Well that was disturbing! For the first time Achara and Steph watch Stanley Kubrick's The Shining (1980) starring Jack Nicholson (Batman (1989) & The Departed) as the terrifying main antagonist, Jack Torrance, along with Shelley Duval (Popeye (1980) & 3 Women) who plays as his disturbed wife, Wendy.
This movie also stars Danny Lloyd (Doctor Sleep) as Danny & Scatman Crothers (One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest) as Dick Hallorann.

Here's some trivia that always confuses people. On the request of the parents of Danny Lloyd (Danny), they didn't want Danny to be aware that he was in a horror movie. So they somehow filmed the whole movie without Danny realizing he was in a horror movie instead of a family drama. Usually when Wendy is carrying Danny it was a doll hence why he was "limp". Danny didn't watch this movie until he was a teenager because his parents were protecting him from it.

@sabin97 Год назад

Yes, that why it was changed to the Overlook in Colorado. Originally, it was set in a Japanese style shoji, with paper wall dividers & doors, but Nicholson just tore through it too easily. Little known fact, The Karate Kid got his name from this early version of the script (Daniel-San [Danny])

Danny Lloyd, the actor playing Danny, improvised the action of wagging his finger whenever speaking as "Tony" during his audition. It was not written down as part of his character in the screenplay. Stanley Kubrick kept the finger wag as part of the character when they started filming. Imagine impressing one of the greatest directors ever enough with an improv as a child.

@TTM9691 Год назад

That's what directing is, though. Film is collaborative art and the director picks and chooses what stays in and what doesn't. The director obviously gets ideas of his own, but it's recognizing everyone else's great ideas that are going to work and knowing which ones to discard, that's a major percentage of the director's job right there. So definitely kudos to Danny Lloyd, he WAS great. But kudos to Kubrick (and Leon Vitali, who worked one-on-one with Danny) for knowing to cast him, and how they got that amazing performance. The scene in the hall, when he recovers from seeing the twins, where he goes from terrified to Tony back to terrified is outstanding screen acting......for ANY actor, of any age!

-The opening helicopter scene...this was shot before gyroscopic cameras too. This was never seen before. -The opening is also Jack driving to the Overlook, to show how isolated the hotel really is. -A lot of the shots in the film used a Steadicam. This was the first film to really use it to its potential, and this was down to Kubrick. The inventor (and operator here) Garrett Brown, saw it as a way to shoot chase scenes and maybe for some special effects. Kubrick instead used it to perform tracking shots that were up till then impossible (like Halloran showing Wendy and Danny around the kitchen). One of the reasons for there being so many takes in this film was Kubrick and Brown figuring out how to use the Steadicam...Brown says that usually the first 10-15 takes were for him. They were developing the methods that would be used afterwards. -Danny Lloyd was 5 years old when shooting started. He had never acted before. -The interior and exterior shots of the hotel (except for establishing shots) were filmed at EMI Elstree Studios in Borehamwood, Hertfordshire, England. The 'snow' was a combination of Styrofoam, salt, and 'smoke' from smoke machines. -And I apologize to the 'believers' out there, but contrary to popular belief (or really, urban legend) Kubrick did not 'abuse' Shelley Duvall. This urban legend grew out of misunderstanding (sometimes on purpose) the 'behind the scenes' video shot during filming by Kubrick's daughter Vivian. -One of the reasons why the actors look odd in the film is Kubrick used a wide-angle lens for most of the shooting. -Kubrick also used optical illusions, moving pieces of the set, etc. to subconsciously disorient and creep out the audience. In your video there are two scenes with Danny, and mounted on the wall menacingly over his head are knives. -Something to pay attention to...how often the characters lie to each other. -Something else to watch for is how often mirrors play a role in a scene. Like whenever Jack is talking to a ghost...he is looking at himself in a mirror. -Danny using his finger to represent Tony was Danny Lloyd's idea. -Of the four main actors, Jack Nicholson, Shelley Duvall, Danny Lloyd, and Scatman Crothers, not one of them were trained actors. All four were 'naturals'. -Wendy tells the doctor Jack has been sober for 5 months...she is lying. Later in the film Jack also tells the ghost/bartender that he's been sober for 'five miserable months'. But Jack says that about two months later than Wendy does. I doubt Jack would minimize how long he's been sober, so really when Wendy has that conversation, Jack has been sober for maybe three months. -What happened? The film was constructed in a way that the viewer ultimately determines what the story was and what happened. Different facts are stated or alluded to. It's up to each person to determine for themselves what items are important, and how to connect them into a narrative. -Read the book? It won't help. If anything, it will lead you astray in figuring out what happened in the film...Kubrick took the basic ideas and created something of his own. Some of the sillier parts and ideas he jettisoned, and a lot of the more interesting bits were his creation.

