I wondered if my lone Lilith (Smoke and Mirrors whose twin, Trouble, I have never owned) might be a good twin to my new Eden (Not Pretending) who for now at least doesn't have a matching sister! I decided to dress them in matching dresses and once I did this they suddenly reminded me of the Grady twins in The Shining. So that meant I had to create a suitable diorama... Anyhow I think they look quite good together, what do you think?
I decided to make this shot visible so you could see the spider more clearly. Not sure what it was, and glad it never did anything so we had to find out!
The Roosevelt Hotel
Hollywood, CA
Every time I see this I think of those sisters in the Shining. This hotel is supposedly haunted by a few Hollywood stars of yesteryear, so I guess it makes sense.
My friend Nick as 8 of what I think are cinema's most recognizable male roles.
We have:
Johnny Depp's Hunter S. Thompson
Anthony Hopkins' Hannibal Lecter
Clint Eastwood's "Dirty" Harry Callahan
Al Pacino's Tony Montana
Nick himself
Malcolm McDowell's Alex
Jack Nicholson's Jack Torrance
Charlie Chaplin
Humphrey Bogart's Sam Spade
I noticed the background is a lot like the Glee advertisements. I guess my excitement for the season to resume is seeping into my work!
Saw these nearly faceless twin doll Christmas decorations at the Little Red Riding Hood Nursery store in Lubbock on the day after Thanksgiving. To me, these dolls are a little like the twins in the movie The Shining. Both sets of twins are certainly unusual.
So creepy! And often in character, asking people to 'play, for ever and ever and ever' in unison. Walking from hotel to hotel hand in hand and in step with each other.
Dieser Teppichboden kommt schon dem originalen im Overlook Hotel recht nahe. So wie es im Buch stand. Der rot-orange aus dem Film war ja Stanley Kubrick's Erfindung. Nach Mitternacht, wenn alles still ist, fangen die Schlingen an, sich zu bewegen, und wenn das Hotel dich nicht mag, liegen sie ganz schnell um deinen Hals...
Steven King's inspiration for "The Shining", the Stanley Hotel in Estes Park, CO. (the first horror movie I ever watched)
Our friends live only 30 minutes from here. When they mentioned that this hotel was the hotel in "The Shining"... I just had to go see it. Apparently, it was used in the TV mini-series made in 1997, but not much in the feature film.
It was also used in another favorite movie of mine... Dumb & Dumber. :D

Sketches and notes for shooting by Kubrick
From The Shining
Taken from Stanley Kubrick: The Exhibition (April to September 2019)
The exhibition tells the story of Stanley Kubrick the meticulous genius, exploring his unique command of the creative design process of film making, from storyteller to director to editor.

The Tornado Family invited me to contribute to their upcoming book, which consists of various illustrations of top 5 lists.
I was leery to just draw 5 celebrity crushes, and I wasn't sure I'd have the time to draw my 5 favorite movies, so I combined the two and went to town.
There's a little wonkiness in each rendition, but given that I executed them without doing a pencil sketch I'm fine with how they turned out.
I'm looking forward to seeing the end product when TTF releases it; I guess it'll be on their Etsy?

The Shining is a 1980 British-American psychological horror film produced and directed by Stanley Kubrick, co-written with novelist Diane Johnson, and starring Jack Nicholson, Shelley Duvall, Danny Lloyd, and Scatman Crothers. The film is based on Stephen King's 1977 novel of the same name, although the film and novel differ in significant ways.[4]
In the film, Jack Torrance, a writer and recovering alcoholic, takes a job as an off-season caretaker at the isolated Overlook Hotel. His young son possesses psychic abilities and is able to see things from the past and future, such as the ghosts who inhabit the hotel. Soon after settling in, the family is trapped in the hotel by a snowstorm, and Jack gradually becomes influenced by a supernatural presence, descends into madness, and ultimately attempts to murder his wife and son.
Unlike previous Kubrick films, which developed an audience gradually by building on word-of-mouth, The Shining was released as a mass-market film, opening at first in just two cities on Memorial Day, then nationwide a month later.[5] Although initial response to the film was mixed, later critical assessment was more favorable and it is now listed among the greatest horror movies, while some have viewed it as one of the greatest films of all time. Film director Martin Scorsese, writing in The Daily Beast, ranked it as one of the 11 scariest horror movies of all time.[6] Film critics, film students, and Kubrick's producer Jan Harlan, have remarked on the enormous influence the film has had on popular culture.[7][8][9]
The initial European release of The Shining was 25 minutes shorter than the American version, achieved by removing most of the scenes taking place outside the environs of the hotel.
