I find this fascinating, I really do. One of my all time fav movies, and I never knew there were these shots between Kubrick & crew.



Jack is just 'Jack' lol, one hell of a scary fucker, acting or not! Twisted Evil

How he prepares for the axe scene is awesome Smile
Funny thing is he kinda reminds me of my dad in the Shining, the same hair (minus the crazyness)


There must have been a door there in the wall, when I came in.
Truly gone fishing.

Jack Nicholson's m̶e̶t̶h̶o̶d̶ ̶a̶c̶t̶i̶n̶g natural self before shooting the axe scene is brilliant and hilariously creepy, no wonder the iconic "Here's Johnny" line was improvised, the movie's Jack and real one were practically the same Very Happy

Haha, yeah, he is one hell of a guy, and even his co-star (Shelly) knew to take a wide berth, lol. He has some 'presence' about him, no doubt about that.

I honestly think that we wouldn't be surprised if Jack threw the axe in real life, lol. I find this stuff fascinating indeed. Smile

Yeah, he used a real axe on a real door. The story goes that they first prepared a fake or cheap door for him to cut through, but he went through that way too easy and fast Very Happy
I think some of Shelly's reactions in the bathroom aren't acted Laughing But Kubrick did treat her like shit during production to make her feel extra miserable.
