In the third of three special Halloween episodes this year, we’re looking back to our season on the awesome movie year of 1980 to talk about Stanley Kubrick’s 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. The 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.
