What’s the Difference comes at you this week with one of the most popular viewer suggestions: The Shining. And we can see why - it’s a book by Stephen King, a film by Stanley Kubrick, and the source of some truly iconic imagery. HEEEREEE’s JOHNNY!! <br /><br />At this point, near-countless Stephen King works have been adapted for big and small screen, but back in 1980, the Shining was only the second of King’s novels to come to a theater near you. No less a director than Stanley Kubrick saw the film come to life, and the changes made along the way were many and varied. We’ll look at book and movie, and tell you: What’s the Difference?<br /><br />Have you read Stephen King’s The Shining, or have you only seen the movie? What’s your adaptation of Stephen King’s work (Carrie? It? Misery? The Running Man? - So many to choose from!)? Did you know how many changes the novel underwent under Kubrick’s direction?
