On a winding back road of Texas Hill Country, Shelley Duvall pulled over and lit another cigarette.
“How did you like Egypt?” she called out from the white Toyota 4Runner she spends most of her days in, and some nights, much to the chagrin of her partner, Dan Gilroy.
“Next stop: Santa Fe!” she announced before vanishing down the road in a cloud of dust.
To follow Ms. Duvall, 74, on the road and in conversation, is to enter into powerfully imaginative realms.
Stories that begin in a certain direction have a habit of taking the scenic route, and, occasionally, swerving excitingly off-piste.
