MORE ABOUT THE CLASS:
After forty years, what makes THE SHINING one of the greatest horror films of all time? The film interacts with us on a deeply psychological level. THE SHINING cinematically maps out our mind in a way that feels both familiar and strange. We project our worst fears on the story and characters, even when we know what’s lurking around every corridor of The Overlook. But why does this happen?
