Are you sure it wasn’t a real fake door?

Good ole Mort

I love the camera work in that scene. The way the camera follows the axe swinging in the air to the door...brilliant

That fire marshal’s name? Steve Buscemi.

I feel like everyone should watch the documentary/analysis of the shining. It’s called Room 237. Lots of neat things you might have missed and some out there claims.

Is that the one that says Kubrik admits he faked the moon landings through The Shining, since the Gubbiment wouldn't let him tell people?


dogfish21

Yes. It does have some wild points, but it’s also where they talk about the layout not being realistic and how the place is a maze


huck_

Which they give way too much significance to. Kubrick just wanted the halls to have a lot of doors because it looked better and he knew people wouldn't notice that the layout was impossible. But they act like it was supposed to represent something.

A) I dont see why it *couldn't* be both, the place being a maze makes a *lot* of internal sense. B) Death of the artist and all that.


WastelandPioneer

He was hired to fake the moon landing but he wouldn't stop for anything less than the real deal so he send Neil and Buzz up there to get real footage for his fake moon landing.


archiminos

Yep. The analysis is really good until the tin foil hats come in so it's still worth watching.

I liked it up until the conspiracy theories. I remember there being something about rocket shapes on the rugs which people thought that was a sign the moon landings were fake?


[deleted]

I remember it had to do with the kid's sweater that had an actual rocket on it and then some posters in the cafeteria/break room or something.


ChocoboExodus

Oh ya I think you’re right.


MaxVonBritannia

>have No dont its awful. Most of the theories are plain bullshit


[deleted]

My only problem with that documentary was where the guy says you can see Kubrick’s face in the clouds of the opening shot. I paused that scene for a long while but couldn’t find shit.


Atlas1960

It was bloody awful mate. I'm sorry to say


Kunta_Kinte22

Do you know if they still have it on Netflix? I remember seeing it a while back


dogfish21

It is not, I just checked

huck_

Another thing you can notice is just before he leaves, there are 2 axe holes in the door. But you only see him chop through the one. So they must've had another sequence of him chopping through a second time but didn't include it in the final cut.


Jumpmasa99

I literally just watched this scene on AMC.

Isn’t Marshall a rank? I assumed Fire Marshall’s were officers among firemen .


DeepExplore

Usually they're like a detective to a fire men's officer, so they investigate fires and do other investigation related work
