It’s not often The Shining meets Tony the Tiger meets The Grinch meets hipster drum solos, but this week, they all do meet up for a delicious hot cocoa and a rockin’ sing-along around the fire at a 1940’s Timberline Lodge.
And, that, my friends, is where Raider/Contributor Phil Oppenheim takes over…
Picture the Timberline Lodge in December, with its famous drifting snowbank reaching up to the second story windows.
The Overlook Film Festival is about to begin (April 27-30) at Timberline Lodge, on the flanks of Mount Hood. The lodge exterior stood in for the fictitious “Overlook Hotel” in Kubrick’s ’80’s classic horror movie, “The Shining“, and has drawn fans from all over the world to see the impressive pre-WWII 1930’s building.
