I saw this documentary as part of a double-feature where the Shining played right after. Really interesting dissection of the film. This doc looks at the many theories behind it. They go from the absurd to the, "well, he may be on to something." Director splices dialog with other popular cinema making the film more comical than I thought it would be. Really made me pay more attention to everything in the Shining. Would definitely recommend a viewing of the film following this documentary.
Pros great story
Cons slow
Yes, I recommend this movie.
