shelley duvall's performance in this film is one of the most intense and realistic portrayals of fear and terror i've ever seen and her skilled acting brought me to tears.
the fact that shelley duvall is constantly overlooked when ever i see anyone talk about this film is a fucking crime, especially considering the mental and emotional abuse kubrick caused her so she could maintain a realistic performance and critics didn't even mention her once upon this film's release, it's fucking disgraceful.
seriously, the lack of praise shelley has gotten in comparison to jack nicholson and other actors in the film is astounding and a goddamn crime.
shelley i'm sorry that after all your hard work and suffering that you're…
something in this movie: happens
some guy who just loves going absolutely crazy on the cello: that's my cue
I maintain that the scene with the guy in the bear costume is just something random and nobody in the film had any idea what it was supposed to mean.
I really don’t wanna be a bummer but I don’t think any movie, not even The Shining, justifies treating Shelley Duvall like that. Made me extremely sad this time around thinking about it. I just think the way we treat each other is more important than the art we make. I really do, I’m sorry. You’re not wrong for liking this, I love it, too. I promise I’ll be more lighthearted and impish in my next review.
why did netflix recommend me this based on my interest in to all the boys i've loved before

Primarily a film about abuse, and how sanity is often impossible to return to once it's lost. Jack Nicholson gives a performance that goes from 'fully crazy' to 'existential specter of rage and terror' over the course of two hours and change. Undoubtedly a masterpiece.