@sdholmess Год назад

Smart of you to notice the steadiness of the camera during Danny's Big Wheel ride. I noticed something very different too when I saw the movie premiere in the theater. The Shining was the first movie to utilize the Steadicam. It uses a gyroscope to keep the image still. It's inventor Garrett Brown won an Oscar for its invention.

@thetechsite9619 11 месяцев назад

This was the fourth movie the steadycam was used for. One of the previous ones was Rocky.

@Sandy-dd4le 10 месяцев назад

The interesting thing about the Steadicam being used on The Shining is that it's barely used for what it was designed for. Most of the movie is filmed in Steadicam, but much of the time the operator is acting like a tripod camera would. There's only a handful of scenes where it's used for what it was designed for...following Wendy to dreaming Jack, leading Danny out of the maze etc. There's a version of the film on dvd that has the Steadicam inventor, and cameraman for most of the film doing commentary, he supplies a lot of detail on it, how he adapted it to make it work like a tripod camera would.

@Charles_Gaba Год назад

As a testament to Kubrick’s insane attention to detail, he had his secretary, a woman named Margaret Warrington, manually type out *500 pages* of “All work and no play makes Jack a full boy” using a different style/layout on every page. He then had her do the same thing in several other languages for the foreign releases.

As the hotel is built on an ancient Native American burial ground, whose soil is sour and evil, the original caretaker of the Overlook was possessed by an evil spirit back when the hotel was first completed. Every since then, the deeds of the damned soul is repeated by whomever else the evil spirit possesses (as in Delbert Grady, and Jack Torrence). It's not like the actual Jack was physically there in 1921, but because he was being possessed, he felt a familiarity with the place that even he couldn't quite understand. In fact, the hotel already had a hold of him since when he went there for his job interview. That's also why he was writing, "All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy", from day one. He was already slipping into insanity because of the demonic influence. The original Stephen King novel was released minus both a prologue and an epilogue that King had written, but decided not to publish with the book's original printing. They were later released by Whispers Magazine, and TV Guide Magazine to promote a TV miniseries on The Shining that was aired in 1997. The prologue was titled, "Before the Play", and the epilogue, "After the Play". They explain a lot about what many had questions about concerning the story of the novel, and also the film. The hotel was obviously haunted, and inundated by displaced spirits of people who died there tragically during the time of the hotels opening to the then present time (1980). The director, Stanley Kubrick, hid in place sight many symbolic things in certain shots in the movie. For example, the "Calumet" can of food in the pantry relates to tragic injustice that happen to a particular Native American tribe (the details of which are too extensive to discuss here, but look it up, it's quite interesting).

@kentclark6420 7 месяцев назад

There are so many ways to interpret this film, and I agree with some of your observations, but if Jack wasn't physically there in 1921, how do you explain the photo at the end? And Jack said he felt as though it was all a deja vu. I think in the ballroom scene that Jack was flashing to a past life when he was the caretaker, (Delbert said Jack was always the caretaker there). I think he meant that the evil spirit that had consumed Jack had always been the caretaker, because other than in 1921, and in the present time, Jack was working or living somewhere else. Or in between lifetimes. And Delbert said he'd always been there. So another evil Indian spirit was representing Charles Grady in that restroom scene. Actually, Charles and Delbert. That's why Jack mistook Delbert for Charles Grady. Charles was the one who killed his wife and kids in 1970.

Kubrick initially had one final scene which he decided to delete. It would have changed the story somewhat. It's Wendy and Danny recovering at a hospital after their ordeal, with a visit from Ullman. He tells them that they investigated the hotel and didn't find anything, not even the dead bodies. He suggests the extreme weather might have caused them to imagine things. Since Wendy and Danny have nowhere else to go, Ullman insists that they come live with him for a spell. He's got extra rooms and a maid in LA. On the way out, Ullman tosses Danny the ball from room 237. Danny: 😨

My personal opinion is that Kubrick and his co-writer got carried away, and it was a good thing the scene got cut.

