The second edition of Mario Falsetto’s extensive analysis of Kubrick’s films carefully examines the filmmaker’s oeuvre in its entirety--from smaller, early films (The Killing) through mid-career masterpieces (Dr. Strangelove; 2001: A Space Odyssey; A Clockwork Orange), later films such as Full Metal Jacket, and his final work, 1999’s Eyes Wide Shut. The author, offering close readings supported by precise shot descriptions, shows us how Kubrick’s body of work represents a stylistically and thematically consistent cinematic vision, one that merges formal experiment

I tried to create a visual experience, one that bypasses verbalized pigeonholing and directly penetrates the subconscious with an emotional and philosophic content. The philosophy behind Part 1 borrows from this line of thinking: f

Born in New York City in 1928, Stanley Kubrick began taking photographs when in high school. At sixteen, he sent a photograph he took of a newsstand after President Roosevelt?s death to Look Magazine. The publication of the photograph marked the beginning of Kubrick?s work for the magazine, which lasted until 1950, when Kubrick made his first 16mm documentary film. During those five years Kubrick completed dozens of photographic reportage assignments in New York City as well as abroad. The resulting thousands of negatives have remained in the archives of Look Magazine ever since. Kubrick?s pho

Acclaimed in an international critics poll as one of the ten best films ever made, Stanley Kubrick’s "2001: A Space Odyssey" has nonetheless baffled critics and filmgoers alike. Its reputation rests largely on its awesome special effects, yet the plot has been considered unfathomable. True, isolated symbols have been recognized, but the critical consensus has been that "2001" cannot be explained and that Kubrick himself probably didn’t know the answers. Leonard Wheat’s "Kubrick’s 2001: A Triple Allegory" reveals that Kubrick "did" know the answers. Far from being what i

Paring a novel into a two-hour film is an arduous task for even the best screenwriters and directors. Often the resulting movies are far removed from the novel, sometimes to the point of being unrecognizable. Stanley Kubrick’s adaptations have consistently been among the best Hollywood has to offer. Kubrick’s film adaptations of three novels--Lolita, The Shining and Full Metal Jacket--are analyzed in this work. The primary focus is on the alterations in the characters and narrative structure, with additional attention to style, scope, pace, mood and meaning. Kubrick’s adapta
