Charles Mudede's aversion to Stanley Kubrick films notwithstanding, The Shining towers over every film made before or since about hauntings, possessed children, beleaguered wives, and psychotically murderous ax-swinging lunatics. (And there are a lot.) There's something beautifully, coldly opulent about its portrait of American violence, with Kubrick and cinematographer John Alcott's inexorable tracking shots rushing us toward overwhelming evil. The theater will be showing The Shining on 35mm film as part of their Summer of Celluloid.
