This new poster for The Shining was created by Warner Bros. for the limited theatrical re-release of the film on September 26 and October 1, 2019. The Shining has been recently restored and re-mastered in 4K, and will be shown for two nights in theaters to build interest in its sequel, Dr. Sleep, which will be released on November 8, 2019.

For the Italian version, instead of “All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy,” Kubrick chose a phrase that translated to “The morning has gold in its mouth.”

Artist George Jenne created a near-exact replica of Stuart Ullman’s office from The Shining as part of an art installation titled “You’ve Reached the Office of Stuart Ullman” (2017).
From the artist’s notes:
You’ve Reached the Office of Stuart Ullman measures the veracity of cinephilia by taking verisimilitude to its threshold. The banality of Stuart Ullman’s office makes the portentous moments that occur inside of it all the more palpable. The office, which is buried deep in the eerie spacial and narrative architecture of the movie, defies the logic and layout of the Overlook Hotel, according to die hard Shining fans. Is it true conspiracy on Kubrik’s part, or did he fudge it, and perform a calculated manipulation in the face of the pragmatism that guides every creative endeavor?
Cinema student Valerio Sbravatti published this video essay comparing the different home video editions of Stanley Kubrick’s The Shining that have been released through the years. Within it, he meticulously identifies how the different versions vary both from each other and from the original 35mm print in regards to both picture and sound.
