  1. While preparing each individual shot, you often move, sometimes even remove things, like say paintings, (as in your example), on a wall so that they will fit the composition of that particular picture you are about to shoot. So if some of the props seem to move around between say a WS and an MCU, it's often normal procedure of building individual pictures, not continuity errors.

  2. Hi. I love analyzing Kubrick movies. May I suggest some answers for lights going off and pictures moving? There are many things Kubrick does subliminally to make us feel ill at ease in the movie. One is to mess with our orientation. That's why there's windows where there shouldn't be. Pictures moving suggests we are moving through time, seeing the murder in the Overlook from many different points in time. Furniture seeming to move to suggest we are, indeed, in a haunted place. That's one simple explanation. Another is that every character is mirrored by another in the past (Jack and Delbert Grady, Jack Torrance and his ancestors). Call it a shadow. Kubrick is suggesting the murder never goes away and it follows from one generation to another. This would fit in with the suggestion that the Overlook is a metaphor for the United States. Kubrick is basically saying 'there has always been murder in this Land, it's built on murder and genocide. It may shine and sparkle like the Gold Room, but the river of blood is the hidden horror.

  5. Yes, thanks for bringing all these details together. I am sure a few props were moved, removed, or added to change the look of the shot. I also see a few items moving that may be giving direct clues like the ceiling light in the bedroom. When it is shown it is always directly above someone's head. Not sure what to make of it. Perhaps whoever it is spotting share a particular aspect?

    I am just as certain that these are not the reason behind every one. Remember that the sets were kept in place for the duration of the shoot. Scenes were shot and completed in order. So, one particular scene would have been wrapped up in less than a few weeks. There would be no reason to dismantle a set and then pull props out of storage and rebuild a set and arrange all these props later using polaroid stills, thus no reason for this many props to move. If something disappears or moves, someone moved it, sometime over a short period. For example, the magazines on the bottom of the nightstand. They not only moved, they are different magazines. It wasn't just the magazines that moved either, every single thing moved (first pair of pics, look at the top, lamp moved to center, smokes angled differently, magazines, etc). The magazines, in particular the ones on the bottom would never be noticed while watching in the theater and only a hardcore researcher working scene by scene would ever discover these. I suspect the changes were supposed to be subtle and add to the disorienting feeling of the Overlook (on a subconscious level). They were certainly subtle. I had seen this movie perhaps 15 times before ever reading about any "continuity errors" and frankly, the only one I ever noticed at that point was Danny's sammich, and that one was a bright white glaringly obvious one. I chalk that up to SK wanting to keep Danny sane and not use his other subtle powers of manipulation (repetition/boredom) to achieve a goal. Notice that besides the obvious sandwich (I still didn't notice this myself until later in life) there are no obvious "errors", at least anything that 99% of viewers would notice, especially when they probably have their mind on much more pressing issues than prop details while watching a movie like this.

  9. Blackcore Edge Max While it can be tempting to power your way through your workouts and to use maximum speed to do your repetitions, don't do it! Doing each exercise movement slowly gives you superior results, even if it requires using lighter weight loads in the process. The "up" and "down" motion of each rep should take between five and 10 seconds, which means the full rep should take between 10 and 20 seconds.
