Stanley Kubrick


Stanley Kubrick 
Host: Freddy

Freddy's Take: Our first ever Director Day featured Stanley Kubrick. I chose him due to my want to get a better understanding of 2001: A Space Odyssey and watching it with friends and doing some research on it was a great benefit. I really enjoy the way that Kubrick was able to add some sly wit to each of his films. Out of the three we watched, A Clockwork Orange was probably my favorite, but I was really taken with Dr. Strangelove and the performance by George C. Scott! In addition to these three films, I would also recommend The Shining, Lolita, Full Metal Jacket, and Eyes Wide Shut. I've yet to see Spartacus or Barry Lyndon, but both are on my list to catch up with soon.
