People seem to have trouble interpretting media sometimes. Just because there is a subtext that supports the theme doesn't mean the whole movie is secretly about that one thing. They forget to follow the metaphor through and to understand what it adds to the whole of the film. It's like a tapestry. One would be better served to ask "what does this story and the metaphor have in common?"

I think this film is so intensely picked apart because of its intentional ambiguity and Kubrick's style as a filmmaker generally. His films attempt to tap into something very subconscious in the viewer, and The Shining is VERY clearly meant to be open ended, full of mystery and up to interpretation. We fear most what we don't understand, and we tend to obsess over answers we know we'll never fully get. I'm positive Kubrick was very aware of this

That is exactly my thought on the Indian/Holocaust theory, as well as many others. The whole movie doesn't need to be the metaphor. Infact, it works a lot better if you consider the aspect of which attrocities "The eagle" (The US and Nazi Germany) commit, and how one is essentially a reincarnation of another attorcity. The perpetuating cycle of violence. Metaphors like this aren't meant to be "what the movie is about," but rather parallels to the movie. That's exactly what a metaphor or any other figure of speech does. If I say I am so hungry I could eat a horse, that doesn't mean I literally want to eat a horse, but rather conveys the idea of one situation onto another.

One of the differences between the story and the film is that Jack was never *not* a jerkwad in the film. He wore a flimsy mask of self-control with 'I'm a changed man!' sermon song and dance. He was this endless well of negative energy and would have eventually seriously harmed his family even without the Overlook's help. The forces of the Overlook did not corrupt him at all. He was already all the way there before he showed up. They just pulled his mask off is all.

You’re all forgetting something very important about this scene…not only is he wearing a sweater, but he’s also playing with toy cars on the floor pattern which almost exactly resembles the launch pads and the roads used to carry the rocket to the pad. You may be able to call one a coincidence, but both together in a Kubrick film cannot be coincidence. Also, Danny is standing in the middle of the “launch pad” and stands up which you then see the Apollo rocket “lifting off”. After this, he flies to room 247 in which the tag says No Room which can be re arranged to create “moon room”. Current science at the time claimed the moon was 247,000 miles from the earth, hence the 247. I know everything I just said is in the documentary, but idk how you all can talk about this like it’s a coincidence so I thought I’d remind you…

Jack, while an alcoholic, only rarely gives in to a violent impulse. In the backstory of the book, he accidentally dislocates Danny's shoulder spinning him around to spank his bottom, and beats up a student when he catches the student spray painting his car. In the movie, the dislocated shoulder becomes a broken arm and the student story disappears. Point is, none of it is gay.

Dick had some Shine, so he saw some creepy stuff, but with just him and a bunch of normal people around, it never got too crazy. I do believe that Jack has some Shine, thus the hotel can affect him/show him things as time goes on. Wendy only sees anything supernatural at the very end when the hotel is at its strongest.

There is another bear everyone misses...it's at 19:42 , as Danny is riding his Big Wheel, to his right as he goes down the hall, there is a bush in the planter that looks like a bear with its paws up. To the Indian theory: In "The Outlaw Josey Wales" soldiers wore red pants and were called 'red legs', Ullman is wearing red pants. Jack is also wearing a 'red coat'. The Danny opening the pantry door makes sense because not only is Danny seeing blood, he's writing Redrum, but the girls were also killed and they tell Danny he'll be with them forever. They may have put Danny in a trance to unlock the door. Jack may not be in his full killing rage yet with Danny running off after unlocking the door (another maze foreshadowing). The Kubrick doesn't make mistakes idea is in a sense is true, he did make mistakes (helicopter shadow in the opening scene) but to think directors do not intentionally dress sets or remove items is dismissed to fit your opinion and video. Kubrick intentionally made sets for his travel reasons but also for the control he liked to have which meant a greater control of his actors, crew, everyone. Nolan for example is VERY deliberate with his sets. Chairs disappearing, the giant maze not being seen in the helicopter shot in the beginning, bear rugs, cartoon stickers are very deliberate. Wendy herself is dressed like the Goofy toy in Danny's room, guess that's another coincidence? I think not. Why does the typewriter change colors in the movie if it wasn't intentional, the paper changing colors? What about the cigarette in the ashtray? Wendy smokes, we don't ever see Jack smoking. The Marlboro pack is on the left side of the typewriter and the cigarette is as if someone was where Wendy was when Jack reprimanded her and has a very long ash as Wendy had in the therapist scene (a famous meme was made about that extra long ash). The twins were actually visiting the set and sparked Kubrick's interest in that idea so once again, thoughts about set or around the set can in a masters hand...become iconic. The Playgirl and bear imagery go hand in hand with incest as do bears in the undertones of child molestation/abduction in "Eyes Wide Shut". The blood from the elevator scene was shot in miniature and is done so well that everyone believes it is scaled to actual size. What people see is the reflections from the lights and the sets reflections that make for a weird looking figure as the blood pours out.

