One of the best endings to a suspenseful film was ‘The Shining’. Jack Torrance, played by the incredible Jack Nicholson, goes coo-coo while taking care of the ‘supposedly’ empty Overlook Hotel. As the camera pans in to old black and white photos in the lobby, we see one that’s marked, ‘Overlook Hotel July 4th Ball 1921’. A closer look shows Jack has somehow been transformed back to 1921, appearing in the photo. Well Yahoo reported recently that the photo was taken from the BBC Hulton Archive and later Getty Images purchased it. What’s also interesting is that it wasn’t taken during a July 4th Ball, but instead, was snapped during a Valentine’s Day Dance in 1921. To this day, it’s still one of the best endings to a horror film~
