From: Sarah Leventer Boston University <[email protected]> I've heard anecdotally that Kubrick had his crew watch Rosemary's Baby and Eraserhead before working on The Shining, but I'm having trouble finding an actual source to substantiate that claim--does anyone know where/if Kubrick may have said this? Or if others (i.e. biographers or Lynch) have made this claim? I know Lynch discusses Kubrick and Eraserhead in Catching the Big Fish, and Kubrick mentions liking Rosemary's Baby in interviews with Michel Ciment, but I haven't found an instance where he discusses both films, or having The Shining production crew watch them. Thank you so much for your help! --