a note on the Grady's wife theory. I am old enough to remember the trailers for The Shining. The entire trailer was just the elevator doors and the blood. I must have seen that in theaters on the big screen at least 15 times. At some point I noticed the "object" falling out of the elevator as the blood surges out, and then on the next viewing, I realized it was a big clear plastic bag which the blood had been in. If you look closely you can see the blood is actually coming out of it. In order to film the shot, the blood had to be in something until the doors opened, and that was it. So Grady's wife is actually just the container the blood was in.

Well, if you were a boomer and you spent your life in the occult section of the library, you would know that there was a Research Society in England that studied ghosts and they found that ghosts did not cause physical harm to people. And Hallorann tells Danny that the ghosts are just like pictures in a book, which means the same thing, they can't hurt you. So, that, to me, leaves it open that maybe Danny did, in fact, do it to himself or maybe there is someone else in the hotel. And maybe Danny opened the door (as suggested in Room 237).

2:13 This is very subjective. Especially adding in that caveat, Canon to "Kubrick's" the shining, and especially when referring to what the story meant. Specifically referring to the artist who adapted a story into a VERY different story, one that he never elaborated on, you cannot say doctor sleep is definitively Canon to Kubrick vision, as Kubrick is dead, and nobody working on that movie could possibly know what Kubrick actually intended for the story. Doctor sleep isn't a Kubrick story or a king story. It's a Flanagan story, attempting to tie the universe of Kubricks the shining with kings original novel, follwing kings novel and sequel more tightly, which was never Kubrick's original intention. It would be one thing if we were talking about a larger franchise like the mcu, one that's a grand story with many artists and only a few long running story's without much mystery or meaning, but when discussing the meaning of a singular arthouse film from 1980, calling a sequel without any of the original work's creators on board with a completely different intent almost 40 years later "canon", and suggesting that it answers anything at all, is completely disingenuous

I don't think you can call it disingenuous at all, as creating a bridge between the movie and the book while also serving as a sequel to the movie is Doctor Sleep's intended purpose. Like, that's what it is. Maybe creating a sequel years after the original creator has passed away, without knowing their full intentions for their creation, could be considered bad taste, and I'm not arguing that it isn't. But if we're talking about The Shining, a property that Stephen King created, that Kubrick then morphed into his own vision without King's blessings/input, I would say it's fair game. I guess I'd put it like this: Terminators 3 through Genysis were Canon until James Cameron said they weren't. Kubrick isn't going to get that chance, so it's up to the viewer whether or not they think it counts. And I don't think there's anything disingenuous about that

Both movies go off of the source material, both sequels answer questions. Does it answer all of Kubrick's creative mysteries? No. Does it answer questions from his movie? Yes.

Take another look at the Jack's Novel theory. It explains why Kubrick purposely put continuity errors - because sometimes we're watching real life Jack and sometimes we're watching his character in his book. The real Jack gets inspiration from the hotel and it's history for the character Jack and all the ghosts. It also explains the discrepancy in Grady's first name. Dismissing the theory in 30 seconds and treating it as more out there than Kubrick in the clouds is ridiculous. it's a great video in that it brings together some of the wildest theories, but as for the Jack's Novel theory, you're going to want to revise it.

The Jack's Novel theory also explains how Jack got out of the storeroom. It's not far-fetched as it is integral to the structure of the movie. Jack is there to write a novel and that's exactly what he does. Kubrick blended it well enough that Rob Ager didn't even mention the theory in his examination of how Jack escaped the storeroom. The answer is simple. The ghost let him out. The ghosts were real in his novel. The rest of the explanations he presented were grasping at straws from someone who completely whiffed on the real answer. We both know the quality of work that Rob Ager does, so you know you're in good company. But take another look and it will change your mind pretty quickly.

