In the third of three special Halloween episodes this year, we\u2019re looking back to our season on the awesome movie year of 1980 to talk about Stanley Kubrick\u2019s The Shining. Directed and co-written by Stanley Kubrick (based on the Stephen King novel) and starring Jack Nicholson, Shelley Duvall, Danny Lloyd and Scatman Crothers, The Shining opened to mixed response but has since become a horror classic.\n\nThe contemporary reviews quoted in this episode come from Janet Maslin in The New York Times (https://archive.nytimes.com/www.nytimes.com/library/film/052380kubrick-shining.html), Gary Arnold in the Washington Post (https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/lifestyle/1980/06/13/kubricks-12-million-shiner/1159d306-6c4e-4ba1-b0dd-3f39d3b947e1/), and Pauline Kael in The New Yorker.\n\nVisit https://www.awesomemovieyear.com for more info about the show.\n\nMake sure to like Awesome Movie Year on Facebook at\xa0http://www.facebook.com/awesomemovieyear and follow us on Twitter\xa0@Awesomemoviepod\n\nYou can find Jason online at http://goforjason.com/, on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/JHarrisComedy/, on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/jasonharriscomedy/ and on Twitter @JHarrisComedy\n\nYou can find Josh online at http://joshbellhateseverything.com/, on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/joshbellhateseverything/ and on Twitter @signalbleed\n\nYou can find our producer David Rosen\u2019s Piecing It Together Podcast at\xa0https://www.piecingpod.com, on Twitter at\xa0@piecingpod\xa0and the Popcorn & Puzzle Pieces Facebook Group at\xa0https://www.facebook.com/groups/piecingpod.\n\nYou can also follow us all on Letterboxd to keep up with what we've been watching at goforjason, signalbleed and bydavidrosen.\n\nSubscribe on Patreon to support the show and get access to exclusive content from Awesome Movie Year, plus fellow podcasts Piecing It Together and All Rice No Beans, and music by David Rosen: https://www.patreon.com/bydavidrosen\n\nAll of the music in the episode is by David Rosen.
