Channel 4 Recreates The Shining


From slashfilm, The Pitch: Channel 4 has painstakingly recreated the set of Stanley Kubrick’s The Shining for this 65-second one-take tracking shot complete with lookalikes of the cast. “Viewers get Kubrick’s point of view as he walks through the set, ending up in his director’s chair as the crew prepare to shoot the famous scene of Danny Torrance, the son of Duvall and Jack Nicholson’s characters, riding round and round the deserted corridors of the Overlook Hotel.”
