Lol the first time I saw this entire movie in one sitting was when I was working for Target fresh out of highschool.and that is exactly what this reminded me of 😂
The acting of Philip Stone (Grady) was superb here. His transformation from the overly courteous gentleman, to the frightening axe wielding waiter are chilling. He becomes an entirely different character by a minor change in tone and demeanor.
he’s not axe wielding, delbert grady wasn’t the caretaker who killed his daughters and wife but charles grady, a sort of “reincarnation” of delbert grady. like how jack torrence is a reincarnation
@@leonheathourakov1732 Jack torrance is not a reincarnation. These are ghosts that want him do the same as grady did. And when someone is a reincarnation, why would this person always ends in the same situation? Thats not the sense how a reincarnation works.
...The creepiest thing is, Jack is not looking at Grady in this scene...Jack is looking directly into the Mirror the whole time, and talking to Himself.
Yes great insight, I think it is because Delbert Grady never existed or wasnt caretaker, his insanity that jack came to made him believe that he just became caretaker and Delbert had murdered his wife and son, while he had always been the caretaker. Yet I do question if Jack killed wendy or danny, i know, you don't see it in the movie, yet that might be his imagination of his unconcious sanity, What if he actually killed them chopped in to bits and had been the caretaker the whole time
It's not one ghost, it's two. One has possessed Jack, as it had possessed Grady before him. The next caretaker will talk to Jack, and Jack will tell him that he's always been the caretaker. A spiritual time loop.
The very moment Grady drops the polite mask and becomes an omniscient evil force and dominates Jack's space to the point he slightly leans back. Chilling and so effective. Just two actors and a camera. They don't make em like this anymore.
I thought I was the only one who saw that lol. The movement is so slight you can barely see it. Actually, at the beginning, Grady is the one leaned back a bit, and Jack is standing into him, but slowly, the movement reverses, Grady stands upright, an Jack leans back.
I love the face that he does at 1:08 . I always thought it was a mix between him feeling smart for “catching” Mr. Grady but also realizing that he’s talking to a ghost
My brother didn't care for The Shining at first. When I watched it with him, even tried to switch it off before it was over. But I... corrected him, Sir. And when my mother tried to prevent me from doing my duty, I... corrected her.
Your brother is a very naughty boy, and your mother is a very naughty woman, if I may be so bold. Perhaps they need a good.........................talking to.
I remember a nightclub toilet back in the 90's painted red looked exactly like that. Me and my friend have always loved this movie, so one night we started repeating the dialogue there. The cubicles were all occupied, probably doing coke or something. Mid way through our dialogue the room went quiet, you could have dropped a pin and heard it! xD They must have been shitting themselves, literally, Lol.
You should have said "I'm sorry to er differ with you sir but YOU are the club owner you've always been the club owner I should know sir I've always been here..."
@@k_h_nobody I’m sorry to differ with you sir, but you……………….. are the caretaker, you have always……….been the caretaker. That’s the line right there, bone chilling.
In Cold Blood was filmed in the actual murder house in Holcomb, Kansas. Several of the cast members were extremely uncomfortable working there. It isn't a horror film per se, but it is creepy as hell.
@@arise2945 And that Robert Blake killed his wife, for that matter. All the stores and such were real, too. Places they were. Too bad the driveway lined with trees all died. The house is still there, tho.
From a film maker's standpoint. It's such an amazing use of the two shot method that beautifully punctuates the verbal battle between Jack and Grady. Kubrick filmed this conversation while tossing out the 180 degree rule by crossing the 180 line placing the camera at the exact opposite point at the moments when both characters think they've bested each other with disturbing news. Jack thinks he's got Grady by informing him he's murdered his wife & kids and committed suicide with the greatest of condescending douchiness for the first minute, then at 1:09 the camera travels exactly to the opposite side of the 180 axis, breaking the conventional rule of filming dialogue. It subconsciously jolts the audiences and even suggests to the duality of these two characters and their interchangeability, they're one in the same which is then reflected by Grady at 1:29 dropping his own bomb on Jack when the camera jolts back to catch Jack slowly recoil at the horrifying news that he's "always been the caretaker" A truly masterful way to punctuate dialogue. Try imagine it being filmed any other way, with cameras cutting back and forth and close ups, and yadda. Nope Kubrick's art can be seen in every shot, in every film he made. There were no mistakes and everything was deliberate and precise. Wonderful film making.
