The Big Picture Like many writers and directors who rise to the top of their profession, Stanley Kubrick was, no doubt, a perfectionist, and it's hard to disagree with that statement based on evidence throughout the auteur's career. The last six films he directed took sequentially longer before he deemed them ready for release. There's a three-year gap between 1968's 2001: A Space Odyssey and 1971's A Clockwork Orange.
The Shining R HorrorMysteryThriller A family heads to an isolated hotel for the winter where a sinister presence influences the father into violence, while his psychic son sees horrific forebodings from both past and future. It's one of the most important scenes in the film, explaining "the shining" in a way that's simple for Danny to understand and, in turn, the viewer. Dick is the instructor, mentor, and finally the voice of warning, while Danny is set up as one who knows a deeper truth about the Overlook than what he lets on.
In Kubrick's eyes, however, he didn't view his acts as those of a perfectionist, but rather a director having to repeat a scene because the actors are unprepared. In a 1987 interview with Rolling Stone Magazine, when asked about the rumors of doing a hundred takes for one scene, Kubrick didn't deny it, but was upfront with his rationale. As he explains, if actors are unprepared with their lines, they cannot act.
