What a masterpiece. I’m sure when I saw this as a younglet I enjoyed the story, and Kudos to Stephen King for that. Or maybe I just enjoyed the ‘scary movie’. But I’ve seen it many times since and relished in the craftmanship. Nicholson is stunning, that’s a given. But the imagery and soundtrack combine as a total feast for the senses. Utterly compelling. A real work of art. Kubrick deserves to be right up there with Rembrandt if you ask me.
Not surprising that that iconic image is one of the first things I painted years ago.

It really is an excellent film. Kubrick is responsible for some truly amazing works of art.
Good painting too 🙂

Alex, sorry, never replied to that, thanks!
Thanks K8. Yeah but maybe more like too much TV and no canvas make JB a dull boy.
