Stanley Kubrick’s visually stunning interpretation of Stephen King’s novel.  I guess the two follow different plot trajectories.  I never sat through the entire King tome.  A cursed family moves into a rambling hotel to act as its caretakers during the winter.  Seems the Overlook Hotel has some dark secrets of its own that start to manifest during the family’s stay.  Expect a LOT of unsettling, frightening moments.   The movie takes on the tone of a nightmare.  Events, circumstances keep building up and piling on the dread factor.  Famous Nicholson over the top performance.  Amazing use of Stedicam during filming to move things along nicely.
