Rico, et al,Apparantly, there are many fans of The Shining here at the asylum...so i guess, if everybody tells me I'm sick, I'd better go lay down.
I've been thinking about the film, and there are two scenes that really stand out to me:
The "baseball bat" scene ("give me the bat, Wendy")...Jack is great here, and so is the camera work and direction...Shelly, as usual, is not up to the rest of the company.
The "bar" scene ("Lloyd, I'm the kind of man that likes to know who's buying his drinks)...I can't think of the name offhand of the veteran character actor playing the bartender, but he and Jack are really working it here.
Overated scene..."Here's Johnny." (improvised, I believe, by Jack). Funny at the time, but hasn't worn well imo.
Thanks for the tip on the lecherous manager of the Overlook...now I MIGHT have to watch it again.
Regards,
Gary
He is also one of the three men condemmed to die in Kubrick's "Paths of Glory" So cool that he's in "The Shining" as a ghost from the Overlook's past.
