This movie misseed the true meaning of The Shining
I think this filmmaker missed expounding the true meaning of The Shining. Stanley Kubrick was foretelling how he was going to fake his own death, since he already proved he could fake a moon landing. He let everyone, with any intelligence at all, know he was going to fake the ending of his life after a final edit of a movie called Eyes Wide Shut. He chose The Shinning to do it because a major theme of the story is “Simply just because you think something or someone is dead does not mean it is not still there.” There are little things like making a chair, as well as a sticker of Dopey, disappear. This was his way of showing that he was going to disappear. Showing people walking backwards tells how his death is actually backwards and actually the start of his new life. This all becomes quite obvious when at the end of the movie you see a picture of Jack from many years ago (which, of course, means that anyone looking at this picture should think he should be dead now) and in that picture his eyes were actually wide open but the woman on his right has her eyes shut. Further evidence is obvious when you realize why he really changed the room number from 217 to 237. It means he would begin his 2nd life on a March 7...2-3/7...which is the date he faked his death (3/7/1999). If you watch it backwards it becomes even more obvious. People that you thought are dead just come to life, words fly off a typewritten page into the typewriter keys and into Jack's fingers. Watching it backwards, it even ends with the whole family alive and leaving together. I just hope Kubrick doesn’t read this and force the government to harass me by threatening to release the evidence of how he filmed the fake moon landing if they don’t listen to him. I am still investigating the reason he faked his own death. My best hope to stay safe is he went into hiding from everyone so he doesn’t accidentally reveal the moon landing secret.
