Duvall's next role was that of [[Wendy Torrance]] in ''[[The Shining (film)|The Shining]]'' (1980), directed by [[Stanley Kubrick]]. [[Jack Nicholson]] said in the 2001 documentary ''[[Stanley Kubrick: A Life in Pictures]]'' that Kubrick was great to work with but that he was "a different director" with Duvall. Because of Kubrick's methodical nature, [[principal photography]] took a year to complete. The film's script was changed so often that Nicholson stopped reading each draft. Kubrick antagonized his actors, and Kubrick and Duvall argued frequently. Kubrick intentionally isolated Duvall, and went through exhausting shoots, such as the [[baseball bat]] scene, which she had performed 127 times.<ref>{{Cite web|last=Abbott|first=Christian|date=February 19, 2022|title=The Shining: Shelley Duvall's 'unbearable' ordeal on Stanley Kubrick film: 'Excruciating'|url=https://www.express.co.uk/entertainment/films/1568628/The-Shining-Shelley-Duvall-Stanley-Kubrick-excruciating-Jack-Nicholson|access-date=February 23, 2022|website=Express.co.uk|language=en|archive-date=February 23, 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220223180754/https://www.express.co.uk/entertainment/films/1568628/The-Shining-Shelley-Duvall-Stanley-Kubrick-excruciating-Jack-Nicholson|url-status=live}}</ref>{{Unreliable inline|date=July 2024}} Afterwards, Duvall presented Kubrick with clumps of hair that had fallen out due to the extreme stress of filming.<ref>{{cite journal| title=Roles that Drove Actors Over the Edge: Shelly Duvall in 'The Shining'|url=http://www.looper.com/1970/roles-drove-actors-edge/| journal=Looper| date=July 28, 2015| access-date=November 3, 2015| archive-date=October 31, 2015| archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151031120718/http://www.looper.com/1970/roles-drove-actors-edge/| url-status=live}}</ref> For the last nine months of shooting, she said that the role required her to cry 12 hours a day, five or six days a week,<ref>[https://www.washingtonpost.com/arts-entertainment/2022/04/02/razzies-revoke-shining-award/ Razzles revoke shining award] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230420155203/https://www.washingtonpost.com/arts-entertainment/2022/04/02/razzies-revoke-shining-award/ |date=April 20, 2023 }} The Washington Post.

Of Duvall's performance in ''The Shining'', ''[[Vulture Magazine|Vulture]]'' wrote in 2019: "Looking into Duvall's huge eyes from the front row of a theater, I found myself riveted by a very poignant form of fear. Not the fear of an actor out of her element, or the more mundane fear of a victim being chased around by an ax-wielding maniac. Rather, it was something far more disquieting, and familiar: the fear of a wife who's experienced her husband at his worst, and is terrified that she'll experience it again."<ref>{{cite web |last=Ebiri |first=Bilge |title=The Discomforting Legacy of Wendy Torrance |url=https://www.vulture.com/2019/11/the-discomforting-legacy-of-wendy-torrance.html |website=Vulture |date=November 8, 2019 |access-date=November 22, 2020 |language=en-us |archive-date=November 29, 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201129102642/https://www.vulture.com/2019/11/the-discomforting-legacy-of-wendy-torrance.html |url-status=live }}</ref> ''[[Screen Rant]]'' described her acting as her best career performance and calling her "the heart of the film; she is out of her depth in dealing with her husband's looming insanity while trying to protect her young son, all while being fearful of the malevolence around her".<ref>{{Cite web|date=August 8, 2021|title=Shelley Duvall's 10 Best Movies, According To IMDb|url=https://screenrant.com/shelley-duvall-best-films-imdb/|access-date=February 23, 2022|website=ScreenRant|language=en-US|archive-date=February 23, 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220223180758/https://screenrant.com/shelley-duvall-best-films-imdb/|url-status=live}}</ref> Even though she was praised for her portrayal,<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.looper.com/1179260/the-razzies-most-controversial-nominations-ever/ | title=The Razzies' Most Controversial Nominations Ever | date=January 26, 2023 | access-date=June 5, 2024 | archive-date=March 24, 2023 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230324085231/https://www.looper.com/1179260/the-razzies-most-controversial-nominations-ever/ | url-status=live }}</ref> Duvall's performance in ''The Shining'' was originally nominated for a [[Golden Raspberry Award for Worst Actress]].

While Duvall was in [[London]] shooting ''The Shining'', Robert Altman cast her to portray [[Olive Oyl]] in his big-screen adaptation of ''[[Popeye (film)|Popeye]]'', opposite [[Robin Williams]]. The film was a commercial success despite negative critical reviews, while Duvall was praised for her performance.<ref>{{cite web |title=Popeye |url=https://www.boxofficemojo.com/release/rl2003535361/weekend/ |access-date=November 24, 2020 |website=Box Office Mojo |archive-date=May 11, 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210511205341/https://www.boxofficemojo.com/release/rl2003535361/weekend/ |url-status=live }}</ref><ref>{{cite web |title=Critic Reviews for Popeye |url=https://www.metacritic.com/movie/popeye/critic-reviews |access-date=August 24, 2022 |website=[[Metacritic]] |archive-date=February 3, 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230203213841/https://www.metacritic.com/movie/popeye/critic-reviews |url-status=live }}</ref> Film critic Roger Ebert wrote: "Shelley Duvall is like a precious piece of china with a tinkling personality. She looks and sounds like almost nobody else, and if it is true that she was born to play the character Olive Oyl (and does so in Altman's new musical ''Popeye''), it is also true that she has possibly played more really different kinds of characters than almost any other young actress of the 1970s." (The film has been positively re-evaulated in the decades since its release.)<ref>{{cite news| last=Ebert| first=Roger| date=January 4, 1981| title=Shelley Duvall Was Ripe for Role of Olive| newspaper=Sarasota Herald-Tribune| agency=''New York Times'' Wire Service|url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=1755&dat=19810104&id=JlQ0AAAAIBAJ&pg=5578,2176306| access-date=February 9, 2022| archive-date=May 18, 2022| archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220518045915/https://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=1755&dat=19810104&id=JlQ0AAAAIBAJ&pg=5578,2176306| url-status=live}}</ref>
