DOCTOR SLEEP
June 27, 2020  | By David Bianculli

HBO, 8:00 p.m. ET

 
Remember Danny, the little boy in Stanley Kubrick’s film version of Stephen King’s The Shining, who said “Redrum” in a scratchy voice and had a sensory gift known as “the shining”? Well, in this 2019 film adaptation written and directed by Mike Flanagan, based on the King sequel, Danny’s back – as an adult, only slightly less troubled than his possessed dad in the original film. Danny, this time, is played by Ewan McGregor, whose extensive resume already includes having starred in Moulin Rouge, a couple of Star Wars films, and as two very different characters in a season of FX’s Fargo series.
