More from Stanley Kubrick
"Perhaps it's a good thing that we are not always able to understand the things we create."
"The condition of man is to be in a state of perpetual struggle, and it is through this struggle that he finds his identity."
"The difference between a good film and a bad film is that a good film is never finished, and a bad film is never started."
"The most terrifying fact about the universe is not that it is hostile but that it is indifferent; but if we can come to terms with this indifference, then our existence as a species can be meaningful."
"The great problem with people is that they believe they have to be in love to be happy. They don’t. They have to be in love to reproduce."
About Stanley Kubrick (1928-1999)
American filmmaker (2001: A Space Odyssey, Dr. Strangelove, The Shining) whose perfectionist year-long shoots and 100-take method redefined auteurist cinema. Closely associated with Orson Welles (auteur predecessor and Citizen Kane director) and Steven Spielberg (younger collaborator (A.I. Artificial Intelligence)). For an intellectual contrast, see Quentin Tarantino, postmodern American filmmaker — Kubrick's films erase influences into singular monolithic vision; Tarantino's foreground every reference as a deliberate tribute. The two opposite ways auteurist cinema can be made.
