The Shining

Director
Stanley Kubrick
Certificate
15
Running Time
144 mins

Jack Nicholson and family check in to the creepy, isolated Overlook Hotel for the best-ever Stephen King adaptation. Needless to say, contrary old King hated Stanley Kubrick‘s masterpiece and preferred the crappy TV mini-series version, which was more faithful to his novel.

It’s back on screen as one of the classics reissued to get you back into the cinemagoing mood post-lockdown.
