An exploration of various interpretations of Stanley Kubrick's horror film, Stralucirea. Director: Rodney Ascher Stars: Bill Blakemore, Geoffrey Cocks, Juli Kearns, John Fell Ryan
Rodney Ascher's work is billed as a "subjective documentary" on hidden meanings in the film version of The Shining. It's definitely a crowd pleaser for people who thought the world might end last year, or those who have played Dark Side of the Moon while watching Vrajitorul din Oz. Interviewees offer up a series of insights that blur the line between credibility and fanaticism, but Ascher knows how to respect his cast while entertaining his audience. The notion that Stanley Kubrick created the film as a way of dealing with his feelings about the Holocaust and American imperialism are viable, while some people take what can only be continuity errors to another level of our obsessive search for meaning. More than anything, the documentary is a testament to Ascher's editing skills, as he recontextualizes footage from Kubrick's oeuvre with a deft hand.