I love how their body language subtly shifts from 1:30 onwards. Grady goes from leaning backwards to pushing his head forwards accusatorily while Jack slowly shifts his weight on to his back foot, looking almost childishly timid. It illustrates the tonal shift perfectly. Great actors under the guidance of a legendary director.
I really adore the way both of them get more and more still as the revelation is revealed, until eventually both of them are completely frozen in stance. It’s so realistic, alarm and confusion leading to both of them just standing there staring, trying to make sense of or rationalize the situation in their heads. It adds SO much realism and tension to just have them standing there like that.
I guess neither of the two can realise they are both pawns of the supernatural powers influence of the Overlook hotel rather stuck in a murderous time loop at different points in history.
I love the subtle details and body language in this scene. Up until this point @1:10 Jack is physically dominating the conversation with a strong stance and leaning into Grady. Grady is leaning away. Now watch closely in the next shot how Grady slowly starts leaning forwards towards Jack and standing more upright while Jack begins to lean away. The tiny forwards shift in Grady's posture is so subtle but very powerful visually in changing the scenes dominance dynamics.
@@tender0828 viewers no longer pay such attention to the details. shorter attention span, watching Netflix while browsing a phone etc. "The Power of the Dog" laid all the breadcrumbs in such blatant way you could see them from a mile away, and yet people today still need the "ending explained" videos. and the alternative ending, which fortunately didn't make it into the movie, was even more spoonfeeding (“a slow pan across Peter’s desk in his room, which showed a medical book on his desk”, and that book would be open on a page with a header that makes the final plot twist absolutely obvious). niche movies can still rely on viewers' intelligence, but for the big ones the ship has sailed. the same for TV series, by the way - look how they dumbed down Westworld, for instance. from a fascinating riddle (season 1) to your regular shooty-shooty punchy-punchy, with a fight-evil-Facebook-corporation cliche added to the mix (season 3).
Its freaky how Grady just stands there and doesn't move a muscle, and the camera is JUST far enough away that you can't read the expression on his face when he's confronted with the fact that he murdered his family. That's the genius of Kubrick
The scene where Danny is riding his bigwheel through the halls was genius too...just the sounds of the wheels alternating between the rugs and wood floor...very creepy
Look at the way the two actors are standing in relation to each other at 1:30 then compare with the same camera shot just 30 seconds later at 2:00. Very small subtle movements by the actors completely changes the dynamic between the two of them. Fantastic direction and acting. (Click on the times in my text alternately and you can see the change instantly that is almost imperceptible on the film).
I have watched this film 100 times❗️ I was a union projectionist in Denver, Colorado when this movie came out❗️ I've watched it and ran it, over, and over, and over‼️®™️
Ya, I think it's time to see Jack do his thing again. I've always wondered how much of his performance is great acting and how much is Jack just being himself...😮
He's good when he's not playing himself, a Few Good Men is one of the few good examples I can think of - but a lot of the time I think he was cast to be Jack Nicholson in whichever role.
"This mens room is extremely pristine, it may be the most pristine in the world. Someone came in here and actually tried to defecate in it, so I........corrected him. And when his wife heard his screaming and came in here trying to stop me from doing my duty, I.........corrected her."
I noticed how wonderful that echo of some distant past's dancehall music punctuates this scene. But also, now I realize how a certain English musician who called himself "The Caretaker" (Leyland James Kirby) came up with his artist name. His recordings all resemble this haunting sound. More about The Caretaker...en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Caretaker_(musician)
I still believe certain aspects of this movie has an influence on the original Bioshock. The music, the theme of the haunted hotels, dude with the bunny mask etc
Haven't seen this film in years. This was the first mind-fuck film I've ever seen and still probably the best. Many modern films of this type make zero sense and don't have a proper ending.
kubrick breaks the 180 degree rule. which is switching the side of the room the camera is on, so in one scene jack in on the right, in the next he's on the left - which is disorienting to viewers. my take, he broke the rule to show that they are essentially the same person - and if they're the same person, he never switched sides, so technically he didn't break the 180 rule.
