It's like peering back into time. I imagine all the nights and parties from previous generations that have just faded away. All the individual stories of people just lost to time. The passage of time must be such a hard concept in cinema to master, here it's perfect. Such a palpable feeling of walking into a forgotten time.
True, all’s lost given enough time, kinda like Roy Batty’s speech at the end of blade runner. Used respect Ridley Scott b4 Prometheus came out, and I realized he had the brain of a toddler given he was ok with that script…sry for the tangent
AND WONDERFULLY RECREATED HERE BY STANLEY KUBRIC. HE TOLD HIS SOUND ENGINEER TO ADD REVERBERATION TO THIS ORIGINAL RECORDING, SO AS TO RECREATE A BALLROOM SOUND.
I recently went to a hotel like this, as i sat in a conversation with one of my fave poets after hours. the whole place was so eerily quiet with one barman and 40s jazz playing. That said I love Al Bowlly. his life was so tragic and sang it the best, only leading to this generation discovering him via the caretaker's music which was inspired by this scene.
I always think this scene is the creepiest of the whole film. The music, the surreal dialogue and the dream-like quality combine to give me the willies.
I like to get high and hear this song because when I'm faded like the world feels like a dream in a way and so music to me has a flowy effect to me which feels nice
@@siainvestigationsteam2713 Hard to beat a Kubrick vibe when he puts his mind to setting a mood for a scene. I’d say the Coen bros when they’re at their best, Nick Pizzolotto on season 1 of True Detective (b4 he lost his mind), and I’m sure more one-and-done directors that I can’t think of when we’re talking pure competence and fulfillment of vision, but that’s just my opinion. Also David Lynch beats him for a purely “feel” perspective I’d say, since he’s the only guy I know who can write (seemingly) from his subconscious.
Sadly, the lead singer for this ballad, Al Bowlly, was killed by a Luftwaffe parachute mine during the London Blitz that detonated outside his apartment on Duke Street. The date was April 17, 1941.
Fate can be so cruel. AL was appearing at a theatre that night, just north of London. He had just releast his first and only satirical comedy record, about Hitler, and had agreed to support a friend who was appearing on the stage there, and AL was persuaded to promote his new record that very night. Afterwards, Al turned down his friends offer of a room at his place for the night, but he decide to catch the last train into London, and home. Later, he was sat up in bed, reading, when the parachute bomb exploded outside his appartment. The blast blew in his bedroon door, which struck his face with great force, and killed him. He was found sat-up in bed, as though asleep. Such is fate.
If I were a gazillionaire I would build a hotel with a ballroom exactly like this, and every New Years Eve I would re-enact this with as many people as there were in this scene, even if I had to pay them to come. Of course it goes without saying this song would be played often during the night. And color me completely blown away that the person responsible for the choice of this song for the movie posted in this thread. Thank you, Gordon Stainforth, for your superb artistry.
I own a club in East London, that perfectly suits this ballroom scene and have for sometime considered recreating this and other elements of the Shining on a Halloween night. It might just happen.
You wouldn't have to pay me for that, I would even bring money if I had the honor of being a guest in such a location. Simply magical and sooooo cool!!!!🤩🤩🤩
Was not just Nicholson by a long shot, the movie would not be the same without Philip Stone and Joe Turkel. Loyd's facial expressions alone has convinced me that he indeed is the bartender from hell tempting poor souls like Mr. Torrance.
yea I know they were good too and along with Danny Lloyd. The expressions on his face and Wendy as the ax goes through the door orvtge blood finally coming out of the elevator in the last 20 minutes of the movie
Same singer did the song featured in the movie 'Withnail & I'. Song is called 'Hang out the stars in indiana' If you like this one, you'll probably like that one also!
this film is now 44 years old i remember seeing it my local cinema in late 1980 it has certainly stood the test of time and the following up film with EWAN McGregor playing the son
A true 1921 recording would have been of pretty poor technical quality, so it had to be something more recent. I believe that the Bowlly recording was from a live performance in the London area.
As the music editor who first tried this song on this scene I was well aware that it was anachronistic, but it was just so right for the scene that I couldn't offer Stanley anything else that worked remotely as well. I gave him a choice of only about two or three other pieces, and then played them to him once I'd cut them in on temporary tracks. I deliberately wasn't too pushy, and just hoped and prayed that he would go for MATSAY. I remember he kept me waiting for about two or three days before he suddenly came in and said, OK, cut it in, Gordon! I was absolutely over the moon.
@@GordonStainforthTo me, ir sounds as though the performance was recorded live in a [large] ballroom, which suits its context at the end of the picture where Jack's head appears, superimposed on that old "1921" party-picture.
@@None-zc5vg One problem was that we just had the original (quite good) Al Bowlly mono track. Bill Rowe played around with it a bit in the dubbing theatre to give it that slightly echoey, realistic perspective.
I grew up as a kid in the 80's. This film was always a mystery to I. As I got of adult age - what a masterpiece it was and is. I always enjoyed this score/song
That looks like one hell of a party! Everyone is dancing, drinking or having a natter. No fucking about on mobiles looking at Facebook, twitter etc like in these sad times
He should ve received several awards for this movie. The part with the steps. The part where Wendy follows him in the gold room. The part in the bedroom. The whole thing. They couldn't get anyone better to play that part and they knew it
Notice that Lloyd never blinks. He glances down to pour the drink, but when looking at Jack, he never blinks. That somehow adds to the ominous vibe flowing from Lloyd. The scene in the restroom with Mr. Grady that comes next is where the real tension sets in.
This song is a masterpiece and would make you feel like dancing and reminds me of the casino beach ballroom those were precious days when I use to go dancing
This scene!!!!!!! Have to agree with others...the best and creepiest of all movie scenes...the acting and directions flawless in their execution...an absolute masterpiece!!!!!!!
I used to work at a hotel at night when I was walking the event center was having a 20's flapper event. And they played music like this, the front desk and I were the only ones out because the door was closed for their party but it gave us the creeps because we could hear them laughing with music playing but we couldn't see them and walking in the empty hallways alone was scary too.
Just think these people are reliving this over and over and over.... because time doesn't end....it continues...one day we will be able to go back to the 20s or 30s .and see how it was😊
My Oma took me to see this at the theater when it came out. It was the late show and around midnight when it got out. We went to McDonalds after. It’s one of the best memories I still have. As an adult, I would always stay at The Waldorf Astoria anytime I visited NYC. It reminded me of The Overlook so much. It’s age and imagining all the stories behind all those closed doors over the always enchanted me. Thanks.

