"Violence is one of the most dramatic forms of human interaction."
"The very meaning of life is suffering. We are born to suffer, to suffer to help others to suffer."
"The only way to deal with the insane is to become insane yourself."
"I'm not interested in making films that are easy to categorize. I want to make films that defy categorization."
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.
