FILM: Stanley Kubrick: A Life in Pictures
Kubrick made 13 films during his career. He started making black and white films and utilize his mindful eye to capture light on film much like a photographer.
Sure I’d seen films of his like Clockwork Orange (1971) and Eyes Wide Shut (1999), and even The Shining (1980). I don’t think I paid much attention to them. It’s only after understanding where an artist or in this case, a director, is coming from can you really appreciate the project. That’s part of the reason why I consider myself a student of film and music. It’s like a lifelong game of connect-the-dots.
Now I’m set to watch his early films like Dr. Strangelove (1964), Lolita (1962), and Paths of Glory (1957).
