Stanley Kubrick: a biography
Stanley Kubrick is a well known American director, screenwriter, producer and one of the most influential cinematographers of the XX century.
The features of his films are specific close ups, unusual panning, unusual use of classical music.
Stanley Kubrick was born in New York in the summer of 1928.
His ancestors are Jews from the Austro Hungarian Empire.
Father Jacob Kubrick was originally from Eastern Galicia, by profession he was a surgeon.
Her mother's name was Gertrude Perveler, she was originally from Bukovina, she was a housewife.
Stanley grew up in the Bronx.
The Kubricks were not religious, despite the fact that Gertrude and Jacob were married according to Jewish customs.
His father taught his sons to play chess when he was twelve years old, and since then Stanley has become almost obsessed with this game.
As a high school student, he became interested in music and even dreamed of becoming a jazz musician.
His mother and father gave him freedom, so Stanley always did what interested him.
From 1941 to 1945, the future cinematographer studied at the secondary school named after William Howard Taft.
He did not study very well at school, so he did not manage to go to college after graduation.
He says that he was not interested in anything at school.
In 1946, Kubrick began attending evening classes at a local college, but soon dropped out and began looking for work.
In 1946, Look magazine took him to work as a photographer, soon he became a staff photographer for the magazine.
Thanks to this work, Stanley traveled all over the country.
Traveling awakened in him a craving for knowledge.
The young man also worked part time, playing chess in various chess clubs in Manhattan.
Stanley Kubrick began his career in cinematography in 1951.
His first film was the documentary short film "The Day of the Fight" about the boxer Walter Cartier.
The work was successful, and Kubrick began shooting several more films.
In 1953, he released the first feature film "Fear and Desire".
In 1955, the film "The Killer's Kiss" was released, which was positively evaluated by critics.
However, success came to him after the release of the drama "Paths of Glory" (1957) with Kirk Douglas in the title role.
The film, which tells about the events of the First World War, became scandalous, it was even banned from showing in France.
In 1960, the actor Kirk Douglas, who was the executive producer of the film "Spartacus", invited Stanley to take the place of the dismissed director, hoping that the young one would be more obedient.
But Kubrick immediately replaced the actress playing the main role, and shot the film the way he wanted.
At the box office, the film received 4 Academy Awards.
The next was the melodrama "Lolita" (1962).
The film was a nominee of seven awards.
World fame was waiting for Stanley Kubrick after "Space Odyssey 2001", which won the Academy Award as the film with the best special effects.
The film "A Clockwork Orange" (1971), based on the novel of the same name by Anthony Burgess, became truly sensational.
The film was banned in the UK due to the fact that there was a lot of sex and violence.
In 1975, Kubrick directed the drama "Barry Lyndon".
The film about an Irish guy who killed an officer of the British army was repeatedly nominated for an Oscar.
In 1980, the next successful picture was released - "Radiance".
In it, the main role was played by actor Jack Nicholson.
In 1997, Kubrick began working on the drama "With Eyes Wide Closed", where actors Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman, who were married at that time, played.
This film is his last work.
Personal life Stanley Kubrick was married three times.
He met his first wife when he worked at Look magazine.
In 1948, the young people got married, but their marriage did not last long.
The second wife of the director was the American ballerina and actress Ruth Sobotka.
They met on the set of the movie "Killer's Kiss", where Ruth played the role of a dancer.
But he soon divorced her, too.
Kubrick met his third wife, the German singer Christina Harlan, during the filming of the film "Paths of Glory": Christina sang in this film.
The couple married in 1958.
At that time, Harlan already had a daughter.
Soon the couple had two more daughters, whom they named Vivian and Anna.
In 2009, Anna died of cancer.
And Vivian became interested in Scientology, having stopped communicating with her family.
Stanley Kubrick did not like to talk about his personal life, so there were more rumors and myths about him than the truth.
Death On March 7, 1999, four days after the editing of the film "With Eyes Wide Closed" was completed, the director died in his sleep from a heart attack.
The talented director was buried in Hertfordshire (England).
Kubrick still has unrealized projects.
For thirty years, he collected materials in order to make a film about Napoleon Bonaparte, after his death there was a large library, which has 18 thousand volumes about Napoleon.
In 2001, director Steven Spielberg shot the fantastic drama "Artificial Intelligence", thereby realizing Stanley's long standing dream: the first shots of the film were shot by Kubrick himself.
Filmography "Radiance" "Lolita" "Killer's Kiss" "Flying Padre" "Fear and Lust" "Clockwork Orange" "Barry Lyndon" "Spartacus" "With eyes wide Closed""Destination"
