Notice in this clip the Danny character with the Apollo sweater |

Quoting: Salt Notice in this clip the Danny character with the Apollo sweater Room 237 has some interesting connections. the film set for the Apollo stuff was Set #237 |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 37164657 the typewriter is interesting because it is a German brand "Adler" which means "eagle" represents Nazi Germany, also represents US Government on the typewriter, there is a scene where Jack writes "all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy" this is representative of the guilt he had, and was expressing toward his wife, about his committment to US gvmt for the apollo contract. the wife connection is show thru Shelley Duvall's character in the scene |

I agree with you Salt, Kubrick was one of the most incredible film directors ever, and I think he was privy to some deep secrets, which he tried to convey in his films. I recently watched EYES WIDE SHUT and CLOCKWORK ORANGE and 2001 A SPACE ODYSSEY over again was amazed at the messages in those films. I have heard that Kubrick directed the moon landing footage on the set of 2001 in England and I found these videos (parts 1,2 and 3) that has people like Rumsfield and Chaney talking about it and laughing their heads off. Watch it when you have the chance- here’s a link: [link to www.youtube.com] It’s unbelievable! I’ve been meaning to watch THE SHINING again with my new eyes. I’m sure I’ll see things I’ve never seen before. Kubrick was the best! I think THEY snuffed him out just like they did Breitbart. He was just too much of a danger to THEM. THEY LIVE – (another great one) |

I would pay a lot of money to see the unedited versions of all his films, especially Eyes Wide Shut since most of it was left on the cutting room floor.

Quoting: Salt Interesting - Can't wait to watch THE SHINING now. I wonder if it's on Netflix. Don't waste your time. It's not. Pick a copy up at Walmart. |

Kubrick being Jewish himself I'm sure was deeply impacted and marked by this, which is revealed in the Danny scenes when he has the scary visions. |

Sounds like the offed him before he was able to release Eyes Wide Shut. They took out a lot of his scenes in the final edit. A shame really, looks like it blows the whistle on a lot of the sexual stuff the elite is into, among other things. |

Kubrick didn't write the Shining. He produced the movie. The Actual story is the brilliant product of Stephen King's imagination. Quoting: john1054 ugh... kubrick took over the story, which became a ghost afterward, and turned it into his own master creation. Kubrick even evidenced this by a short scene showing a semi truck overturned on the snowy highway crushing a red volkswagen which symbolized Kubrick crushing King's version of the story and making it his own. in the book, Jack drove a red vw. in kubricks film, it was yellow. kubrick was never a producer by any stretch of the word he is a master film maker, director and a cinematographer |

Quoting: Salt In the opening sequence, there are 42 cars in the parking lot. Danny wears a jersey with the number 42 on it. Room 237, (2x3x7=42). There are 42 gallons of blood spewing from the elevator. There are 42 dead people in the Gold Room. |
