The Shining is the most complex movie ever made, and Stanley Kubrick’s finest. Don’t believe it? Watch Room 237.
The Shining received a muted critical response on its release in 1980, and it has been pretty much ignored since then. But in the last few years in-depth reappraisals of it have appeared online, digging into its dense symbology.
