by Anonymousreply 55April 14, 2017 5:59 PM

R53, the movie was released in March of 1995, received mixed reviews (Entertainment Weekly notoriously gave it a D-) and box-office was minimal. I knew the instant I saw it that it would become a cult classic and it is rightly now considered not just one of the best King adaptations but also one of the best films of the 90s. It deserved nominations for, imho, Picture, Director, Actress (Bates), Supporting Actress (Parfitt), Adapted Screenplay, Cinematography, Film Editing, and Original Score.

by Anonymousreply 56April 14, 2017 6:05 PM

No love for Plummer and JJL r56?. Hackford's directoon is great. The actress who played the young Selena was very good too as was Strathain. This film is just as good as Shawshabk and better than the Green Mile IMO

According to wik r83

"The teaser trailer mentions titles of and characters from a number of Stephen King novels, including: It, Dolores Claiborne, Needful Things, 'Salem's Lot, Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption, Dreamcatcher, Night Shift, The Green Mile, Misery, Hearts In Atlantis, The Shining, The Mangler, Four past Midnight, Different Seasons, Nightmares & Dreamscapes, and The Night Flier."

Although I haven't read all the above, I don't remember the Shining having any connection to Castke Rock or Maone generally. Jack was a teacher in Stovington Vt. Maybe Jack grew up in Castke Rock