ON a 10 inch shellac record, i used to play it all the while when i was about 5 or 6. i knew the Records by their colourful labels, 'Red and Gold Rex label.
Its like stepping into a time machine of sort.. listening to the music... it feels like the 1930s 1940s to me ...kind of spooky but very moving at same time 👏💙 god bless you al
My wife once played this song (or something eerily similar) on her parent's old electronic organ; she definitely wasn't prepared for the look of sheer horror on my face when she finished.
This scene is great. I get goosebumps everytime the lady with bloody hand print on the back of her dress. The music is great and creepy as soon as she walks by and you get feeling of dread. Because all of those people are dead.
Wow, I must have watched my favourite film at least 30 times since seeing it in the cinema when it was released in 1980. But until tonight (Oct 14, 2023) I had never noticed that. And now I will see it every time it is screened!
I like The Shining the music that is a wonderful movie the music is pretty Jack Nicholson Shelley Devall did great in there that is my favorite movie R.I.P. to her
Este salon comedor es mu muy parecido al gran salon comedor del centenario Hotel "Maury" de Lima. que excelente escena! Es perfecta , muy bien realizada.
I don't remember the lighting changes from seeing it previously. When he walks towards the bar the room is smoky and a brightly lit gold, then when he gets to the bar the lighting drops, then a few times while talking to the bartender his face becomes brightly lit, then fades back. Has anyone else ever noticed that before?
The subtleties of this scene are so amazing. For instance, Jack wipes his hand, either knowingly or unknowingly, on Grady's jacket while patting him on the back.
@@aw08aw That is because Steven King stories are so rambling and corny that they almost never translate well without massive artistic liberties being taken. The master of horror my butt. Stanley Kubrick took a long winded, boring and trite story about a typical King haunted place and a magic people that overshadowed the actual scarier darker underlying themes of the book, and turned it into a genuinely unsettling story amplifying those darker themes. In the end it really doesn't even matter if the cliched King stuff exist or if it is just people losing their minds and descending into the dark themes. That is why King hated it, Kubrick showed him up and hurt his ego, whether he intended to or not. Stephen Kings miniseries was an absolute joke, because as much as he rambles about concepts like evil, he can never express them in the way Kubrick simply did.
@@TNAROHfan You're right i imagine Steve really did hate Kubricks adaptation of his story because of how many liberties he took like you said, but atleast if it werent for King's books i dont think we'd have this masterpiece.

Something I noticed after rewatching these scenes, is that this song was recorded in 1934 but the ball that is playing the music was in 1921
With fashions from the late '20s. 1921 was noticeably different from 1926 or 27.

The only scene I like in the whole film. It was too surreal the rest of it and menacing. This music is soothing and nostalgic in a good way.

Almost as much time has passed since The Shining was released (42 yrs) as the time between this song and The Shining (46 yrs).

It's the contrast between the obsolete and abandoned with the splendour and joy of a lost era that makes this scene unique. (Despite the plot)
Why does early 20th century music perfectly create the creepiest vibes in horror films? 😂
1934.
I count this as Kubrick’s best, bar none. The terrific anachronisms are totally real to us but never revealed to the characters.
I just noticed this for the first time that the lights keep going bright then dim as is the mood is somehow changing back and forth.
