My favorite film of all time is probably The Shining by Stanley Kubrick, story by Stephen King. The book was different than the film in some ways. Kubrick intentionally changed some little things here and there in order to spill some of his personal secrets that he just couldn't keep secret anymore. So Kubrick put his personal touches on the story re-modeling the story for personal reasons.
Believe it or not, research into the faked Apollo 11 moon footage has led researchers straight to Kubrick. But first, I'd like to express my opinion on the subliminal undertones of the film. After analyzing this film constantly, (I seen it at least 25 times, maybe more) I've come up with this-
The Overlook Hotel represents the extra-terrestrial delegation that has meddled into earthly affairs for a very long time. No one knows how long. There has been several instances during the Eisenhower administration that admitted to several deals made with E.T.'s called project serpo. Read here-

Many believe NASA was created after Alien technology became reverse engineered shortly after Roswell. Anyway, according to Stanley Kubrick, NASA made the USA a super power just because it allowed the US to own all space platforms. Communications satellites, SDI space defense platforms and so forth. Therefore, the main protagonist in the Shining was "Caretaker" of the Overlook hotel. Now--these are all metaphors. NASA is represented by the Overlook hotel, and it is why it was "Built on top of the bones of dead Indians" since the U.S. was in fact founded by the Indians. The rumors are that he was to be hired by the U.S. govt. to film faked moon landing footage on a Hollywood set in order to hide saucer technology from the soviets and take over the space race, and essentially planet Earth. Sounds outlandish but it's not. Who ever controls the satellites controls the planet. So if you're familiar with the story, his job was to keep the hotel heated for the winter. And as caretaker to the Overlook, (U.S.A/NASA) or the main character in the story was instructed to prepare the hotel for the upcoming winter; which was in reality the (Cold War). If these theories are true then it make sense since he just finished filming 2001 at the time. I guess his great special effects must have inspired the plan.
Now, many have wondered about the changes in the movie from the book Most notably, the room change to 217 to 237. Since the Moon was 237,000 miles from Earth that year or time, Kubrick used the room as the metaphor for the Moon movie set, which no one was supposed to enter. He also created dialogue that was never included in Stephen King's book...the character, Chef Hallorann says- "It's like pictures in a book" and "It isn't real" as metaphors for what went on in that room, or (The Hollywood Studio). And of course, we can all remember Danny's Apollo 11 sweater that he wore during the scene where he first approaches the room.
Also, another change in the Kubrick adaptation made me wonder. The previous caretaker of the Overlook, in which Kubrick used the Overlook as the metaphor representing (NASA) was forced to kill his twin daughters and in reality, the (Gemini Program) which was NASA's previous space program before Apollo came along. So caretakers of the E.T sanctioned NASA and U.S scrapped the old tech. (Gemini) for the new. IN the book, the daughters were not twins, and so why did Kubrick change it to twins? Well...to include the metaphor for the Gemini program indeed!
So, no...I'm not angry at Kubrick for changing the novel IF, in fact these theories are true!
Anyone can view the footage and use common sense to determine that this is true. There was no footage of Canyons, mountains, etc..just a room full of cement powder which was filmed on a hollywood lot. Isn't it strange how NASA lost the footage from it's archives? Apparently, with today's computers, anyone can disect the footage to prove its validity. I advise reading those 3 links fully to understand how it was done. Also, some insight into Kubrick's personal life. Kubrick fans usually wonder why he had such a long period of time off between making films. a few academic researchers wondered why Kubrick didn't tear down his 2001 sets immediately after filming 2001. They were kept intact and in an Interview with a friend on the Eyes Wide Shut special features DVD, his former friend or producer indicates that he used to walk the sets every night after filming 2001 and would talk to himself apparently formulating something. The friend in the Interview said Kubrick was just obsessed with the sets and loved them so much that he wanted them preserved for as long as possible, and when they had to tear them down, Kubrick became depressed and the friend said he changed. My take is that he was planning to film the Moon footage and so he walked the sets alone and other reasons made him depressed.
Makes sense given that facts that Kubrick changed after 1969, the time he began to grow his beard and became a hermit meant that something happened to him that really stressed him out. He was basically stagnant in the hollywood business only making one film after wards and then none until the Shining in 1980. Kubrick's last film, "Eyes Wide Shut," was a film about a man who is stalked by a secret society. This movie and story was entirely from Kubrick. Was Kubrick telling a story of his own life? And that the secrets he held caused him to be stalked throughout his life? Possible, quite possible.
If he did film that footage which was definitely bogus in my opinion, then a master director such as Kubrick must have been in charge of it since he was a pioneer to the science fiction boom in the 70's when CGI became advanced. For more info on how he did it, check out this youtube video -

There are many little things in the film that he used as symbols. Some of them I mentioned in the above post and some that I've read about are a bit far fetched but you never know. For instance, in the Kitchen during the Ullman Tour, you would see a stack of "Six 7UP cases of Soda" indicating that Seven Apollo ships went up, and only 6 of them made it to the moon. Also, the famous Kubrick inclusion of "All work and no play." meant that "All" was supposedly A-11 "Apollo 11" work, and so A11 work made Kubrick very depressed and perhaps became so obsessed with his own little inclusions, that he failed to make the movie a proper adaptation of the novel.
So did we in fact go to the moon? I truly believe we did. But I do believe NASA was basically "chased" away from the moon, because it has been visited before.
