Stuff About Stanley Kubrick
by Chris Higgins - July 31, 2007 - 7:36 AM

Stanley KubrickI’m a Kubrick fan (isn’t everyone?), and I continue to find amazing, sometimes bizarre, Kubrickian content on the web.

The nice folks at Coudal Partners share my interest in Kubrick, but have gone to the trouble of compiling a page linking to tons of fascinating stuff: Stuff About Stanley Kubrick.

Here are some of my favorites (warning: some of this is highly geeky):

Film of SK at the 1968 premiere of 2001: A Space Oddyssey. I believe this is the same night that a sweet printed program was distributed to the audience. jc-01.08.07

David points us to Michael Beirut’s essay “Stanley Kubrick and the Future of Graphic Design”. jc-10.17.05

Two Special Lenses for Barry Lyndon or “How the stringent demands of a purist-perfectionist film-maker led to the development of two valuable new cinematographic tools.” A great first-hand film tech piece.

And there are pages and pages more!

  1. I like a few of Kubrick’s early films (Sparticus, Lolita), but from the late 60’s on he got a little too strange for me.

    I often wonder if we wasn’t on the wrong side of the camera. With those eyes, he could have taken work as a character actor in the mold of Peter Lorre.

  2. I have never understood most people’s facination with Kubrick. I think his movies are boring. Just saying, not everyone’s a fan.
