Shining Ability-Jack Torrence/Danny

I never red the book. I saw the Movie a couple of times and need your confirmation. It is obvious that Danny has the "Shining". Jack Torrance on the other hand must have it too. It is interesting how his shining is more attracted to the dark side. Is it officially confirmed or mentioned that he (Jack Torrance) has the shining as well? I would be a disappointment if not...

2001 Soundtrack cool "bonus"

A few weeks ago, there was a thread about the gatefold cover version of the 2001 Soundtrack vinyl, so being highly suggestible, I ordered my very own from Discogs for the princely sum of $10.74 shipped. Showed up a few days ago, and it's in very good shape, but had a little extra bonus of the original paper record sleeve covered with cool graphics of the MGM roster from the time. Roy Orbison, Eric Burden and the Animals, Hank Williams Sr & Jr, Sam the Sham, Herman's Hermits and more! Nice treat for an old school graphics nerd like me!

Clockwork orange

I’ve heard there’s an uncut version of a clockwork orange… was wondering where I can find that? If I need to get it on dvd, what am I looking for to make sure it’s the uncensored version? Thank you!

Does anyone have any theories on the significance of Alice’s dream with the Naval Officer?

I just finished watching Eyes Wide Shut for the first time and now I’m in the rabbit hole of YouTube videos. I’ve seen every area fleshed out except Alice’s specific dreams of the man she met on the trip. Would this at all be part of the bigger picture at the party?

Taschen Shining Book PreOrders Cancelled on Amazon.ca

I just got an email that my preorder for the Taschen Shining Book that I placed on August 20th on Canadian Amazon has been cancelled due to lack of availability. I feel like I'm in that episode of Seinfeld where the rental car company doesn't have the car he reserved. The key part of the pre-order is the having it available part. That's kinda THE point of the pre-order. Luckily I'm going to be in the states for Christmas so I've just re-preordered from the US Amazon. Hopefully those are still fulfilled. But looks like you may be out of luck here fellow Canadian Shiners.

The paintings on the wall were moved up.

I hope i'm not going insane but i noticed an outline below those paintings in the back, Knowing that this is a real place and not a studio, I'm assuming that the outline shows the original position of the paintings. So i'm also assuming that Stanley intentionally moved them up, Why would he do that? Where they too distracting?.

Dr. Strangelove is hilarious

I haven’t watched this film in awhile, watching it tonight. Dr. Strangelove is so hilarious, especially when The President is talking to Dimitri on the phone. I also crack up when General Ripper talks about body fluids lol. The movie is just a great film in general though. I don’t think it gets enough love as one of Kubrick’s best films.

Horace St Paul was basically a real life Barry Lyndon

Not trusting the British legal system after killing another aristocrat in a duel where there were no witnesses for some reason, he fled to France. From there, he went to Brussels where he met Charles VII Lorraine and joined the Imperial Army where was suggested to join Ulysses Von Browne's staff. By the time of the 1760 Campaign, he was accompanying Marshal Daun. He stayed with them all the way to the end of the 7 Years War. He documented pretty much everything all the way to at least the 1760 Campaign and Helion has 2 books about his writings.

EWS original teaser

I've been searching high and low all over the Internet for that original EWS teaser, with Kidman naked in the mirror , and the "Cruise - Kidman - Kubrick" flashes in between. The link was posted on here a few years back I believe, like a YouTube link from Warner Bros France or something

EWS: Zingler's wife (Reversed) Red Cloak Dress - symbolism/meaning?

At the bourgeois party at their house, Victor Ziegler's wife, Illona Ziegler, is wearing a dress that seems like a reversed red cloak with even small BALL shaped buttons/beads.

Any idea what all it might symbolize?

edit: name spelling

Where can I purchase a clean print of this exact cover art for Dr Strangelove for my wall? I originally saw this on the Criterion collection as you can see but I would love the original unmarked version if anyone can help. Thank you
