Stanley Kubrick’s classic 1980 horror film The Shining is the subject of a new documentary titled Shine On: The Forgotten Shining Location.

The news comes from Indiewire, which reports that the film is “certified by the Stanley Kubrick Film Archive and family estate,” and it is said to “capture the location scouting and making of the art direction for the Overlook Hotel at Elstree Studios.”

Michael Sheen narrates the doc, “which includes interviews with The Shining executive producer Jan Harlan, art director Les Tomkins, and Kubrick’s daughter Katharina Kubrick, who worked as a location researcher on the film.”

The people involved will share their memories of the production and will also revisit the iconic studio locations.

The film was written and directed by Paul King, who said in a statement, “There have been so many rumors about some of the sets from The Shining still existing at Elstree Studios, but to actually find them and walk around them was like discovering a holy grail of film history.”

Katharina Kubrick added, “The production of The Shining has been well documented and analyzed, but this is a story which has never been told. Pivotal scenes from the film took place in these areas, so going back to them felt like stepping into the movie itself.”

The documentary’s trailer will be released on Friday, so stay tuned for that!
