More from Stanley Kubrick
"The great nations have always acted like gangsters, and the small nations like prostitutes."
"I think the big mistake in schools is to try to teach children to be like adults."
"No. To see a film once and write a review is an absurdity. Yet very few critics ever see a film twice or write about films from a leisurely, thoughtful perspective."
"Perhaps it's a good thing that I'm not very social, because I don't think I could stand the company of most living people."
"I think that the greatest works of art are the ones that are the most ambiguous, that can be interpreted in many different ways."
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.
