Production still from The Shining. One of several production stills printed in the center of the movie tie-in paperback edition of Stephen King’s novel.
This image is notable in that the shot does not appear in the finished film. Wendy is presumably preparing Jack’s breakfast while she watches Wheel of Fortune on the small television. It is likely that this scene preceded the shot of Wendy rolling the room service cart through the hallway on her way to delivering Jack’s breakfast. She wears the same robe in this image as in that subsequent scene.
Production stills are often selected and distributed before films achieve final cut, which likely explains why this still was disseminated despite the scene having been cut from the finished film.