Trivia for the day: That's wasn't snow. It was all salt. The hotel front was on a Soundstage and they brought in truckloads of salt. And notice the opening helicopter shot of the Overlook....there is no maze anywhere. You should watch some of the many documentaries about the odd things about this movie. You don't know how psychologically disturbing it is until you see how Kubrick plays with your mind with impossible architecture etc. Very subtle but disturbing.

@fredfinks Год назад

Yes, thats what makes the horror of the overlook so much more depressing. Colorado county decided to keep the pass road open with tons of salt air dropped, but the plane went off course and it was deposited over the hotel and grounds. If it wasnt for the dodgy pilot, the roads would have been open and Jack's cabin fever cut short by partying skiers on holiday.

So older Danny, figured out a way to use his shine ability to travel back in time to warn his younger self about the hotel.

@karlmortoniv2951 Год назад

This seems to be a thing that sort of maybe possibly happens somehow. There are loads of people who say that they have memories of being in awful situations years ago and they encounter and are spoken to by an adult who looks vaguely familiar, and the adult chills them out or encourages them or assures them that while the situation might seem awful they WILL live through it. Then years later when they grow up, they recognized themselves in the mirror as the person that was helpful when they needed it most. One scientist who endured awful abuse as a little girl swears that she remembers a woman who she now recognizes as herself as someone who appeared to her and helped her get through it. She talks about this phenomena as 'time travel therapy,' the idea being that when she was a healthy adult and able to spare the effort she kind of sent help back through time to when she needed it as a little girl. It's not a stretch if one considers all the theories about how spacetime is not actually a linear thing as we experience it - a big if, but that idea is being batted around. She says she has no idea if any actual mental time travel is happening or if she as an adult is rewriting her memories as a coping mechanism so that rather than remembering being by herself and coping with the abuse all alone her brain healed the trauma by reimagining a friend who supported and helped her out. At the end of the day even if it's the latter if it helps a person heal, what difference does it make? Fun to think about , anyway.

@TTM9691 Год назад

All of Kubrick's films are spectacular in their visual design, he started as a photographer, one of the only directors to come from a photographer background. And it makes all the difference. He makes the hotel a character. In fact, it's told from the hotel's point-of-view, in my opinion! That shot that Achara talks about is a trademark Kubrick shot, definitely used in the equally dazzling (and equally disturbing) "A Clockwork Orange", and the one that came afterwards (and right before The Shining) "Barry Lyndon" (an 18th century period piece that is like watching moving paintings. GORGEOUS). PS: A few weeks after finishing this movie, Jack Nicholson filmed his scenes in "Reds", in which he gives a completely naturalistic, understated, romantic performance as Eugene O'Neill. After that, he won the Oscar for "Terms Of Endearment", an adorable, beautiful, hilarious, romantic performance in what would be described as the ultimate "chick flick" (it stars Shirley MacLaine and Debra Winger). One of his most classic movies is "Chinatown", he's the hero of the movie. Ditto "The Last Detail" Then you've got multi-dimensional stuff like "Carnal Knowledge" or "One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest", or "Easy Rider", or "Five Easy Pieces" . In later years, "About Schmidt" he plays a humble shlep widower, "Something's Gotta Give" is a great rom-com with Diane Keaton. Jack is WAY more than just "crazy Jack", he's got a DEEP back catalog, going back to "East Rider".

@@SWLinPHX plus King only disproves of the movie because the character of Jack Torrence was based off of how King saw himself. Kubrick eliminated Jack's redemption arc of the story and committed him to being a monster at the end. Now this makes for a much more compelling horror movie, but it does require the sacrifice of a happier ending (where jack dies a good man). Still I'd probably dislike the movie too if my favorite character was changed from being a tragic hero to a straight villain. But eliminate that one personal aspect from the situation and who knows, King might have actually loved the movie.

The opening helicopter footage was shot on Going-to-the-Sun Road and it's in Montana, not Colorado. The real hotel used for exteriors is the Timberline Lodge and it's in Oregon. The interiors are modeled on The Awahanee Lodge in Southern California. The real hotel that inspired King to write the book is The Stanley Hotel and it IS in Colorado and it IS allegedly haunted. The sequel is DOCTOR SLEEP and it has a Director's Cut. Absolutely must-see. There was originally a 2-minute coda that showed Wendy in the hospital getting a visit from Mr. Ullmann. They talk about what happened (apparently the maze has been searched but Jack's body hasn't been found) and then when he leaves, he tosses Danny the same tennis ball that rolled at him earlier in the film. Kubrick recalled all the prints about a month after release and cut them all off and destroyed them. To date, there's no known surviving footage, but people are still on the lookout for it.

