nach dem gleichnamigen Roman von Stephen King (1977)
King liess 1997 „The Shining“ für’s Fernsehen in einer Mini-Serie von Regisseur Mick Garris (der auch andere Stoffe von King verfilmte) neu inszenieren.
Kapitel 17
Danny is being examined by Dr. Bill Edmonds. He's getting an electroencephalograph or EEG to test him for epilepsy.
Dr. Edmonds asks him if he sees flashing lights, or hears funny noises, or smells anything unusual, or feels sad or bad before he has his visions. Danny says he doesn't.
After the EEG, Dr. Bill tells Danny he probably doesn't have epilepsy.
He wants to talk to him alone, about Tony. Danny says, "He's just an invisible friend. […] I made him up. to keep me company" (17.52).
Doctor Edmonds says he knows that's what Danny tells his parents. He promises not to tell them, if he tells him the truth. Danny says he isn't sure who Tony is. He knows he's at least eleven, maybe much older. Tony is always a little too far away for Danny to see him well. When Tony comes, Danny goes with him and Tony shows him things.
