Review 4K Movie
Recently, we can observe how the adaptation of Stephen King is rapidly gaining popularity again. One of his most terrifying novels was the story of the ghost hotel Overlook “The Shining”, which left the main question, but how did the life of the protagonist Danny Torrance. And not so long ago, the long-awaited sequel to "Doctor Dream" was published, based on which Michael Flanegan shot the thriller of the same name.
Synopsis 40 years after a nightmare in the ill-fated Overluck hotel, Danny Torrance works as a hospice nurse in the small American town of Fraser, where he is trying to build a quiet, measured life without ghosts from the past and present. However, his gift of radiance again comes to light when Danny establishes a mental connection with a girl like him, Abra, who has become the target of a group of hunters for gifted children and who now needs his help and protection.
Game of Actors In general, Ewan McGregor played a good adult Danny Torrance, although the image embodied by him is different from the image that developed when reading the novel. In the film, Danny Torrance is a middle-aged man who, despite a rather long period of time, cannot get rid of his psychological trauma, a reminder of which he first tried to drown out with alcohol, and then, finding a goal in life, turned his ability for the good of other people. That's who perfectly copied the book image - this is Rebecca Ferguson as the leader of the True Knot Rose-in-Hat, a stunning woman, whose mask of beauty and innocence conceals a cruel and heartless monster.
Directing After watching, in my opinion, the best horror series in the history of the television "Ghosts of a House on a Hill", I realized that Michael Flanegan masterfully gets mystical thrillers. Although, as elsewhere, they also have their flaws, he still tries to build a special atmosphere that combines a horror plot from ghost stories, a hint of psychological drama about a person trying to survive a psychological trauma and, in the case of Doctor Dream , still hints of fantasy with the battle of psychics. Although the film can hardly seem so scary as it was presented in advertising, the director shot it madly, atmosphericly and added the tragedy and necessary cruelty that were missing when reading the novel.
The scenario is paradoxical, but I believe that “The Shining” by Stanley Kubrick, although one of the best horror films in history, still remains not his best adaptation, which violated many of the plot canons of the novel. However, "Doctor Dream", also not the best film adaptation, in terms of the plot completed what was so lacking in a not the best novel (to be honest, the book did not impress me). Of course, the main concept is preserved in the film: 40 years after the event at the Overluck Hotel, Danny Torrance, who recently got rid of alcoholism, works as a nurse in a hospice, where with the help of his gift he helps dying people without pain and suffering to “cross over” ". In parallel, he establishes a secret connection with a girl like him, Abra, who accidentally becomes the main target of a group of psychics vampires, feeding on the radiance of such as Danny and Abra. Abra asks Danny for help, and he realizes that he will have to return to his ghosts not only of the past, but also the ghosts of the Overluck hotel, standing alone in the snowy mountains of Colorado. Although the film does not contain whole pieces that are present in the novel (for example, the film does not explain the reason for the established connection between Danny and Abra), some heroes were replaced by others or were even cut out of the plot canvas, they even brutally kill someone, to some extent, it only went to the film adaptation to the benefit. And a fortunate combination of circumstances in the form of the ending with the surviving Overluck in The Shining by Stanley Kubrick contributed to his return in the film (those who read the novel remember that the hotel burned down). And since the heroes have to return to the hotel, here it is to be expected that they will have to escape not only from psychic vampires, but also ghosts no less dangerous than the main antagonists of the film.
Summary Before viewing, there were many doubts, but after and after some time you are convinced that “Doctor Dream” is a successful adaptation, which was shot as it should, as it should have been in the novel. Although the film does not have that rosy ending as in the novel by Stephen King, but still this drama combined with an unforgettable atmosphere of mysticism determined the success of the film.
