I haven't told the story very often publicly.
I'll tell you a story about Stanley.
When I saw the movie, it came out.
I had finished Raiders.
I was in England.
And I went out to eat with Stanley, and he wanted to know what I thought of The Shining.
And because Stanley is, he's not brutally honest.
He's really careful about his honesty, but he's honest.
He'll tell you if he doesn't like something, and he'll tell you why it didn't work for him.
And I said to Stanley, he said, did you like The Shining?
I said, yeah, I really liked it a lot.
And he stopped me right there.
He says, no, you didn't.
I said, why?
He says, because I can tell you didn't like it a lot.
You might have liked it, but you didn't like it a lot.
What did you really think of The Shining?
And I told him that there were certain things that confused me because I was in love with the book.
I loved when the heaters, the generators blew up.
I mean, I loved the topiary animals coming to life.
