The nation went through this creative dip artistically after the 60s, where younger people didn't like musicals. I always loved them. If Popeye was re-released today, it would most likely make big profits, on top of recouping losses from when it was released.

@@mikekaraoke Im from USA/Mex, I used to check out all the VHS tapes at my local library over and over again. I was addicted to the stories and what I didn't know as I got older that she told them in a more authentic way true to the novels. I didn't even see that was a Faerie Tale theater box! LOL good eye! I think I did see the tall tales series but I don't think I ever saw all of them. Shelley was def a great talent! I just remembered UK is the birthplace of theater if I'm not mistaken, I actually visited UK a while back and tried to see Shakespeare's home where he was born and also died, but sadly I wasn't able to get to visit due to the time crunch of fitting all the touring I was doing in the UK it was great.

[@stressmuffin]

When I was 7-years-old in the early ‘80’s, I fell in love with Shelley as an actress in the film Popeye as Olive Oyl. I’m sorry that people called Shelley Olive, but Shelley was tall and skinny, but she wasn’t ugly. In fact, Shelley looked so beautiful as Olive Oyl. I’m crying right now, because another acting idol and someone who made my childhood in the early ‘80’s happy is gone, yet never forgotten. Thank you Miss Shelley for making me smile and just entertain me via your movies I saw. It breaks my heart that I will never get a chance to see her in person, much less meet her, and get a chance to perform with her on a movie and TV show set. I’m starting to do acting videos on my You Tube channel, because I miss acting so much. I haven’t done acting since my high school drama days. I’ll carry on Shelley’s acting legacy on my You Tube channel. RIP Shelley 😘😪🙏🏼

Big shout out to GrimmLifeCollective for putting fans in touch with her before it was too late. It was really nice to see her in that light after hearing about what a reclusive weirdo she became (Mainstream medias portrayal, not mine).

I remember her from the Fairy Tale Theater. When I was a little girl, we didn’t read fairy tales at home and very little at school. So these VHS tapes were truly enchanting to me. I loved them because of her! Now that I’m a mother, fairy tales are an important part of my family’s home school. We read from The Brothers Grimm, and Hans Christian Andersen, East O The Sun, West O The Moon, and Arabian Nights. Shelley is a big part of the reason my children are blessed with fairy tales.

Mental illness robs many women of longer lives. I believe, for many women entering menopause, hormone levels, lack of sleep, hot flushes, stress, anxiety and no partner to rely on for assistance and no mental health care leads to an early demise. It was obvious Ms. Duval was suffering from mental illness and appeared to be alone. May she rest easy now!

She wasnt alone she was married

[@vallejoborncalihasbecomeal9022]

@brooke9225 Even worse. It appears even her spouse couldn't help her. I know she died of diabetes complications but, it was obvious she suffered mental illness and I think hormonal imbalance due to menopause affects women more than we understand it does!

[@brooke9225]

@@vallejoborncalihasbecomeal9022 as a woman please be quiet . Menopause didn't do this to her she was 75 so she would have been passed menopause. It doesn't make you go crazy you tool. Yes she died of complications due to diabetes. She did have a history of mental health issues which started after working on the shining..the director tortured her and she by her own admission had to go into therapy after working on the film and slowly moved away from acting as a result..she's not been in the public eye for decades now so we don't know everything about her mental state at the time of death. But my God do not talk about menopause and blame that on her well being and part of why she died. You sound ridiculous

[@ettajohnson8234]

Every single problem you stated here is absolutely correct! I am so sorry that Shelly had mental illness and that the community in which she lived cared so much about her. I'm glad Hollywood remembers and celebrated such an established actress. RIP Shelly Duvall❤

[@mazie7952]

My friend went thru a bad menopause. She was absolutely crazy. Drs said she was bipolar and put her on a ton of meds She got worse. One day she was listening to a show about menopause and how women get misdiagnosed. She went to an endocrinologist and was put on hormonal replacement and within 4 months she was like nothing had ever happened. Some ppl go thru it really bad. No sleep sweats fits of rage while others have very little systems or none at all