I think you have it all wrong regarding Hallorann. He has the shining but it's low power with him. He can see things in the hotel but that's it. How do we know this? For one, Danny reminds himself that Hallorann told him that things in the hotel are "not real, like pictures in a book". Also, Grady tells Jack that his son is attempting to bring an outside party into it. Danny used his power to summon Hallorann. Hallorann did not have the power to ask Danny if he's alright. Finally, when Hallorann arrives at the hotel his power doesn't help him at all. He's just not anywhere near as powerful as Danny. If you see the shining ability as a power source for the ghosts, then you will understand why the level of shining ability a person has makes all the difference. So not only would the hotel not want to absorb Hallorann in particular, it wouldn't have the power to do so since Hallorann's shining is so weak.

The number 42 is unlikely an accident. Not counting the claim there are 42 cars in the parking lot, the weakest element of the theory, 42 still comes up multiple times: The Summer of 42, Danny's shirt, news anchors on TV talking about "$42 million," Room 237 (2 x 3 x 7 = 42). Why 42? A reasonable explanation I've seen is that Kubrick was an avid listener to BBC Radio 4, which debuted Douglas Adams' Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy in 1978. According to the story, which aired in March 1978 on the episode titled "Fit the Fourth," the answer to the Ultimate question is 42. It's a cinematic non sequitur based on a literary one? It creates mystery and invites interpretations. But ultimately, it's a trick of movie magic.

One thing I have not seen anyone mention is the fact that Kubrick did not deem the 144min (one in video) Shining as the definitive version, rather the 119min one; which removes a handful of the scenes that back up these theories. Of course, most of these theories aren’t true at all, but knowing that this wasn’t really the “official” version just kinda backs that up.

I think stuff like minor continuity errors actually should be considered, because Kubrick was a notorious perfectionist and has an insane attention to detail. You even brought that up in the video, with the impossible office window at the beginning of the movie. Not gonna say Kubrick *never* makes mistakes, but considering how attentive he is to details like that, I don’t think it’s out of the realm of possibility that all those little background elements and continuity errors were intentional for one reason or another.

The homosexual theory could explain why the summer caretaker is staring at Jack with such disdain. There really is no reason for Jack to be looking at a Playgirl magazine, even if for some reason it was just left in the lobby, it would have been uncommon at the time for someone to be openly homosexual. Partaking in light pornography in public is not socially acceptable, whether hetero or homo, and would be a very odd thing to do at a job interview. There probably is something to be read into with that choice of prop. 21:15 The spirits also physically interact with Danny when he gets bruised in room 237.

Waaaaaiiitt. The shining was not a flop. It was a success at the box office, it was no blockbuster but it turned a decent profit of about $30 million (about $120 million today). That’s not a failure! It was not a critical success, but no horror movie was a critical success (aside from MAYBE the exorcist) until Silence of the Lambs in 1991. And, one could argue that Silence is a thriller more than a horror. The Shining was huge in horror movie circles. Stanley Kubrick enjoyed , and definitely lived to see, tremendous success, particularly with 2001 Space Odyssey.

@busybeebusybee4701

I love the Kubrik and King versions of the Shining, as well as the original book. imo Kubrik's hedgemaze is a reference to the many references to Alice in Wonderland in the novel, and I think an argument could be made that the Playgirl is a reference to the white rabbit (could Jack be the White Rabbit, or the Mad Hatter? Cheshire grin?). The mallet in King's tv version and novel was a reference to the queen playing croquet in Wonderland, I think a really interesting theory could be made drawing parallels between Wonderland and the Overlook; of course the outfits on the twins are replications of Alice's classic white and blue dress, and the girls being twins rather than sisters of different ages (as in the novel) could be Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum. So many references to time that I think could form an interesting theory. Also, in the deleted scenes from King's TV version, Grady's hand is shown to be the one who opened the door for Jake. I know Kubrik wasn't faithful to the novel and the TV version came later, but I think Grady is the most likely to have opened the door. Great video, thanks for sharing.

The Overlook is one of Stephen King’s “inanimate objects can be sentient and also feed/prey on humans” creations inside his “universe” he has created. The hotel is a “psychic vampire” in the same way that Rose the hat and the others are in Dr Sleep. I believe the anomalies such as the window in the office were meant to be visual representations of the hotel’s ability to manipulate human perception of reality (like hypnosis) while inside the walls of the Overlook. I think the whole shining scenario was to extract as much fear out of Danny as possible since it is established that there are levels of power among shiners. Danny’s power level mixed with his young age made him vulnerable to predation.