I love the small hint of humour in this otherwise uncomfortable scene. "You chopped your wife and kid into pieces and blew your brains out." "That's strange sir, I have no recollection of that at all." 😂🤣
Such a profound and thought provoking scene in an absolute gem of a film. Makes me think that his subconscious has sort have come "full circle" with his thoughts and fears. He's having trouble dealing with all the information, to the point where he's mudding what's real or imaginary. They say that, when the mind reaches a certain "low", like he has, it can alter perception to the point where you perceive things which are not part of the usual thought processes. Reminds me of the game called BioShock, where people have been splicing with Plasmids, which alter brain chemistry and DNA. And it makes people see spirits, as though it's in the past, not the present. It's SO weird, to think what's outside the everyday boundaries of the reality we're used to.
THis scene feels almost like a Roy Anderson scene, with Jacks character feeling at first like he is transposed unto it and then gradually becomes part of that underlying strange, timeless and somehow pregnant stillness …
One of the scariest movies of all time! I've watched it I don't know how many times and still find nuances I've missed before! Love all Kings books/movies. Salems Lot second in my book!!!

The moment you realise he's been staring at himself in the mirror...very important scene
One of the most memorable movie scenes of my life.
You need to get out more
you could essay every single frame in this film
That little Beavis and Butthead laugh at the end..............Laugh in Fear.
Anyone who can act as phenomenally as Jack Nicholson deserves to be rich and famous.
kubrick breaks the 180 degree rule. which is switching the side of the room the camera is on, so in one scene jack in on the right, in the next he's on the left - which is disorienting to viewers. my take, he broke the rule to show that they are essentially the same person - and if they're the same person, he never switched sides, so technically he didn't break the 180 rule.
How is it disorientating? It's just a different angle of the scene.
I love the small hint of humour in this otherwise uncomfortable scene. "You chopped your wife and kid into pieces and blew your brains out." "That's strange sir, I have no recollection of that at all." 😂🤣
Crazy how just one bad place can drive any man insane.
1:33 The moment Grady becomes the badass
REDRUM....................
I always thought it strange that Jack just accepts the fact that there is this huge party going on and doesn’t freak out lol
Hot chicks. That's why. Lol
“I’m sorry to differ with you sir.
But YOU are the caretaker.”
TURN DOWN FOR WHAT
Just 2 guys having the most disconcerting conversation ever.
Such a profound and thought provoking scene in an absolute gem of a film. Makes me think that his subconscious has sort have come "full circle" with his thoughts and fears. He's having trouble dealing with all the information, to the point where he's mudding what's real or imaginary. They say that, when the mind reaches a certain "low", like he has, it can alter perception to the point where you perceive things which are not part of the usual thought processes. Reminds me of the game called BioShock, where people have been splicing with Plasmids, which alter brain chemistry and DNA. And it makes people see spirits, as though it's in the past, not the present. It's SO weird, to think what's outside the everyday boundaries of the reality we're used to.
Interesting 🤔
Yes Johnny
The background music and noise in this clip is also similar to the background music and noise in some of the Bioshock scenes. Great game!
so, are YOU the caretaker of the Overlook Hotel now ? Is that what you are saying ? Do you need help ? Are you crying out for help perhaps ?!
@@vincents8165 Indeed, like this one where you can hear Debussy 🙂😉👉 ua-cam.com/video/_PcU0df4oLU/v-deo.html
THis scene feels almost like a Roy Anderson scene, with Jacks character feeling at first like he is transposed unto it and then gradually becomes part of that underlying strange, timeless and somehow pregnant stillness …
The voices sound higher-pitched than I expected
One of the scariest movies of all time! I've watched it I don't know how many times and still find nuances I've missed before! Love all Kings books/movies. Salems Lot second in my book!!!
Grady is dishing out some solid advice here.
