Description

Stanley Kubrick: An Odyssey is a comprehensive and in-depth biography that fills the gap in Kubrick's life since the last full-length biography over twenty years ago. Drawing on access to the latest research, including Kubrick's archive at the University of the Arts, London, and new interviews with family members and those who worked with him, this book offers a detailed and nuanced exploration of Kubrick's personal, private, public, and working life. The biography delves not only into the making of his films, but also into those projects he wanted to undertake but ultimately failed to complete, such as Burning Secret, Napoleon, Aryan Papers, and A.I. By examining Kubrick's life beyond his film career, this book aims to dispel some of the myths surrounding this enigmatic filmmaker, who created some of the most significant works of art of the twentieth century. Through this biography, readers will gain a deeper understanding of Kubrick's life and work, and discover new insights into the man behind the films that continue to captivate audiences today.
