Stanley Kubrick originally wanted approximately seventy takes of the scene where Dick Hallorann (Scatman Crothers) gets killed by Jack Torrance, but Jack Nicholson talked Kubrick into going easy on the sixty-nine-year-old Crothers, and stopping after forty. At one point during the filming, Crothers became so exasperated with Kubrick's notorious, compulsive style of excessive retakes that he broke down and cried, asking "What do you want, Mr. Kubrick?"
