"I think the big mistake in schools is trying to teach children anything by using fear as the basic motivation."
"I don't believe in God, but I'm not an atheist. I'm an agnostic. I don't know if there's a God or not, and I don't think anyone else does either."
"The greatest glory in living lies not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall."
"The greatest pleasure in life is doing what people say you cannot do."
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.
