The Shining

I'm no stranger to Jack's madness. I also understand very well the pressure he is under. He forced himself to write to be successful, growl at Wendy's interruptions, hysterical when mad, and glaring and gnashing his teeth. His wife and son's vigilance against him drove him crazy. Slowly controlled by anger and possessiveness, I hope to prove my strength, and finally push myself to the brink of despair. I am no stranger to these because I am familiar with such people in my life. Not a genius or a man. Or eventually there will be a great success or a jade stone will be burnt, pushing yourself and the people around you into the abyss of death.

    First: Are black people working so hard to die? I thought his appearance would turn the plot around. Second: the heroine is too ugly. Third: Who the hell labeled this kind of movie suspenseful!

    I'm really scared to pee. . The extremely depressing camera angle and the life-threatening string music are intertwined, so that many films are obviously more frightening but far less horrible than the shining. Whether it's a rotten movie that makes a mystery or a masterpiece handed down from the world. It's not important anymore. Fate, reincarnation, illusion, sarcasm, the spiritual world and the world of vision merge, a hodgepodge of sadness and annoyance. Objectively rated four and a half stars, but I am emotionally annoying. Every character is extremely annoying.

The Shining quotes

  • Jack Torrance: [disappointed at finding the bar empty] God, I'd give anything for a drink. I'd give my goddamned soul for just a glass of beer.

  • Delbert Grady: Did you know, Mr. Torrance, that your son is attempting to bring an outside party into this situation? Did you know that?

    Jack Torrance: No.

    Delbert Grady: He is, Mr. Torrance.

    Jack Torrance: Who?

    Delbert Grady: A nigger.

    Jack Torrance: A nigger?

    Delbert Grady: A nigger cook.

    Jack Torrance: How?

    Delbert Grady: Your son has a very great talent. I don't think you are aware how great it is. That he is attempting to use that very talent against your will.

    Jack Torrance: He is a very willful boy.

    Delbert Grady: Indeed he is, Mr. Torrance. A very willful boy. A rather naughty boy, if I may be so bold, sir.

    Jack Torrance: It's his mother. She, uh, interferes.

    Delbert Grady: Perhaps they need a good talking to, if you don't mind my saying so. Perhaps a bit more. My girls, sir, they didn't care for the Overlook at first. One of them actually stole a pack of matches, and tried to burn it down. But I "corrected" them sir. And when my wife tried to prevent me from doing my duty, I "corrected" her.
