In 1966 Stanley Kubrick told a friend that he wanted to make “the world’s scariest movie.” A decade later Stephen King’s The Shining landed on the director’s desk, and a visual masterpiece was born. This definitive compendium of the film features hundreds of photographs, rare production ephemera, and extensive interviews with the cast and crew. The making of Stanley Kubrick’s masterpiece of modern horror “The Shining may be the first movie that ever made its audience jump with a title that simply says, ‘Tuesday,’” proclaimed The New York Times. Never has a film evoked so much dread in its audience with so little gore than Stanley Kubrick’s adaptation of the 1977 novel by the master of terror himself, Stephen King, where true horror lies in the darkest corners of domesticity and isolation.Equally a study of the intricate mechanics of Kubrick’s genius as an in-depth look at the making of a visual masterpiece, Stanley Kubrick’s The Shining gathers hundreds of hours of exclusive new interviews with the cast and crew in an unprecedented look at the 1980 cult classic. Slip in through the back door of The Overlook Hotel to witness Kubrick’s endless rounds of script rewrites, his revolutionary use of the Steadicam, the mechanics behind the infamous blood elevator, the mysterious mid-filming fire at Elstree Studios, and the countless takes needed to satisfy the meticulous force that was Kubrick.Conceived and edited by Academy Award-winning director Lee Unkrich, dubbed by The Hollywood Reporter as “the world's foremost Shining aficionado,” with text by best-selling author J.W. Rinzler and a foreword by Steven Spielberg, this is the definitive compendium of the film that transformed the horror genre.The two-volume collection designed by M/M Paris includes hundreds of never-before-seen production photographs from the Stanley Kubrick Archive and the personal collections of cast and crew, rare documents and correspondence, conceptual art, an exclusive look at deleted scenes, and more.

5 Star Reader Reviews -"✩✩✩✩✩ Captivating, necessary and enlightening.""✩✩✩✩✩ Essential. Wonderfully researched.""✩✩✩✩✩ This book is as good, if not better, than "Fingerprints of the Gods."""✩✩✩✩✩ Read this book. Change your perspective."Graham Hancock - star of Netflix''s ANCIENT APOCOLYPSE - is author of the global bestseller Fingerprints of the Gods. A book which remains an astonishing, deeply controversial, wide-ranging investigation of the mysteries of our past and the evidence for Earth''s lost civilization.Magicians of the Gods, the sequel to his seminal work, explores how, at the end of the last ice age, fragments from a giant comet caused a global cataclysm, on a scale unseen since the extinction of the dinosaurs, wiping out an advanced civilization from the earth. Making us a species with amnesia, forced to begin again like children with no memory of what went before. This book is filled with completely new evidence, new travels to the world''s most mysterious archaeological sites, new insights based on the latest scientific evidence.The impacts, from the comet fragments (a mile wide approaching at more than 60,000 miles an hour) generated huge amounts of heat which instantly liquidized millions of square kilometers of ice, destabilizing the Earth''s crust and causing the global deluge that is remembered in myths all around the world.A second series of impacts, equally devastating, causing further cataclysmic flooding, occurred 11,600 years ago, the exact date that Plato gives for the destruction and submergence of Atlantis.But there were survivors - known to later cultures by names such as ''the Sages'', ''the Magicians'', ''the Shining Ones'', and ''the Mystery Teachers of Heaven''. They travelled the world in their great ships doing all in their power to keep the spark of civilization burning, settling at key locations: Gobekli Tepe in Turkey, Baalbek in the Lebanon, Giza in Egypt, ancient Sumer, Mexico, Peru and across the Pacific. Everywhere they went these ''Magicians of the Gods'' brought with them the memory of a time when mankind had fallen out of harmony with the universe and paid a heavy price.A memory and a warning to the future... For the comet that wrought such destruction may not be done with us yet. Astronomers believe that a 20-mile wide ''dark'' fragment of the original giant comet remains hidden within its debris stream and threatens the Earth. An astronomical message encoded at Gobekli Tepe, and in the Sphinx and the pyramids of Egypt, warns that the ''Great Return'' will occur in our time...

A psychoanalytic approach to screen adaptation that examines the role of deep-rooted desire evident in the persisting media practice of adaptation from literature to film.The prevalence of adaptations in cinema – from literary texts – is striking. What does this lead us to think about adaptation? This open access book answers this question from a psychoanalytic perspective by exploring the psychic dynamics underlying screen adaptation as a practice, offering an intriguing window into the desire for adaptation beyond semiotic parameters and industrial factors. Through a series of examples – from Hamlet and Hitchcock, to Kubrick’s The Shining, and Jonze’s Adaptation – the book theorizes film adaptations in relation to their originals. Drawing on the theories of Freud and Lacan, Hee-seung Irene Lee rigorously explains psychoanalytic concepts such as desire, the drive, the Oedipus complex, the uncanny, and anxiety, which are prevalent and remain useful in the vast field of cultural studies. As a result, readers can easily follow the book’s case studies of canonical film adaptations with interest. At the same time, the author attempts to challenge, expand, and renew the usual definition of film adaptation. This fosters interdisciplinary dialogue between philosophical and psychoanalytic speculations on subjectivity and frames adaptation not merely as a specific mode of filmmaking but a universal, primordial task of every speaking being.The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com.
