Grabbed his glasses. Masonic symbolism.

"Do a better job on the wings." Coolest and most profound and funny and poetic and inspiring piece of advice ever ? :)

kubrick was on the moon

DW Griffiths made the most white supremacist racist film ever called Birth of A Nation praising the KKK and dehumanising black Americans

It would appear he was a very thoughtful and intelligent person that not everyone can or could appreciate.

This voice is cooler than HAL

This acceptance speech video probably took 225 shots and took 9 hours to make.

Մտքով գնացիիիի հասա իմ սիրելի Վարդաբլուր գյուղը😭😭😭

⁠LMFAO brilliant brilliant Stanley is and always will be a DaVinci Michael Angelo Picasso Shakespeare etc 💯👑❤️

Unfortunately Stanley was in declining health when he filmed Eyes Wide Shut I believe the film set the record for the most retakes in a Kubrick film everyone knows this is pure exhaustion eighteen hour days were typical for him and cast members and for The Shining the lead actress suffered a nervous breakdown and her hair fell out . He was a homebody and NEVER left the UK all was done in UK film studios such a shame he died so young he worked himself to death and even before doing so he is one of THE GREATEST and highest IQ film directors of all time Orson Welles probably being his only equal . 💯💯👑👑

Իմ հրաշք ծննդավայր որքան եմ կարոտում քեզ ❤❤❤❤❤😊😊❤❤❤❤❤

he died not too long after EWS was made.

He’s implying then that DW Griffith’s life and career was overall a disaster

Kubrick is a god and it’s heartbreaking that he really did go before his time

Best version ever 🙏

The Miles Davis of film making

Stanley Kubrick was literally, without question--one of the greatest filmmakers ever to live, to even pick up a camera. He should've garnered an Oscar every time the man so much as made a movie. He pretty much did get a nomination every time he made anything. When he so much as took a s--t. Well-deserved here. I expected them to give it to him for his swan song effort, EYES WIDE SHUT. You know, the posthumous win. Like the old joke about the gut that dies the day he won the lottery. Hey, Stanley deserved this Oscar. He deserved it every time he made a movie. Check out the visuals for 2001. They were breathtaking. They still are. The whole film was. Special-effects tend to look really dated rather quickly. Not the effects here. They still hold up. They still have a trippy sort of awe-inspiring majesty to them. Once again--like the whole film. Look, the Oscars are overrated. Even the winners say so. The most overrated ritual in Hollywood. It's all politics. Kubrick was in a class by himself. I say he still is... Look, F-the Oscars. He won Best Filmmaker for everything else. Because he was...

One of the all-time greatest to have anything to do with the practice of cinema... They should have given him an honorary Oscar for his whole damn career... Heh. Another thing Hollywood did wrong. Go figure...

Kubrick was a great filmmaker, one of the greatest, but Griffith made one of the most racist movies ever. For that reason, the year after this the DGA removed his name from the award.

The wisdom in this short dialogue is immense. This man was truly great.

When you grow up, and see the world as it really is, every day is a Kubrick Film.

Perfect speech right there

Bravo Kubrick, for disguising a vignette of his purpose as an acceptance speech. He stands there like a school boy at attention spouting platitudes. Knowing full well, that when he pushes his glasses up, we take note and find a strange comfort. Life allows no edits to its absurd mix of glory, fragility, wealth, loss, love, and deprivation. Just small comforts along the way.

Kubrick is still, the greatest director ever to shit between two shoes. He lived, he died, and he gave us the greatest movies ever made, about one every ten years.

Mr. K was not quite accurate to say that D.W. Griffith was "...for the last 17 years of his life shunned by the industry he had created." Eight years after making his last film in 1931 he was given a six month contract by producer Hal Roach to work at his studio to assist with upcoming productions.

bro was being held at g*npoint

INTJ

🔥💯

I have the video confession of him, for fakinf the moon landing, and he felt really guilty about it, shortly after he gets shot!...

It looks like the cameraman is holding a gun at him while he reads cue cards written by NASA and the CIA

THE BEST VERSION OF CREEP IN THE F* CKING HISTORY

If he had lived into the 2000s, wonder if we'd had gradually gotten more video interviews with him?

The wings of the fortune 5000 computer are made of wax and feather

A titan

Probably no correlation whatsoever between Kubrick referencing the Icarus myth in such a manner to describe Griffith’s career, and his own film in which he pulled the curtain back on the practices of the elite being his final work before taking the ol’ dirtnap almost immediately thereafter 🙄

fuck yeah, stan. legit af forever. art doesnt need to be explained. just observe it and flip out if its good

I just wish Mr Kubrick would hand over the Visual Effects Oscar for 2001 ASO to Douglas Trumbull. Then it may have been a bit easier to get out of your car to go to work.

You can still hear his NYC accent in this interview. Not heavy but it’s there…

aka salman rushdi

THE GOAT!

Never won an Oscar btw

A simple thanks would do Stanley :)

His most famous movie... the Moon Landing, He admits he filmed it on camera

Shame they killed him for exposing their pedoness.

Four decades in England didn't affect his 1940s Bronx Jew accent in the slightest.

This is not how I expected him to sound.

His movies were the kind that he wanted us to watch at least four times to fully grasp so he wouldn't expect us to enjoy them the first time we saw them

His eyes… they are so hauntingly focused and intelligent

He looks like a psychopath
