Men hvad der egentlig foregik og som er endnu mere herligt fascinerende ved alt dette er, at Kubrick forfalskede filmatiseringen af Kings roman for at afsløre, hvad han gennemgik med filmatiseringen af Apollo 11.
And it should have. But what was really going on and what is just much more deliciously fascinating about all of this is that, in fact, Kubrick was faking the making of the Stephen King novel in order to reveal the idea of what he went through to do the Apollo moon footage.
