I FINALLY watch THE SHINING (1980) for the FIRST TIME! 🔥
------------------------------------
Movie Summary:
Jack Torrance (Jack Nicholson) becomes winter caretaker at the isolated Overlook Hotel in Colorado, hoping to cure his writer's block. He settles in along with his wife, Wendy (Shelley Duvall), and his son, Danny (Danny Lloyd), who is plagued by psychic premonitions. As Jack's writing goes nowhere and Danny's visions become more disturbing, Jack discovers the hotel's dark secrets and begins to unravel into a homicidal maniac hell-bent on terrorizing his family.

When you said ‘shes not gonna be ok after this’ i truly felt that, but you probably dont know why. Shelley Duvall had severe mental health issues during and after the filming of this movie. Interviews say the Kubrick pushed her to her limit and beyond to get the right shots. After releasing the movie, she delt with lots of trauma and had a difficult time recovering and getting back into acting, let alone her regular life.

I think pushing someone over the edge like that to get genuine trauma and fear out of them quite literwlly negates the art of acting. The art of acting is being able to get into the headspace of a character and being able to display a range of complex emotions even though they aren't real. If you just throw a great actor in front of a camera and genuinely terrorize them to film their emotional is, you arent getting an acted performance anymore.

Ok…not to be THAT person lol but the furry scene is so random with no context I’ll explain. They had furry parties and orgies in the hotel back in the day, and one particular couple was so dom/sub they stayed that way in death. If I remember right; it’s been a while since I read it. The story is actually a huge metaphor for addiction.

"Heeeeere's Johnny!" Fun Fact: Theatrical movie debut of Danny Lloyd. Not An American Fact: As he lived in England, Stanley Kubrick was not at all familiar with the "Heeeeere's Johnny" line (from The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson (1962)) that Jack Nicholson improvised. He very nearly didn't use it. Hot Take Fact: There is a great deal of confusion regarding this film and the number of retakes of certain scenes. According to the Guinness Book of Records, the scene where Wendy is backing up the stairs swinging the baseball bat was shot 127 times, which is a record for the most takes of a single scene. However, both Steadicam operator Garrett Brown and assistant editor Gordon Stainforth say this is inaccurate. The scene was shot about thirty-five to forty-five times. Method Director Fact: Despite Stanley Kubrick's fierce demands on everyone, Jack Nicholson admitted to having a good working relationship with him. It was with Shelley Duvall that he was a completely different director. He allegedly picked on her more than anyone else. He would really lose his temper with her, even going so far as to say that she was wasting the time of everyone on the set. She later reflected that he was probably pushing her to her limits to get the best out of her and that she wouldn't trade the experience for anything, but it was not something she ever wished to repeat.

“All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy”.. is an old saying, meaning that you shouldn’t work too hard.. relax and have fun once in awhile.. otherwise you just become an uninteresting boring person with “no life”. Here’s Johnny!!”.. the classic introduction on the iconic and long time Tonight Show host, Johnny Carson!!.. as classic a line as Bugs Bunny’s “What’s Up Doc?”, or Friends “How YOU doing’?!”, Homer Simpson’s “Dooah!!”, King of the Hill’s “Dammit Bobby!”.. you get the idea.

In the book, Jack is acting the way he acted when he was drinking. I think that's the key to Nicholson's performance. If you notice, when he takes that first drink offered by Lloyd, his face as almost identical to his face near the end, in the "frozen" scene. You can see a young version of "Lloyd" -- or at least the actor who played him -- in another great Kubrick film, this one from the early 60s -- PATHS OF GLORY.

1. Joe Turkel/Lloyd plays Tyrell in the original "Bladerunner" 😇 2. "Here's Johnny" was adlib by Nickelson. 3. It took over 60 takes for Jack to chop through the doors. He used his voluntary firefighting skills to get through all the takes. Doors had to be made because he went through them so rapidly. 4. The reason King didn't like this adaptation of the movie is because he didn't like the changes Kubrick made. This thing was remade just for King and although the remake was more in line with the book IMVHO it wasn't as good at this one. 5. Two of the changes he didn't like were Jack's decent into madness was too rapid, and Wendy wasn't such a patsy in the book. 6. Shelley Duval said making this film was the worst thing she ever experienced in her life. She said she wouldn't do it again. 7. Jack Nicholson and Scatman worked together in "One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest". 8. The real villain here is the hotel itself. 9. Watch Dr. Sleep. Danny is an adult and many of the loose ends will be cleared up. TUESDAY!😱

30:25 The reason that Stephen King started writing these horror books because he stayed at a haunted hotel called the Stanley Hotel, which is notoriously haunted. He experienced something there that inspired him to write The shining and he's been writing horror books ever since. It's about mental and psychological corruption called cabin fever which is a result of severe isolation. And yes he played the joker. Good video as usual

Jack Nicholson is a legend. He is an absolute GOAT. A brilliant actor, in everything he was in. Sadly, he is up in years now and his health is not the best - but he left an unforgettable, badass catalog of work. More analyses and dissertations and debates have been done about this film and its meaning, the cinematography, little things you see in individual shots, the colors and pattern choices - to this day, it still is a topic of discussion. The shots of those twins is considered some of the most disturbing and unsettling shots in cinema. If it creeped you out and felt disturbing, then Stanley Kubrick succeeded. The "Heeere's Johnny was adlibbed by Nicholson and came from the old Tonight Show with Johnny Carson back in the 60's thru early 90's. Announcer Ed Mahon would introduce Johnny Carson in that way "Heeeeere's Johnny!!"

I have a theory that Jack Torrance had the shining, but he suppressed it for most of his life, until he reached the Overlook Hotel. His psychic power allowed him to easily see and interact with the ghosts haunting the hotel. Accordingly, the ghosts wanted to possess Jack's soul and absorb his power. Danny Torrance would have inherited his psychic abilities from Jack.

