Episode description

Time to take a look at a little film about a family going slowly insane together: The Shining from 1980, directed by Stanley Kubrick, based on the book by Stephen King. Hated and revered, analyzed by many who shouldn't, but nevertheless the work of a master.

On this track we cover:
  • Kubrick's visuals and narrative style
  • The production and Kubrick's work methods
  • The novel vs. the film
  • Shelley Duvall's teeth
  • The insane conspiracy theories
