Mike Flanagan's adaptation of Doctor Sleep manages to bridge the gap between Stephen King's novel and Stanley Kubrick's film, honoring both while creating a cohesive narrative that resonates with fans of both works.
Doctor Sleep's success lies in Flanagan's ability to intertwine the themes of trauma and recovery, using Danny Torrance's journey from childhood to adulthood to explore how past experiences shape one's present.
By retaining King’s emotional depth while incorporating Kubrick’s iconic imagery, Doctor Sleep serves as a unique homage that both satisfies literary enthusiasts and cinematic audiences alike.
