The Shining: The Extraordinary Story Behind the Movie
Too Long; Didn't Read
Famously, Stephen King doesn’t like the film:
- He wanted to cast Jon Voight ahead of Nicholson.
- He didn’t like Wendy: “One of the most misogynistic characters. She’s there to scream and be stupid.”
- He called the film “a beautiful Cadillac with no engine inside.”
