Kubrick's Original Hopeful Ending to The Shining
Kubrick had another ending for the film that he cut out at the last minute after the movie had opened up in limited theaters. Two minutes of footage showing that Danny and Wendy were going to be alright were cut from the film.
The filmmaker sent assistants out to theaters and ordered the projectionists to send all the reels back to Warner Bros. studio to make sure none of the cuts of the original version would remain in existence, they were all destroyed. As far as we know the footage is lost.
The final four pages of the script are available at this site, along with some stills from the set.
