Hello Mr. Huxley.?
 
 AH> You know, I really hope that the made for TV 
 AH> version of The Shining becomes available for those 
 AH> of us who have scorned that particular media. I 
 AH> don't as a rule watch the Boob tube, exept for the 
 AH> NBA finals. Anyhow, I only caught
 AH> bits and pieces of the show, is it any good?
 AH> Who do they have playing Jack's part? (and can he 
 AH> rival Nicholson's POSSESED performance in the 
 AH> Kubrick film?)
The tv movie is a faithful adaptain of the novel...the teleplay was scripted 
by Stephen King himself and he has a cameo in this one as well. I like the tv 
mini-series and I do like the Stanley Kubrick film too! :)
 
Steven Weber (of Wings) plays Jack Torrance. He's no Jack Nicholson, but he 
did a fab job of the role! Rebecca DeMornay (Three Musketeers) was fab as the 
wife and it was a fine performance by her too! :) 
 
 AH> Still fighting the Flood in Grand Forks....
I hope you win! :)
