Stephen King Is Wrong About Kubrick’s Take On The Shining
While Stephen King may have hated Stanley Kubrick’s adaptation of The Shining, the author was wrong to claim that the movie did not do the source novel justice. In the years since Stanley Kubrick adapted Stephen King’s novel The Shining, the iconic horror author has softened his views of movies and television shows that bring his work to life onscreen. Perhaps because his work has been adapted so many times across so many mediums, King’s comments on projects like Welcome To Derry’s Pennywise backstory are now typically limited to enthusiasm, interest, or mild criticism.
