Join us Tuesday, January 27th at 7:00 p.m. for a Stephen King adaptation that really “shines”!

About the film

Jack Torrance is a writer who’s looking to kill two birds with one stone: writing a novel and finding a temporary job that both pays well enough to provide for his family and gives him enough free time to ply his literary craft. He seemingly finds the perfect fit when he is hired to be the winter caretaker at the Overlook Hotel. What initially appears to be a dream job for Torrance soon becomes a descent into madness as the dark history of the hotel reveals itself during one of the worst winters in recent memory.

While the film adaptation differs in some significant ways from the Stephen King story on which it is based, The Shining bears the mark of director Stanley Kubrick’s perfectionist approach to filmmaking and is replete with some of the most unforgettable imagery and acting performances in all of cinema history!
