Made in close cooperation with Jan Harlan, Christiane Kubrick and The Stanley Kubrick Estate, this book analyses the making of every movie from Killer’s Kiss to Eyes Wide Shut. Kubrick’s films are nothing short of superb visual experiences; big screen storytelling at its very best. Featuring film stills, previously unseen Kubrick material, posters, set designs, props, screenplays, and shooting schedules, this richly illustrated book offers unprecedented access to the director at work.
In 1968, when Stanley Kubrick was asked to comment on the metaphysical significance of 2001: A Space Odyssey, he replied: Its not a message I ever intended to convey in words. 2001 is a nonverbal experience I tried to create a visual experience, one that directly penetrates the subconscious with an emotional and philosophic content.
Now available as part of our Bibliotheca Universalis series, The Stanley Kubrick Archives borrows from the directors philosophy. From the opening sequence of Killers Kiss to the final frames of Eyes Wide Shut, it allows the masterful visuals of Kubricks films to impress through a sequence of compelling, mesmerizing stills. We uncover Kubricks creative process through fascinating archival material, including set designs, sketches, correspondence, documents, screenplays, drafts, notes, and shooting schedules.
Accompanying the visual and archival material are essays by noted Kubrick scholars, articles written by and about Kubrick, and a selection of Kubricks best interviews. The result is a visual, archival, and scholarly journey through masterworks of 20th-century cinema and the meticulous mind of the director behind them.
