A Peek Into Shirley's Personal Life
For Shirley, the idea for the book was born out of her own passion for photography and her desire to preserve cherished moments. The walls of her Malibu home are adorned with countless photographs, which sparked the inspiration to compile them into a book. “About 45 years ago, I started putting together framed photographs of friends, family, and colleagues on one of my living room walls,” she revealed. “Everyone who visited loved this collection, and so The Wall of Life came to life. I’m thrilled to share some of these photos—and the stories behind them—with everyone through this book.”
Shirley's Upcoming Film Project: "People Not Places"
But that’s not all Shirley has in store. The iconic actress is also working on a new movie titled People Not Places, currently filming in Atlantic City. The film tells the heartwarming story of a widow, played by Shirley, who forms an unexpected friendship with a homeless man portrayed by Stephen Dorff. According to Deadline, director Brad Furman is ecstatic about collaborating with Shirley on this indie drama. “This is the opportunity of a lifetime,” he said. “Shirley and Stephen have been preparing for this film for years, and their dedication to their craft is truly unmatched. Even at 90, Shirley’s energy and talent are remarkable. She’s at the top of her game.”
Brad also shared that the film is deeply personal, as the script was written by his mother. “It’s an ode to mothers and an incredible journey I’m honored to embark on with my family by my side,” he added.
With a career as illustrious as Shirley’s, it’s no surprise that she continues to captivate audiences with her work. From her upcoming book to her latest film, Shirley MacLaine proves that age is just a number and her passion for storytelling remains as strong as ever.
