You said things that I pretty much agreed with, followed by DVC and others, on regards to THE SHINING, so I simply decided to not rehash the same criticisms or points of agreement.
Instead, I just added an idea that I don't see many SHINING reviews actually concentrate on, me thinks.
Besides Capo, don't you hate it when you're reading several reviews in a row of the same movie, when people write the same points/criticism over and over, more repetitive than a XEROX machine could ever dream to be?
At least thats why I didn't write more on THE SHINING. If anything, that reason is why I had a damn migraine trying to write that review for REAR WINDOW (1954). I mean, what can you add to the mix a film that's not only had the great critics written articles about, but friggin BOOKS, all featured this one movie? I'm still not happy with that review, though people say its good, so maybe I'm just beating myself up too badly for cheap masochistic fun.
