biography
Stanley Kubrick Stanley Kubrick
The famous American and British director, screenwriter, producer, cameraman, editor.
He was born on July 26, 1928 in New York, in a family of Jews from Eastern Europe.
I studied at the secondary school, but then I made up for lost time: I played chess almost professionally, read incredibly much.
After giving up his childhood dream of a career as a jazz drummer, he became interested in photography and by the end of the 1940s became one of the best photojournalists for Look magazine.
Stanley attended classes at Columbia University as a freelancer, without missing a single film program at the Museum of Modern Art, and earned a living by playing chess for money.
In 1951, he made his film debut with the documentary short film "The Day of the Fight" - about the boxer Walter Cartier, who was once the hero of one of Kubrick's photo reports.
In 1953, he debuted with the feature film "Fear and Desire", shot for the RKO company with money borrowed from friends.
In 1954, together with producer James B. Harris, he organized his own film company and a year later released a low budget film "The Killer's Kiss", where he again acted as a producer, screenwriter, cameraman and editor.
Kubrick's tough, pessimistic and exciting film "Murder" (1956) went well at the box office and was liked by critics.
Nevertheless, Kubrick's first film that caused an international resonance was still "Paths of Glory" (1957) — a military drama about how the French infantry died due to the incompetence of commanders on the fronts of the First World War.
In France, the tape was banned, and spontaneous protest demonstrations of reserve officers took place in neighboring Belgium.
This was the first, but not the last scandal in Kubrick's career.
In 1961, Stanley Kubrick moved to England.
Not fitting into the Hollywood system of standards, Kubrick physically distanced himself from it.
It is considered that the "real Kubrick" began with "Spartak" (1960).
In 1962, the director made an attempt on the scandalous novel by Vladimir Nabokov "Lolita".
The inevitable correction of the image of the main character due to censorship considerations softened Nabokov's accents and intonations, and critics who had previously accused him of cynicism began to talk about Kubrick's penchant for "black humor".
According to modern Western ideas, Kubrick's main films remain the anti war satire " Doctor Strangelove, or How I Stopped being Afraid and Fell in Love with the Atomic Bomb "(1964)," 2001: A Space Odyssey "(1968) and" A Clockwork Orange " (1971).
The grandiose fantasy epic "Space Odyssey 2001" won the Academy Award for the use of special effects and combined shooting and became the standard of a science fiction film.
After that, it was possible not to shoot anything, resting on his laurels, but Kubrick successfully coped with both" A Clockwork Orange "based on the novel by Burgess, and with" The Shining " based on the novel by King.
A special place in the work of this director is occupied by film adaptations.
All of Kubrick's full length films are film adaptations, where the director acts not as a middle link between the writer and the potential viewer, but as a full fledged author.
It was thanks to him that Arthur C. Clarke became one of the living classics of science fiction, and Anthony Burgess now seems to be remembered exclusively for the film adaptation of A Clockwork Orange.
In 1975, Stanley Kubrick adapts the novel by William Thackeray "Barry Lyndon" — this most "simple" film of the director receives the largest number of Oscar nominations.
Two weeks before the premiere of "The Shining", which was supposed to take place in the States on May 23, 1980, Kubrick was still making changes to the film.
The only yardstick for Kubrick was himself, and he considered it necessary to bring each of his opuses to perfection.
After that, there was an "All Metal Shell" - the film was released after Stone's "Platoon" and comparisons could not be avoided.
The reviews were different, mostly enthusiastic.
Those who compared these two tapes found that the "All Metal Shell" is another, darker side of Oliver Stone's humanistic memories.
After the director almost died during a flight in 1958 due to technical malfunctions of the plane he was piloting, he decided never to fly again.
By the will of fate, Kubrick remained to live in England.
Stanley didnot even come to California for his parents ' funeral in 1985.
He was more than fifteen kilometers away from his own home only when he started shooting the next one.
But at the same time, everyone who worked in his team had a mandatory condition: filming takes place exclusively in England, scenery of any complexity is made in England, nature, even exotic, is found only in England.
So, the picture "All metal shell" about the Vietnam War was shot in a remote Beckton, a suburb of London, and the African desert from the film "Space Odyssey 2001" — in the dunes of the coastal area of Liverpool.
On March 7, 1999, in Hertfordshire, four days after finishing work on the installation of "Eyes Wide Closed", Stanley Kubrick died of a heart attack in his sleep.
He was buried behind his favorite tree in the estate of Childwick Bury, Hertfordshire, United Kingdom.
The greatest number of rumors and rumors are associated with this farewell work of the director.
Kubrick acquired the rights to the film adaptation of the story "Traumnovelle" by the Austrian writer Arthur Schnitzler back in 1968 and was preparing for filming for 30 years.
Opinions about this tape have diverged dramatically from "a completely incomprehensible drama" to "the last masterpiece of the twentieth century".

For me, not everything is so unambiguous in Kubrick's genius, as Pavel believes.
I would note "Murder" as a very strong (on the border of genius) movie.
But the "Space Odyssey" is already beyond the limit.... read more>>
