Stanley Kubrick
Shining

You know. The anatomy of human behavior dictates that when a part of sentiment/tolerance called patience is violated by any scandalous act, or something else... it dictates that tolerance be decimated by a sense of reasoned anger. When this anger is not reasoned, or rather has no justification to enact the law: An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth; one realizes that "one has gone mad." This kind of pathology strikes immediately, manifesting the first signs of anger. And from that point, there is no turning back. Shining is a visual translation of what I am writing. It can (beware) have many nuances, which can be Jack's ironic/brutal outbursts of rage or Geremia's traumatizing visions (traumatizing also for the viewer). Let us talk about the film. A cold and sweet winter morning, a good family decides to go to a hotel, also to support the life of the man of the house, who has taken a job there. At this point, however, the first thing we notice is Geremia's monologues with his friend "who lives in his mouth," whom he persistently asks to tell him what is strange in the hotel, leaving this anguished aura supported by the great musician Wendy Carlos.
At this point, anyway, the kid discovers, thanks to the hotel's cook, that he has a power, the Shining. The shining allows him to foresee the future but also to revisit the past. From this last note, I would say that the film's masterpiece scene is based precisely on an event that previously happened in the hotel where our characters will stay. The twin girls who persistently ask to play with Geremia, the elevator that opens and lets out blood. All these psychedelic and mind-violating events, just like Geremia's. At this point, the dear wife goes to Jack, and like all wives, asks him if there is anything he desires, after a rude reply, she returns to the room. And little Geremia shows signs of strangulation. Everyone as usual thinks it was Jack, but it is not so. In a room of the hotel (if my mind does not deceive me, I believe it is 137) to which the kid is explicitly forbidden entry, where resides a strange entity that loves the pain of others. So Jack searches for the room. Notice the stunning shots, especially Jack's entrance into the room. Supported by one of the most terrifying scenes of the film (and I say nothing to leave this sensation of curiosity... because revealing everything would be foolish, especially for those looking for a review of the film Shining, where they want to know too much). However, the monologues with the bartender were superb, I would say fantastic. But not as much as the one between Jack and the man who, a few years before, had dismembered his family. In this scene, I would emphasize Jack's behavior with his "superior," Jack, despite not having done his duty, something the man of the discussion had already done long ago, Jack shows a behavior of defiance and wickedness superior to his own, with that smirk that makes you pale just looking at it. From then on, Jack engages in a very violent rampage, with all the anger he has in his heart. First, he kills the black man, and then he deals with the family (his anger was only suppressed because he was locked in a small room by his wife). From which comes another cult scene of the film, the wife's escape. Anguishing. But the climax is reached when the young woman notices some specters in a room. One of which I won't say what it was up to ;-). Runs runs runs, when at a certain point the "big bad wolf" breaks down the door, but the damsel escapes, along with the boy (obviously on foot, because Jack sabotaged the snowcat) pursued by this malevolent wave. This feeling rises to the point of exasperation, becoming genuine fear. But at a certain point, Jack gets lost in the maze and dies of exposure. Stanley Kubrick has never done anything out of turn, and at this point, with a genuine cult fear film, he reaches his peak.

Notes:

Wife - For the wife's name it's the same thing as Funny Games, I have given free rein to the appellatives

Film genre - I added splatter, because some scenes are truly touching. See the twin girls.
