More from Stanley Kubrick
"One of the most important things in life is to be able to laugh at yourself."
"What I'm trying to do is make films that are a little bit ahead of their time, that will still be relevant in twenty or thirty years."
"The very nature of the film medium demands that the director be a kind of dictator. You have to be."
"All my life I've always spoiled the things that meant the most to me."
"The great nations have always acted like gangsters, and the small nations like prostitutes."
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.
