Yeah! Someone else mentioned this, and I knew it was a bit of a thing. I also know that a lot of the film was shot on location, so I’m curious if the shot was actually flipped, or maybe one of the shots was done on a set, not in the actual fridge. I read/watched some stuff about the intentional discontinuities in The Shining but this one has never been mentioned as far as I know.

In The Shining, when the family is being given a tour of the hotel fairly early in the movie, they get shown the walk in fridge. There is a shot of the door to the fridge from the hallway and then a cut to a shot from the back of the fridge looking toward the door. The hinges are on opposite sides between the two shots. Immersion ruined.
