You're absolutely bonkers lol, she was excellent. Her voice especially was uncannyAlso the Shelly Duvall recast actress was fucking terrible. The rest were ok.
Well she might get nominated for a razzie like Duvall was just for authenticity.Also the Shelly Duvall recast actress was fucking terrible. The rest were ok.
It been praised as an adaptation for it being able to bring the themes of Doctor Sleep to the big screen. Its very much Doctor Sleep's heart and ideas even if they made some changes and tied it to the events of the Kubrick movie.Kind of confused by some of the posts/reviews.
I keep hearing people call this a fairly faithful adaptation of the book. I also keep hearing people mention stuff from the first movie, or the Outlook Hotel etc...
The book has nothing to do with the Outlook outside of a few references.
Also curious if a few things happen.
Is Danny still Abra's uncle in this movie? Does that twist still happen? Also, do they go into the bit about Abra predicting/feeling 9/11 as a newborn?
Does she imagine herself as/use Daenarys Targaryen in a psychic/dream trap battle vs Rose? =p

None of those things are in the movie
I don't consider this remotely faithful to the book.Kind of confused by some of the posts/reviews.

I could have been convinced that was Duvall. She was spot on. Initially Nicholson's double had me wondering if he was supposed to be Jack.
Can someone describe the last 5 minutes of the movie? It got cut from my version.
Our version ended with Abra hearing some kind of phone ringing right after telling her mom everyone was ok in the afterlife. We hear the phone ring she says she'll be down for dinner in a minute, then it weirdly cuts to credits.
That's an absolutely thankless role, to be playing Jack. It's one of the most iconic, recognizable characters in cinema. They would have been better off to find a bang-on soundalike, and then just shoot Jack from behind so you didn't see his face. I'm convinced that was a no-win situationDude was fatter and younger than Jack (from the Shining) with none of his mannerisms. Terrible casting choice.
Thought Duvall's double was perfect.