Dr. Sleep has absolutely nothing to do with Kubrick's The Shining. It's based on a book written by Stephen King many years after Kubrick made The Shining, and many years after Kubrick died, that Kubrick was totally uninvolved in and didn't ever even know existed. It could almost even be said that Kubrick's version of The Shining doesn't really have that much in common with King's version of The Shining, as Kubrick was a much different type of person than King, and took the basic concept of the book and made it into his own personal vision instead. Kubrick in my opinion is also a much greater artist than Stephen King, and a movie like Dr. Sleep is below him and his artistic sensibilities, significantly. So to say that it is canon to Kubrick's The Shining, is just a totally ridiculous statement on multiple levels.

I agree, it's another "boner" this guy pulled.

You really should consider a different line of analysis other than film if you’re going to claim that doctor sleep is canon to Kubricks shining. You may be able to say that the director of doctor sleep and Stephen king tried to make their film canon to the shining, but because NO ONE other than Stanley Kubrick really knows the true meaning behind all of the symbolism in the film, we cannot say that it is canon. No matter how much you like doctor sleep and how much you may think perfectly fits together between the two films, it will never be canon because the one thing we do all know is that Kubrick didn’t direct Stephen Kings The Shining, he just used the book as a skeleton to structure a deeper story he wanted to tell. The very fact that doctor sleep has Stephen kings name on it literally makes it non canon alone. But hey, keep on thinking your opinions are facts and keep telling them to idiots online so we have more idiots walking around not knowing anything about anything and claiming things they really want to be true as facts.

Dude, in the opening moments, you declare that The Shining is “shrouded in ambiguity.” in point of fact, it is not shrouded in ambiguity at all. I repeat, there’s nothing ambiguous about this movie whatsoever. I know that people often have difficulty understanding this movie, but that doesn’t mean it’s ambiguous. The Shining is a film about a man who doesn’t like his family, resents them, and together they all move into a haunted hotel that manipulates him into becoming an even worse, more violent version of himself. The entire movie is about and an allegory for domestic violence. Jack is definitely a bad person. The hotel is definitely haunted. The Shining is a real ability. Wendy and Danny escape. Jack dies. The *only* ambiguity in the entire movie is “What, exactly, does Jack being in the 1921 NYE photo mean?” Literally every other theory about this movie is because people just can’t or don’t see what it’s about. You can dissect every little detail in the movie all you want, but it was made at a time when VCRs and DVDs and Blu Rays were a distant dream. The Shining was *never* meant to be looked at in the way internet film weirdos look at it. Calumet is in the pantry because the British set designer did research and found that it was a popular brand in the US at the time, the carpet does not represent Pad 39a, and room 237 was changed to 237 *only* because the real hotel asked it not be 217. Oh, and the continuity errors are just a mixture of Kubrick being a perfectionist but not perfect and the sets burning down and the rebuild being “imperfect.” The movie is very clear if you pay attention, and the theories are all wrong. All of them.

About the hotel preying upon people with shining ability and dick halloran thing, the only feasible explanation I could make is maybe the hotel needs people with strong shining abilities but it needs them to be children or something so as to fight them easily. Because we know that dick's reason to be there is to work by which we can make out that his first appearance in the hotel is when he is an adult, all the other people solely in this movie with the ability are danny, and maybe the twins who are all children. also about the grady's wife in the elevator thing, first you can't make out any significant signifier to make out a specific person or something. So going straight ahead to grady's wife doesn't sit with me well. also if you look at this the way you look at the continuity errors throughout the movie, then it's also possible to assume that this was just something kubrick couldn't prevent while shooting this blood scene due to some kind of production difficulties, maybe the elevator couldn't be opened remotely so someone had to be there or anything but even if it was intentional, grady's wife is a long stretch, maybe that person was one of the natives buried there?

The theory that Wendy is one that is crazy actually holds water in major ways. Yes every film maker does make some mistakes and there are a few continuity errors in every film... But Kubrick was perhaps the most NOTORIOUS director for literally placing nearly every item in each shot... And he was not the type to get a few takes that most would consider "good enough" and move on. In practically every scene in The Shining that this theory is based on there are an abundance of mistakes and errors... Leading to the belief that, because Wendy, is the crazy one her reality is skewed. I did not belt this when I first heard about it, but after seeing a long KZitem video on this subject and rewatching the film several times, a long with being a huge Kubrick fan, it makes sense and adds so much the movie. And this also makes more sense of how Kubrick treated Shelley Duvall during the shoot, she says she quite literally was going insane and that was exactly what he was trying to do, to make her seemed unhinged. I suggest everyone watch the KZitem video (if you search it's pretty easy to find) and read up on Kubrick and his filming styles and the stories about all the ways he'd add to each film he directed, then obviously make your own mind up. It's fun.
