"The only thing that is constant is change."
"The great problem with people is that they don't know what they want."
"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."
"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.
