 That same year, in 1980, Shelley Duvall co-starred in a movie that couldn't have been more different, a comedy musical based on cartoon characters. Back with director Robert Altman again, she starred opposite Robin Williams in Popeye. He played Popeye, and she played his squeaky-voiced girlfriend, Olive Oil. The music and lyrics were by Harry Nielsen, and both the songs and her singing were as playfully strange as the movie itself.
