Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. 'Now come on, Tony! Don't be silly.'

Answer: Wendy

Wendy asks Danny how Tony feels about going to the hotel and Tony says he doesn't want to go. This is her response, with really strange intonation.

2. 'For some people...solitude, isolation, can in itself become a problem.'

Answer: Mr. Ullman

Jack insists that isolation won't be a problem for him.

3. 'Well, it was just one of those things. Purely an accident.'

Answer: Wendy

As she begins to explain to the doctor how Danny managed to dislocate his shoulder. She is such the typical wife of an abusive alcoholic - permitting and forgiving.

4. 'You mean they ate each other up?'

Answer: Danny

Danny asks for clarification on what cannibalism is.

5. 'See? It's okay. He saw it on the television.'

Answer: Jack

I've heard analyses of the film that claim it's all a critique of American TV. Part of how they support this is the fact that many of Jack's lines after being locked in the storage room are lines from popular television shows. Unfortunately for the analysis, some of those lines were adlibbed, so couldn't have been part of Kubrick's premeditated intentions.

6. 'Oh, this old place has had an illustrious past. In it's heyday, it was one of the stopping places for the jet-set, even before anybody knew what the jet-set was.'

Answer: Mr. Ullman

Mr. Ullman explains about the hotel during the grand tour. He insists it's seen 'all the best people.'

7. 'Dan... Did you get tired of bombing the universe?'

Answer: Jack

This is one of the few points in the movie where Kubrick seems to be making an attempt to establish a loving relationship between Danny and his father.

8. 'How'd you like some ice cream, Doc?'

Answer: Dick

Dick shines this question to Danny when he's showing Wendy the storage room.

9. 'I'm not a-s'posed to.'

Answer: Danny

This is in response to Dick thinking he doesn't want to talk about shining. Then he says one of my favorite lines in the film, 'Tony is the little boy who lives in my mouth.'

10. 'Nothin'. There ain't nothin' in room 237. But you ain't got no business goin' in there anyway, so stay out. You understand? Stay out!'

Answer: Dick

Dick's final warning to Danny after their talk over ice cream.
