The Shining (1980)

What can I say about this film that hasn't already been said?
Its beautiful, haunting, scary, disturbing, fascinating, engrossing, heartfelt, heartbreaking, heart-racing, and hilarious. Kubrick is one of the greatest directors of all time, Jack Nicholson plays a lunatic better than almost anyone else, Shelley Duvall captures the strength and fear of a mother, and the hotel itself is as overbearing and powerful as any building in cinema history. The Shining is an absolute classic in every way.