One of the many, many theories about _The Shining_ is that Jack also has the Shine, but as Halloran suggested, he was one of those who didn't know what he had. He also had vivid "dreams" (like the nightmare he had) that so disturbed him that he began drinking as self-medication. This made him susceptible to the encroachment by the Overlook and its denizens.

@marvelstarwarsgeek1511 Год назад

Great reaction as always ladies , this has got to be one of if not the scariest film I have ever watched from the opening panning shot across the landscape to the super creepy music playing this really sets the tone for the rest of the movie ( and like you pointed out no drones back then so the opening shot would have been from a helicopter ) everything in The Shining works so well and adds to the growing sense of unease and dread love the scenes of Danny riding his bike around the hotel especially the sound going from carpet to wood floor . All the performances are fantastic Jack does unhinged so so well ( you can see why he got the Joker role ) Shelley Duvall gives a great performance and does scared so well , Danny Lloyd is great , his Tony voice is so unsettling and I have to give a special mention to the late Philip Stone as Grady who is incredibly creepy , Mr Stone lived near me when I lived in London years ago and was a local celebrity having had a lot of supporting roles over the years as the British Captain Blumburtt in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom , he was the Priest that marries Ming and Dale in 1980s Flash Gordon and he was also the incredibly creepy Mr Finch in a touch of Frost in 1997 . Apparently Stephen King does not like this adaptation of his work but The Shining along with Misery has to be one of the best adaptations made . Everyone knows the image of Jack's face saying " here's Johnny " but in the context of the film it is so scary ,by the way the axe he uses was not a prop it was a real fireman's axe . My take on the end is that all the ghosts of the Overlooks victims are coming out and that Jack being in the photo shows the Hotel has claimed another soul , like you said Achara the Hotel is almost alive which is another popular theory . There is a sequel called Dr Sleep which stars Ewan McGregor as a grown up Danny who is still troubled by visions , I have not seen it but can't imagine it will be anywhere near as effective as The Shining .

Achara, since you said you were fascinated by all of the supernatural "shine" talk, then Doctor Sleep is an absolute must watch for you and Steph. Because the film is essentially a deep dive into that aspect of this film. But it must be the director's cut, which is far better than the theatrical cut. For what it's worth, I'm one who tends to dislike remakes and sequels to classic horror films, but Doctor Sleep blew me away. I went in expecting to not like it, and ended up enjoying it as much as I did The Shining, which I'm a hardcore fan of. As added incentive, it's directed by Mike Flanagan, who made The Haunting of Hill House/Bly Manor and Midnight Mass.

@TheJuRK Год назад

The hotel that inspired Stephen King to write The Shining was the Stanley Hotel in Estes Park, Colorado. (It was used for the Overlook Hotel in the 1997 TV mini-series). But nothing in the Kubrick film was shot in Colorado. Nearly the entire film was shot on soundstages and facades in England! The Overlook exterior was modeled after the Timberline Lodge on Mount Hood in Oregon (about 52 miles from the Portland airport!). Some shots were filmed at the Timberline but none of the actors were ever there! The opening shots of Jack driving to the hotel were shot in Montana. The mountain roads there were far more beautiful and photogenic than anything they found in Colorado. So...none of this movie was done in Colorado!

@stevetheduck1425 Год назад

The shots of the real Timberline Lodge in Colorado, that are in 'The Shining', plus all the opening sequence of Jack driving to the Overlook, and several shots of the Overlook showing winter approaching are all, by necessity of the Timberline's location, shot in Colorado. The exterior of the Overlook, modelled on the Timberline lodge, were shot outdoors in England, using a location that has been seen in many movies. In 'Doctor Who: Dalek Invasion of Earth, 2150 AD', the 'mine' set has a slope in the right-hand background that leads up to the edge of a reservoir, creating a horizon line, this is the same slope that Wendy and Danny travel up when escaping the Overlook at the end of The Shining. This film studio also has a London street set that has appeared in many movies and TV series (the Sherlock Holmes series starring Jeremy Brett, for example), and this area was also re-dressed as Gotham City for the first Tim Burton Batman film.

To see what a Steadicam does, see 'Aliens' the two soldiers who carry the larger guns strapped to their bodies, are using guns mounted on a Steadicam harness. This was seriously studied as a way to make machine gunners more accurate, but no-one wanted to stand up on a battlefield in a firefight, making this idea effectively useless.
