Stanley Kubrick's The Shining

Description:

“The Shining may be the first movie that ever made its audience jump with a title that simply says, ‘Tuesday,’” proclaimed The New York Times. Never has a film evoked so much dread in its audience with so little gore than Stanley Kubrick’s adaptation of the 1977 novel by the master of terror himself, Stephen King, where true horror lies in the darkest corners of domesticity and isolation.

Equally a study of the intricate mechanics of Kubrick’s genius as an in-depth look at the making of a visual masterpiece, Stanley Kubrick’s The Shining gathers hundreds of hours of exclusive new interviews with the cast and crew in an unprecedented look at the 1980 cult classic. Slip in through the back door of The Overlook Hotel to witness Kubrick’s endless rounds of script rewrites, his revolutionary use of the Steadicam, the mechanics behind the infamous blood elevator, the mysterious mid-filming fire at Elstree Studios, and the countless takes needed to satisfy the meticulous force that was Kubrick.

Conceived and edited by Academy Award-winning director Lee Unkrich, dubbed by The Hollywood Reporter as “the world's foremost Shining aficionado,” with text by best-selling author J.W. Rinzler and a foreword by Steven Spielberg, this is the definitive compendium of the film that transformed the horror genre.

The two-volume collection designed by M/M Paris includes hundreds of never-before-seen production photographs from the Stanley Kubrick Archive and the personal collections of cast and crew, rare documents and correspondence, conceptual art, an exclusive look at deleted scenes, and more.

Review

“A two-volume compendium of almost 1,400 pages sheds new light on the film – and reveals the last secrets of the film... The book changes everything!” ― Bild am Sonntag

“To be precise, it is 869 pages in which Kubrick specialist Rinzler and his editor, Hollywood director Lee Unkrich, cover everything. Starting with the book on which it is based, through the filming, to the most adventurous interpretations decades after its release. The texts are easy to read, and there is also a second, almost equally thick volume in the slipcase containing hundreds of photos, some of which have never been published before.” ― Neue Zürcher Zeitung

“TASCHEN has published an extensive masterpiece in honor of the film: This monumental work is not only a visual delight, but also documents in detail the creation and significance of The Shining.” ― dpa

“A dizzying plunge into the world of a cult film that marked many generations.” ― La Liberté

“One doesn't come across an ultimate making-of like this every day.” ― Première

“This sumptuous volume reveals everything, absolutely everything, about ‘The Shining.’” ― La Repubblica

“A journey through time.” ― Vogue

“Land of milk and honey: now, in two stunning volumes, Oscar-winning American director Lee Unkrich, together with film historian J. W. Rinzler, has reconstructed the history of the filming.” ― Frankfurter Allgemeine Sonntagszeitung

“Anyone who wants to know everything about Kubrick's film The Shining and how it came about will find it in these magnificent volumes. Here, too, horror is guaranteed.” ― Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung

“TASCHEN is dedicating one of its voluminous works of art to Shining: this epic is not only a feast for the eyes, but also meticulously traces the creation and significance of the film using texts and numerous images. You can completely disappear in it.” ― Der Spiegel

“Drawing on a trove of interviews and images, this two-volume edition is for the serious film buff or Kubrick aficionado.” ― The Boston Globe

“To me, it read like a thriller. It’s an extraordinary document, and something that I think any creative person would view as an absolute necessity. It’s a stunning achievement.” ― Steven Soderbergh

From the Back Cover

In 1966 Stanley Kubrick told a friend that he wanted to make “the world’s scariest movie.” A decade later Stephen King’s The Shining landed on the director’s desk, and a visual masterpiece was born. This definitive compendium of the film features hundreds of photographs, rare production ephemera, and extensive interviews with the cast and crew.

Reviews:

5.0 out of 5 stars Vast detailed production log which will delight Kubrick fans.

S. · 24 February 2025

An outstanding achievement and entirely worthy of the obsessiveness and detail-driven film director Stanley Kubrick. This vast tome on the production of Mr Kubrick's The Shining delves into granular detail regarding the different stages of said production. For those who couldn't afford the £1,000+ initial release of this book, the £100 version is the only other option, but well worth it if you are a Kubrick obsessive like myself. Less open to scholarly analysis of the finished film, which it seems Kubrick himself was not keen on, this is very much a nuts & bolts breakdown of who did what and when. It's very sad that co-author Rinzler died before this hit the printing press, but it shows the same rigour and unearthing of details as his previous Making of Star Wars books. It also offers a fair variety of views from those who actually collaborated with the director, which doesn't entirely demystify, but also avoids the tendency to deify such an iconic figure. Entirely recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great price

B. · 15 January 2025

Worth every penny if like me, the film left an indelible mark and feel haunted by the film. This book answers so many questions and is just beautiful. I’m glad Taschen released a trade version. The 2K one was unfairly priced for most people.

This is an outstanding item for anybody seeking to know more about the making of and behind the scenes of one of the best horror movies ever made. Stanley Kubrick’s master piece has left a legacy of thought provoking debates over potential hidden messages and or subplots, but ultimately a masterpiece nonetheless. I missed out on purchasing the full release of this compendium but have to say this reduced version is not only affordable but equally satisfying. Highly recommended!
