Explore the Genius of Stanley Kubrick In a Collection of Documentaries, Conversations, and More1 min read
Reading Time: < 1 minute17 years ago today, we lost perhaps the most influential director in cinema, Stanley Kubrick. There’s no shortage of videos and other materials regarding his meticulous process and the effect his work has had on generations of filmmakers, but while he continues to be a source of inspiration for both them and viewers, there’s also room to learn more. On the anniversary of his death, we have a collection of some of the finest resources.
Leading off with the crown jewels of today’s post, we have a nearly one-hour conversation with his widow Christiane Kubrick, Martin Scorsese, and his long-time producer Jan Harlan. The trio stopped by The Charlie Rose Show back in 2001 to discuss the then-new documentary Stanley Kubrick: A Life in Pictures. Scorsese discusses how he continually looks to Kubrick when he feels stuck, saying, “When you get tired, you say, “˜How can I get better? What can I do?’ You look at that source. You look at that inspiration. You say, “˜Well, Kubrick wouldn’t let it stay this way. He would have changed that angle. He would’ve worked it out. He would’ve tried to figured out getting more time to shoot the scene this way or that way. He would’ve really seen it through to its end.'”
