The “Here’s Johnny!” Scene Required Three Days And 60 Doors To Shoot According to Shelley Duvall

JACK NICHOLSON was a firefighter and his skills as a firefighter served him well in Stanley Kubrick's The Shining. In fact, he was so good as a firefighter that in the infamous scene where he chops away at the door to get at Shelley Duvall, Kubrick rigged up a door that would smash away easily with a small bit of work. Nicholson knew how to work an axe and destroyed it in seconds, so Kubrick had to go back and replace the door with a real one.https://ift.tt/2Adl6XF via /r/movies https://ift.tt/2zHAoUm
