One of my favorite fun facts between the movie and the book: “Come play with us, Danny,” is in the book, but the twins aren’t in it. In the book, it’s a disembodied voice coming from cement tubes in the hotel playground. It comes after an intense scene where Danny crawls around in them and snow traps him. Also, while “All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy” isn’t in the book, it IS in “Pet Sematary.”

Shelley Duvall is great in this film. One great piece of acting with convincing emotion is where she goes to lift up the bonnet of the snowcat when planning her escape, and pulls out the dismantled engine part that Jacks destroyed and holds it to her chest. The look on her face and the emotion she gives is so naturally convincing, it really is that of a woman mentally desperate who could just cry. This is when as a viewer you really feel for her situation. Great acting

Hell, Jack Nicholson praised her for her role, saying it was the most difficult role he had seen anyone take on; needless to say, Nicholson, Duvall and Scatman Crothers NEVER worked with Kubrick again (and Jack Nicholson even turned down the role that went to James Caan in Misery, another King adaptation, because he had negative memories of this movie). With regards to Crothers' death scene, Kubrick had him shoot take after take of it until Crothers finally yelled at Kubrick "What do you want from me?!?" Nicholson had to step in before it got worse...

Had to watch The Shining with my twelve year old after realizing during Doctor Sleep that she'd never seen it, and didn't know what was going on. She's thoroughly engrossed, when suddenly the Wednesday title card booms onto the screen, and she jumps. Hard. I had to hit pause til I stopped laughing. After the movie ends, she says it wasn't that scary. Me- Except for Wednesday! Her- Please stop.

The Shining is also one of my favorite horror films of all time, and that's thanks to the music, the cinematography, the pacing, the sets, the editing, and the acting, including that of Master of Awesome, Jack Nicholson. I'd totally move into an apartment building with a lounge that has a pool table. 13:37- Yeah, I know the feeling. 14:21- I can relate to Jack when it comes to focusing one one thing and having to be interrupted with another thing. 17:04- ...Until the Doctor Sleep film came around. 26:09- Proving that since their first year, The Razzies really suck. I take it that an episode of 9-1-1: Lone Star - Season 2 is gonna be like the movie Volcano, starring Tommy Lee Jones. I have a copy of the two-disc special edition DVD of The Shining, which also has the "Here's Johnny!" still-shot. NINJA AVENGERS?! GODDAMMIT, GODFREY HO!!! (After seeing the ending stinger) Ah, there it is. Thanks, Lloyd.

@cinemasnob Thank you so much for reviewing one of my favorite films and one of Kubrick's greatest works. At minute 15:06 you say you love that the design of the floors make no sense. Well, Kubrick and the set designers specifically built a set that couldn't actually exist in a reality. For example, where if you kept making all the turn you would run into a theoretical wall. So, they build many sets and shot through this impossible floor plan. The reason they gave is they wanted to subconsciously confuse, unsettle, and disorient the audience. The man truly loved his craft! And thank you again for your fun and exquisite content!

@@cineMADvocate You think I would have hated it because of source material deviations and becasue people originally didn't like Shining? I personally doubt that. I mean, I liked the first Silent Hill movie which was admittedly terrible and heavily deviated from the source. Hell, I love all the new Star Wars movies which the fandom seems to despise and heavily breaks from the original established canon. What I'm trying to say is, I give movies a chance and I try to judge them fairly beyond the initial reaction. That, and I'm generally more positive when critiquing. I prioritize looking for things to praise over things to criticize. I kind of lost my train of thought there, I only responded because yo assumed what I would or wouldn't like. But I hope at least something I said makes sense to you?
