from taschen.de:
Part 1: The films
In 1968, when Stanley Kubrick was asked to comment on the metaphysical significance of 2001: A Space Odyssey, he replied: “It’s not a message I ever intended to convey in words. 2001 is a nonverbal experience…. I tried to create a visual experience, one that bypasses verbalized pigeonholing and directly penetrates the subconscious with an emotional and philosophic content.” The philosophy behind Part I borrows from this line of thinking: from the opening sequence of Killer’s Kiss to the final frames of Eyes Wide Shut, Kubrick’s complete films will be presented chronologically and wordlessly via frame enlargements. A completely nonverbal experience.
Part 2: The Creative Process
Divided into chapters chronologically by film, Part 2 brings to life the creative process of Kubrick’s filmmaking by presenting a remarkable collection of material from his archives, including photographs, props, posters, artwork, set designs, sketches, correspondence, documents, screenplays, drafts, notes, and shooting schedules. Accompanying the visual material are essays by noted Kubrick scholars, articles written by and about Kubrick, and a selection of Kubrick’s best interviews.

But 200 schmackas are just to much to throw away before actually seeing a sample. I am sort of a fan, but not that much of one. (Otha Star may though. )Last edited by editman; 02-12-2005 at 08:30 PM.

Alas, I'm not quite rich and famous enough for that. 200 big ones would by buy my daughter alota pair o' shoes.
I might have to spend a few hours at Barnes and Noble when it comes out though....
Still no mention of Fear and Desire.
Other than to see every film, is Fear and Desire worth checking out?

And then, there are those 3 short docos Kubrick made.Last edited by editman; 02-12-2005 at 11:43 PM.
