A Critical Companion to Stanley Kubrick, Hardback Book

A Critical Companion to Stanley Kubrick Hardback

Edited by Elsa Colombani

Part of the Critical Companions to Contemporary Directors series

Hardback

Description

A Critical Companion to Stanley Kubrick offers a thorough and detailed study of the works of Stanley Kubrick.

Labeled a recluse, a provocateur, and a perfectionist, Kubrick remains one of the greatest legends of cinema who continues to influence contemporary filmmakers and visual culture.

An unequaled visionary, Kubrick revolutionized film genres, the use of music in film, narrative pacing and structure, and depictions of war and violence.

This book delves into the complexities of his work and examines the wide range of topics and the multiple interpretations that his films inspire.

The eighteen chapters in this book use different methodologies, explore new trends of research in film studies, providing a series of unique and novel perspectives on all of Kubrick's thirteen feature films, from Fear and Desire (1953) to Eyes Wide Shut (1999), as well as his work on A.I.

Artificial Intelligence (Steven Spielberg, 2001).
