……成为一部精彩的电影——一部电影和剧本都无可争议地跻身史上最伟大之列，却出自一本没有电影大概就不会被人记住的书，这很罕见。我觉得《The Shining》就是一个好例子：书不错，而电影是有史以来最好的恐怖片之一。然而据报道，Stephen King 讨厌 Kubrick 那版电影。作为一个两者都喜欢的人，我只是觉得他……
…become a fantastic film -- it is rare for a film and a screenplay that are inarguably among the greatest of all time to come from a book that would likely not be memorable without the film. I think The Shining is a great example of a good book, while the movie is one of the best horror movies ever made. And yet, reportedly Stephen King hates the Kubrick film. As someone who enjoys both, I simply think he’s…

……在我们人类看来，这极其像是疯了。直到他开始解决宇宙学问题……我总觉得事情的真相应该表现得比现在更模棱两可一些。多一点《闪灵》的味道，少一点《十三号星期五》的套路。我记得最初的设定比电影呈现的强得多，不过小说也许值得一看。
…it looks an awful lot like madness to us humans. Until he starts solving cosmological problems . . I sort of felt like the truth of the matter should have been more ambiguous than was presented. More Shining, less Friday the 13th. I remember the premise being far superior to the film, but maybe the novel is worth a look.
> 库布里克创造的人类心理梦境是如此离奇而精彩。就像库布里克拍了一部费里尼式的电影。当然，《闪灵》证明了库布里克对小说的改编往往与原著大相径庭，但把这种梦境般的效果归功一部分给施尼茨勒（Schnitzler）大概也是合理的——那本小说的名字字面意思就是如此，维基百科上是这么说的……
> It's such a bizarre wonderful dreamworld of the human psyche that Kubrick created. Like if Kubrick made a Fellini film. Of course The Shining shows that what Kubrick makes of a novel is not necessarily what the author made, but it's probably worth giving some credit for the dreamworld to Schnitzler—the novel is literally called, or so Wikipedia…
Stephen King 公开批评过库布里克对《闪灵》的处理，主要是吐槽角色一成不变、过于单薄。虽然我觉得《2001太空漫游》加一堆解释性旁白并不会变好，但我认为《闪灵》如果能……绝对会大有改观。
Stephen King is publicly critical of Kubrick's treatment of "The Shining", mostly about its unchanging and one-dimensional characters. While I expect "2001" would not have been improved by a lot of explanatory voiceovers, I think "The Shining" would be seriously improved by…
