All Ends Well That Ends With a Smile10 of 22
Jack Nicholson again... the hotel has always been an integral part of Jack Torrance's evolution: all work and no play drove him crazy, the ghosts of the past taunted him into killing his family, he stated his presence by demolishing the door with an ax and he was ultimately defeated by the hedge maze. And while his body is frozen somewhere with a creepy lifeless look, the last picture shows a Jack with a dashing smile, surrounded by his friends... in 1921. He and the Hotel finally made one, and its reconforting to see him belonging to the past, yet feeling so oddly and scarily 'present'.
