[ATTENTION: This review reveals content of the movie.]
Probably Stanley Kubrick's most popular sensation, even though "The Shining" has many riddles, such as the ending group photo from 1929 showing 1980s Jack, after he dies frozen, among the Overlook's distinguished, or how "imaginary" Grady liberates him from the food locker, and what happens to Jack and previously his little Danny with the weird women in room 237, and what does the unfortunate Overlook chef Halloran know about 237 he won't tell young Danny, and finally why the crazed result of Jack's writing project in the Overlook, infinite repetition of "all work and no play, etc."? My possible theory is Kubrick returns to the tragic curse of damnation by temptation with the promise of infinite wealth and luxurious excess through violent appropriation or any evil or demented means, in contrast to the fervent need of ordinary working families to find new good lives in America.
