More from Stanley Kubrick
"I don't think there's any such thing as a perfect film. It's an impossibility."
"I don't like to talk about my films. I like to let them speak for themselves."
"I'm not interested in making films that are politically correct. I'm interested in making films that are honest, and that reflect the truth, even if it's an uncomfortable truth."
"I think the big mistake in schools is to try to teach children to be like adults."
"The purpose of art is to make you think, to make you feel, to make you question the world around you."
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.
