I don't know too much about the horrors Shelley Duvall underwent during the making of The Shining, but I've heard just enough to know that it was at the very least unethical. And sure we can marvel at her performance of fear and horror. It was impressive.
But it also manages, to people who are me, to fall flat in its lack of dimension.
People suffering the sort of torment Wendy are under are not only experiencing fear, confusion, and horror. They're also angry and vindictive and vengeful at times.
What if they'd let her fully act the fear so that she could have pulled back and displayed a glimmer of satisfaction when she hit Jack with the bat, a sense of the hilarious/humor as he went head over heels down the stairs? What I wouldn't have given for a sense of rage and fury as she dragged him through the halls of the hotel to lock him in the pantry. A woman dealing with the shit that she's been under would probably have a moment of sadistic satisfaction when he cries out that she may have really hurt him, he's dizzy, and now he wants that doctor she'd mention.
Sure those may be things that at the time might not have gotten written into a script because maybe at that time, women weren't like that(tm). But that's exactly why Duvall should have been left the choice to act with all her wits about her. Actors bring small nuanced moments like that to roles all the time because they are the ones trying to fit their minds into it wholly and completely and without consultation of any of the other characters around them. And they can bring insights into that role that others may not have thought to.
Think Furiosa re her scream in the desert. That was Theron's idea. And when asked where she found that rage—a question that maybe, in a different world, Duvall might have been able to make the space for—she responded that women just have that rage. A good actress will find it and put it where it's needed to go, in places her male coworkers might not think to put that.
Sure I don't think there was any performing better than she did during the bathroom scene, but almost everywhere else, I just got so tired of the constant fear/sadness of the performance, which I believe is exactly what was aimed at by the creators for the film. It was exhausting not in a way that makes me feel Wendy's exhaustion, but made her a caricature that she didn't deserve being.
There's nothing wrong with someone in her situation feeling mostly fear and terror, but it's absurd to think it's just that.
Fuck. Where was the disassociation? We got it maybe for the moment she sliced Jack's hand?
I dunno. I'm sure many people have spoken on this much better than me before and probably having seen it more than one (1) single time and have better, more sophisticated thoughts. It was a good movie. I don't recall anyone putting Jack through shit to get his performance and he did a great job, with lots of various emotions throughout. Let actors do their job.

Why do I like Rhea Ripley so much? Well she's a badass superhero with a crazy vibe and breathtaking style. But what I usually don't say is that when she's about to fight she seems to be so free, confident, she's afraid of nothing and determined to get what she wants, a demon that will eat you alive if you get in her way. That's what I love about her character, she represents the dark side we all hide, our brutality and she's proud of showing it, she's so damn powerful and she knows it. That feeling of wanting to win, the ambition of being the absolute best, that hunger that she's got, that's what makes me love her! 💪🏻💪🏻🔥😈
I feel like she understood me without even ever talking to me, please never change and keep being this awesome!

The eight #majorarcana is #thestrength, and I love it because it reminds us that there are many ways of being strong. For the #buildingblockstarot, the card is #War, Eryn, because she really tries to be the inspire those who fight for good causes.

I dont talk about liveship traders a lot cuz i have fitz brainrot but these books are literally so good i just love how robin hobb explores the relationships between the vestrit women and how each of them grapples with their patriarchal society, i love a story that follows multiple generations of a family and how the members parallel and contrast each other, i love their character development and how hobb realistically portrays their struggles with unlearning misogynistic believes and the generational divide in the way they look at the world. I just love the vestrits a lot

Being a "Good Wife" Versus Being"Rebellious as Hell"
I’m a Rebellious-As-Hell Wife. Hello, that’s me. I said it. I’m not a “good wife” and I am good with that. Being married is so freaking hard when it’s the second (or third time…) Do You Know Which You Are? Question Yourself. As a wife, do you succumb to what is expected? Do you feel fortunate just to have a man? Do you accept what is thought of as the best possible scenario…. or do you…
