  1. I just watched The Killing, 1956, Stanley Kubrick's first studio film, and it was pretty good, overall.

    The way it demolishes the idea of the perfectly planned and timed heist should've left that trope dead, scattered to the winds like loot from a busted old suitcase spilled open on an airport runway caught in the turbulent wash of propeller planes.

    Sadly, it did not, and the trope lives on.

  7. #BehindTheScenes
    #TheShining (1980)
    A family heads to an isolated hotel for the winter, where a sinister presence influences the father into violence. At the same time, his psychic son sees horrifying forebodings from both the past and the future.

    Director #StanleyKubrick with his daughter and #JackNicholson being Jack Nicholson.

  8. Stanley Kubrick – „Spartacus“ (1960)

    Ein Moment, in dem das Kino seine ganze eigene Geschichte neu überschrieben hat: Dieser Film gehört ganz ohne Zweifel zu den ganz seltenen Fällen. Er ist noch immer ein Monument. Aber auch eines, das immer noch unter seiner Oberfläche brodelt. Kein sauberer Sandalenfilm, sondern ein hochpolitischer Kommentar. Einer, der unter der Last seiner eigenen Entstehungsgeschichte fast zerbrochen ist und genau daraus noch immer seine ganze Wucht zieht. Mit Kirk Douglas, Tony Curtis, Jean Simmons, Peter Ustinov und Laurence Olivier. (ARTE, Wh.)

  9. @xinit “HEEEEERE'S HELEN!”

    With her #OverlookHotel carpet-pattern #kaftan and axe, #DragonCon2023 #cosplayer Heather Miller mashed up #HelenRoper from #ThreesCompany and #StanleyKubrick's film adaptation of #StephenKing's “#TheShining.”

    Fun triple-entendre:
    • Stanley Kubrick directed “The Shining.”
    • The story was inspired by King’s 1974 visit to the #StanleyHotel in #EstesPark, Colorado.
    • And #MrsRoper’s long-suffering husband… was named Stanley.
