Extended Cut of ‘The Shining’ to Get Theatrical Release This Halloween?

If this is true, I’ll be first in line. But I find it hard to believe Kubrick’s estate would allow even a frame of film to be altered, let alone restore 24 minutes of footage.

Update: Ah, I get it now. It’s “extended” from the perspective of Europeans, who for some reason saw a version of the film that was 24 minutes shorter than in the U.S.
