Скачать или смотреть Why The Shining Still Feels So Terrifyingly Relevant, Explained

Stanley Kubrick’s adaptation of Steven King’s The Shining hit theaters 45 years go, but its story still feels eerily relevant to our modern day… The story uncovers how isolation and cruelty can bend and even pierce time itself, grabbing people by the darkest parts of themselves and pulling them down like quicksand. But, if we look a little closer, we might just notice that this cycle the Overlook has pulled the Torrance family into isn’t as unfamiliar to us as we might hope… So, what is it that makes The Shining still resonate even all of these years later? And what can we take away from this story for our own lives? Let’s dive in.
