Visible crew/equipment: In the lead-in to the movie, as it is showing the aerial shots from the helicopter, at one point you can actually see the shadow of the helicopter in the bottom right hand corner.
Visible crew/equipment: When the cook shows Danny his car, the camera moves down the length of the car. When it reaches the large tail you can see the crew reflected in the side panel. (00:40:30)
Trivia: The hotel used for The Overlook in this film is the very hotel that Stephen King stayed in (in Estes Park, Colorado) that spooked him and inspired the novel 'The Shining'. The DVD commentary informs us that King reasoned that there was no better building to portray The Overlook than the one it was originally based upon.
Danny Torrance: Just like pictures in a book.
Wendy Torrance: Well, at least you got plenty to eat in there, Jack.
Jack Torrance: Women, can't live with them, can't kill them.
Delbert Grady: Can't you sir?