Will purely add on top of all the info others have given an extra note to film vs book: Like others have said, major changes were made and King didn't like it.... ...and for good reason. Not anything minor here and there to make it work for film better. Characters are very significantly different, character development also, story progression, key scenes, layouts and changes to the setting, important job specifics Jack's, the entire last half of the film almost, the entire ending, any form of explanation beyond a 80s trope additon of "Indian Burial Ground" while all explanation of what happened and why stripped.... it bears only a a few important details at all with the book. Hence why it is more a psychological tension/thriller rather than horror (though the book is a mix), why so much doesn't make sense, why characters seem shallow... And it's not at all either that the things that would've helped or that would've made it more scary with the tension building and explanations would've been difficult with the time of the film run or the potential for effects, etc. Kubrick just butchered it to make it his own without taking the effort to develop a new story. As with Starship Troopers, the book and movie aren't really the same story at all. They're just similar and drew attention off having the same title. Though, admittedly, Starship Troopers is a a much, much, much worse case of that. On an unrelated to the damage done and poor quality, imo, of the movie (mind you, not the performances at all... they all, and Jack Nicholson as usual is amazing, in what they were given as characters in this version) a little but annoying detail I noticed only after watching the movie many times over the years (I'm not saying it's a horrid movie, just not well done in itself *and* barely related to the book) is the Wendy trying to get out the bathroom window scene. If you watch it back again... she can fit. Where she is "stuck" she can't get the narrower/thinner parts of her body through where she already has. Shelly Duvall where she is "stuck" could have easily fit through. They could've done *something* about that scene to not make it where the actress could slide through the window, especially when the character is supposed to be trying to escape death.

I'm a Shining Conspiracy Theorist and I like to pose questions that make people think more deeply about Kubrick's film. For example: Who are the two twin girls Danny sees in the hallway? Kubrick cast identical twin girls in this role. At the beginning of the film, we are told that the old caretaker, Charles Grady, had two daughters who were eight and ten. So, why is Danny seeing twins? Another question: "Why are there two Grady's?" As previously mentioned, the ex-caretaker of the Overlook Hotel was a man named Charles Grady. In a later scene, Jack meets a man called Delbert Grady in the red bathroom. What's up with the two Grady's? How about this one: "Why doesn't anyone see the same ghosts?" If the hotel is haunted at all, you'd assume there would be the ghost of someone who had died there haunting the family. Let's say, for example, the bartender is a vengeful ghost haunting the hotel. Why doesn't he appear to Danny or Wendy? Why is it that whenever Jack sees a ghost, he's looking directly into a mirror?

Hi, I'm a new subscriber. I love this movie, but the book was very different from it. I think that if I was in Jack's place, I'd probably feel like him at first. He's a writer (like me), and a place of total quiet would seem like a good idea at first. However, even without the supernatural element, it would be very difficult to be so isolated, especially in the dead of winter. Thank you for the reaction.

I was 11 when my dad took me and all my friends to see spicegirls in london, one evening the adults were downstairs in the bar while us kids had a huge slumber party in one of our rooms. My dad had planned for us to watch arachnophobia thinking out our age it would be a good scary movie as we had requested one but not too scary violence wise. He left us to it and left the tv on the correct channel saying it would start at 9pm. Unfortunately for us my dad put on the wrong channel and inadvertently left us watching the shining. We were terrifed, once introduced to the twins we had had enough and a group of us went looking for the adults as we were too scared to be alone. Only issue the hotel we were in was an old english pub/hotel the upstairs hallways were very similar to the ones in this hotel long and then sharp turns with no jdeanwho could be around the corner.

SPOILER ALERT!!!! this movie is about the violence of man, passing it down through the generations from father to son, and is explored through themes of genocide of native americans from east to west. if you pay attention, at the beginning mother and son are wearing the american colours in solid block pattern, which changes later in the movies - especially with the mother - as they slowly become victim to the violence of man. The clothes become more natural tans and brown and reflect the traditional clothes worn by natives (also reflected in props and background decoration). The scene in which they drive to the hotel shows them travelling westward to the hotel which itself if built upon a sacred native burial ground. The little red ball represents the violence of the father (who starts to bounce it when he begins to get agitated and restless) being passed onto the son (who receives it as an insidious token in the hospital after the ordeal.

Most of the famous scenes in this move are NOT in the book. The Maze, Here's Johnny, the ending with him in the photo. So if that photo ending makes no sense it's cause it doesn't.

Room 237 is haunted by the ghost of an elderly lady, who drowned herself in her bathtub. She......wasn't found for awhile. She appears also as her younger self; Both naked ghosts are the same person

In the book, the mechanic Watson goes into detail about how the lady in room 217, (in the book the room is 217) died. Short version: she was a rich lawyer’s wife who had a boy toy she was paying for his “company”. She was drinking heavily and decided to mix it with sleeping pills.

I almost expected for the wife to open a room door and Pee Diddy is on the bed with Meek Mills and all she hears is “take it all Daddy” as you hear balls slapping on cheeks.

When Danny comes down the stairs with his ripped shirt, and "dribble" down his mouth... there's a lot of back story to this and there's a LOT of evidence to suggest Jack was raping him. The pictures on the walls depict rapes, the "rocket" jumper showing phallic symbols - the "dribble" isn't... err, "spit"... and he's unable to speak. Jack clearly did SOMETHING to him (it WAS jack) ... basically he's been abusing and raping his child and wife for years.

Less than a minute in, I can’t watch. If you’re going to do movie reactions, maybe have the most basic knowledge of film. “Stanley Qbik? Koobit?” Don’t make a complete fool of yourself in the first minute.
