More from Stanley Kubrick
"The great nations have always acted like gangsters, and the small nations like prostitutes."
"I'm not interested in making films that are politically correct. I'm interested in making films that are true to human nature, however ugly that may be."
"I think that the greatest works of art are the ones that are the most ambiguous, that can be interpreted in many different ways."
"I never learned anything at all in school and didn't read a book for pleasure until I was 19 years old."
"I've always been interested in the dark side of things."
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.
