That's the thing right there. The movie ISN'T the book. People who have read the book get all attached to the book as what "really" happened, and lose sight of the fact that both the film and the novel are works of art.
The Shining is one of the best films of all times. You really can't say that The Shining is one of the best novels of all times. Same with 2001.
