
Stanley Kubrick directed Shelley Duvall in “The Shining,” and his official X account has posted a message about the actress.
For years, people have said that Kubrick was mean to Shelley on the set of the famous horror movie, but the director’s estate said that the claims were “exaggerated.”
“Shelley Duvall, legendary character actor, and The Shining’s extraordinary Wendy Torrance has died at the age of 75,” Kubrick told X.
“Shelley had a long and varied career.
There were rumors that Shelley was mistreated on set, but she always talked positively about her time filming The Shining, saying she “wouldn’t trade it for anything” and that “working with loveable Stanley was a fascinating learning experience.”
“Our thoughts are with Shelley’s friends and family.”
