The Shining

Everyone hates winter, or at least everyone who has good opinions on seasons dislikes winter. And every writer has some amount of self-loathing going, otherwise they would pursue a more lucrative career such as working in masonry. And even further, it seems like everyone in the 80s hated their family, so when Jack Torrence took a job being stuck in a hotel with his family for the winter to attempt to write the next great American novel, maybe he should have known it would not go well for him. But it did go well for the camera crew documenting this process, they got to make one of the greatest horror movies of all time. And now the brothers Magellan are going to tackle this film for your listening pleasure, diving into both the technical elements and the deep thematic material that Stanley Kubrick brings to this classic adaptation of Stephen King’s novel. So, grab your fire ax, big wheel tricycle, and creepy twin sister and let’s get started!! Here’s the Magellans!!!!!!
