What a joke, on himself. Jim, get some help. We no longer give a damn.
The typical Hollywood actor’s days are numbered. The future is CGI and streaming “TV” services. Filming in California,NYC etc is pretty much not a necessity anymore.
Yeah. I saw him in Liar Liar and it was the last one for me. His over acting was sickening. In Ace the pet guy thing, the opening with him as a UPS driver was good. He went downhill fast IMHO.
Opening scene in Ace ventura was good. That’s kind of how a see him. As a one skit comedy actor, like SNL.
It is sad what has happened to Shelley Duvall,
Skip.
I thought it was shot at Mount Hood in Oregon. I was outside a lodge there when someone made that comment. Turns out there is no one correct answer:
Stanley Kubrick’s very free adaptation of the Stephen King novel sees blocked writer Jack Torrance (Jack Nicholson) going barmy in a creepy snowbound hotel.
Although the film was shot almost entirely in the studio at Elstree Studios in Hertfordshire, England, where the hotel interior was constructed, the exterior of the ‘Overlook Hotel’ is the Timberline Lodge, Mount Hood in the Hood River area of Northern Oregon.
Built during the Depression, it’s 45 miles east of Portland, just east of Zig Zag on Route 26. There is no maze at the Timberline – this was built at the old MGM Borehamwood Studios, also in Hertfordshire.
The interior sets were partly based, not on the Timberline, but on the Ahwahnee Hotel, in Yosemite National Park, California.
To complicate matters further, it’s sometimes claimed that the film was made at the Stanley Hotel, 333 East Wonderview Avenue, Estes Park in Colorado. This is the hotel in which King stayed in 1973, and which inspired the original story.
The writer detested the Kubrick adaptation, which junked most of his plot in favour of atmosphere, and sanctioned a TV movie remake, which did indeed use the Stanley.
The opening helicopter shots, of Torrance driving to the Overlook, were filmed by a second unit on Going-to-the-Sun Road, running along the western shore of Saint Mary Lake in Glacier National Park, northeast of Kalispell, Montana.
There is no maze at the Stanley Hotel in CO, that part was filmed in Europe. Spend more than one day in the Rocky Mt. National Park, hike a bit, drive to the West side, all beautiful.
Doh!
“Can’t sand him and will never watch another film he’s in.”
Have you tried #40 grit? ;~>
I refuse to watch anything with that ass hat in it.
Mookabooker can kiss my hairy tousch.
