It’s the film we all know so well: the renowned horror classic The Shining. Uncover the secrets and backstories behind this movie, from the original terrible reviews, to Kubrick’s temper, to a particularly tasteless breakup at the airport. Why the name? The infamous typewriter scene where Jack types and re-types reams of paper with the phrase “all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy” was reshot with different translations for several languages. The Italian version saw Jack writing “Il mattino ha l'oro in bocca,” or "The morning has gold in its mouth."SUPPORT THE SHOW! patreon.com/texastwiggyredcircle.com/texastwiggyAvery Instagram @p.avery.eSarahInstagram @shelleyduvallxo and @sarlukowski TikTok @shelleyduvallxoOliviaInstagram @oliviasprngSpotify @stonewashedworld Meemmalehman.comTwitter @crumblylemonInstagram @lemoncrumbz and @backstitchbaby Patrons:Ken LehmanDuane LehmanXavier HamelJosé ArmentaJustine SpringbergKelly ElasserLiz WheelerCavid DassidySharonSarah ElizabethDan TravisSophia PulidoSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/texastwiggy/exclusive-content

Shelley Alexis Duvall was born on July 7th, 1949 in Fort Worth, Texas to an insurance broker and one of Houston’s first woman real estate agents. 70 years later, I would stumble across one of her films on Amazon Prime and Google her name. 3 years after that, and I am sitting in the passenger seat of her brother’s car, 1,500 miles from my own apartment, idling in front of her childhood home. How did it all come to be, and what is Texas Twiggy?SUPPORT THE SHOW!patreon.com/texastwiggyredcircle.com/texastwiggyAveryInstagram @p.avery.eSarahInstagram @shelleyduvallxo and @sarlukowskiTikTok @shelleyduvallxoOliviaInstagram @oliviasprngSpotify @stonewashedworldMeemmalehman.comTwitter @crumblylemonInstagram @lemoncrumbz and @backstitchbabySupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/texastwiggy/exclusive-content

Shelley Duvall is most known for her portrayal of Wendy Torrance in Stanley Kubrick's 1980 film The Shining, a performance that launched her into the public consciousness and furthered an already prolific career. But after decades in film, production, writing, composing, and the release of two musical albums, Duvall seemingly dropped off the face of the earth... Until a disastrous 2016 appearance on the Dr. Phil show, so maligned that it never aired. Texas Twiggy dives deep into the life and work of Shelley Duvall, with plenty of twists and turns along the way.Support Texas Twiggy at patreon.com/texastwiggy, or by making a one-time donation on redcircle.com/texastwiggy.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/texastwiggy/exclusive-content
