Adapted from the book of the same title written by stephen king, this is a classis film directed by Stanley Kubrick who may be also known directing "eyes wide shut" . Stanley Kubrick's name, for some people can mean a best movie quality. "The shining's" cast is : Jack Nicholson as Jack Torrance * Shelley Duvall as Winifred "Wendy" Torrance * Danny Lloyd as Daniel "Danny" Torrance. Well known Jack Nicholson ( 12 times nominated for oscar and won three: two for Best Actor and one for Best Supporting Actor ) plays here a brillant role again. He is the man to overlook at the "empty" hotel during a winter months, so he moves in with his family. Sounds like a nice winter hollidy, however the situation turns to be a nightmare when dead occupiers want to take control of new locators minds.
