[@newleaf1000]

you need to start making videos again man! only just discovered this channel and every video is a hit. was genuinely disappointed to see the last upload was 3 years again. much love and good work

[@jorgevazquez654]

It's such a shame that a content like this can't get traction. I genuinely loved it.

[@fahimalvi9521]

Stanley Kubrick is one of the greatest director of all time. Each and every shot from his movie is perfection.

[@filmthoughtproject5699]

Agreed. Very few directors have ever achieved what Kubrick achieved. Thanks for watching!

[@PatDK]

Shut up .,,,

[@KMHill]

His uniqueness stems from starting out as an extremely talented and accomplished still photographer. That is why his movies contain so very many great stills within them. His visual compositions are impeccable.

[@filmthoughtproject5699]

Very true. Every shot in a Kubrick film could also be a great piece of photography. He made some of the most visually stunning films of all time.

[@KMHill]

@@filmthoughtproject5699 Many of still are breathtakingly poetic! www.boredpanda.com/vintage-photographs-new-york-street-life-stanley-kubrick/ It is utterly incredible that he such an eye at the age of only 17.

I’ve always noticed this god like perspective in his films. He is like a force of nature, which is basically god as we know it. He’s not main stream nor is he art house: he’s just Kubrick, which in itself is the greatest achievement in cinema ever. Tarkovsky said 2001 was cold, but Kubrick’s mind is simply too transcendent to make a film like Solaris. After all, as much as I like Tarkovsky, his films can be somewhat replicated. But will a film like A Clockwork Orange or 2001 be replicated? Or any of his other films? Also, full metal jacket is brilliant. Why do people compare it to platoon? Don’t expect to see platoon when you watch Kubrick because at best, platoon is just another decent Vietnam war film. Full metal jacket on the other hand? It’s brilliant in every way. Ok, it didn’t look like Vietnam, but that doesnt matter because Kubrick is not the type of person to make platoon-he’s way better than that. And eyes wide shut-it’s haunting, absolutely haunting. Dr Strangelove? The most ingenious comedy you will ever see. A clockwork orange? The most brilliant portrayl of the human condition ever created. Barry Lyndon? The most exquisite piece of art I have ever seen. 2001? The most influential film ever made, while not being a mainstream film (except for the fact that it was produced by MGM) I am just grateful that I am able to watch his films and learn about his life.

[@visanion1361]

The goat!!!!the goaaat!!!!

[@kubrickguy]

Very well observed, I think you totally got to the truth of his exposition. He made us observe the human condition objectively but more than that, it is interpretive and subjective. Like looking at a piece of art. We will all have different interpretations, experiences and feelings. Great piece, thank you.

[@wanoumars]

Super cool channel!

[@eduardosci1909]

Good point. Tks!

[@Fredrik-iz4ou]

Wells and Kubrick *showing* their action, is more of a return to silent era movie-making, than god-like authority; after too many years of sound talkies taking over from images showing the stories.

[@kangarooMonkee]

That was a great breakdown of Citizen Kanes influence but I feel like it should be specified it didn’t invent that kind of camera work. It might have popularised it, but filmmakers have always been getting a little experimental, like the German expressionist films of the 1920’s. Then in the 30’s there was M, Vampyr, and the hugely successful Frankenstein trilogy.

[@corybaker13]

Please make more videos

[@betterd9160]

What’s weird about Kubrick is that there seems to be a constant phenomenon where people don’t like the firm on first viewing only to become obsessed

[@poindextertunes]

theres people who know SK is a genius and everyone else who is wrong

[@tortis6342]

This is unrelated, but thanks for subscribing to me (I don’t know why, because I do nothing, but thanks all the same). I really like movies, so I’m definitely going to subscribe to you.

[@Eszjous]

Why is this channel dead? :(

[@yt-sh]

Great analysis although you should have explained more since you can

[@philbarber9738]

Kubrick needed an editor. He drained The Shining of suspense ("the all work, no play" moment a perfect example) of jolt and shock by dragging out the scenes - did the same in the execution of the sniper in Full Metal as well as Alex's meeting the PM in Clockwork and let's not forget the trip to Jupiter in 2001. Last 25 years of his career (his recognized genius period) with overlong, yes poorly edited good looking well mounted productions. The run from Paths to Clockwork has only been matched by Hitchcock (twice) but by the time the 70s rolled around Ken Russell was far more audacious and interesting filmmaker with less control and a much smaller budget. Kubrick is indeed one of a handful of the truly superb filmmakers but his pacing could and was a buzz killer in moments.

[@Tolstoy111]

His films have their own sense of time and space - they work on their own terms. I would say that Strangelove and 2001 are fully within his genius period.

[@philbarber9738]

@@Tolstoy111 2001 trip to Jupiter segment, I could have walked there faster. It's a masterpiece but overlong for my taste There's just so long one wants to stare at The Mona Lisa. K's picture though, his call to take the long way home.

[@markwrede8878]

Profound, Thought provoking. Wrong.

[@quatore-5886]

That garbage music in the background is so unnecessary

[@PatDK]

Too loud by ten

[@push.6901]

Maybe it was a sign he was a psychopath?

[@poindextertunes]

psychopaths are by definition violent people. Kubrick’s never done anything like that in his life. Imo he was nuerodivergent, adhd, ocd maybe? but he was a very hard worker and extremely humble. doesn’t strike me as a threat to society

[@PatDK]

@@poindextertunesthat is absolutely not true, do better research
