have you ever written or done any work making something, you see each photo, each page you write, each scene you light, its all got a utilitarian purpose as a single cog that enlights the whole piece of work, you are making, if you look from the outside, you can focus on one thing and see the purpose in that, but if you want people coming back again and again, to look deeper and engage with the work, with all the text and sub text, then yes, sometimes pin-point perfection down to every tiny thing, is required. Kubrick knew that, and the actors which understood that, did 100s of takes if required the ones who didn't well, by repetition they finally got it. Its easy when you write research and spend hours and do it on paper, but in application poor management of people and everyone else not on the same page can really ruin the time energy and the money that's put into it.
To be fair, think of the egos a lot of actors have. I could totally see working with an actor who's treated larger then life on a regular basis frustrating cause they aren't giving their best performance and think that because of who they are, that whatever they offer in a performance is good enough. Kubrick wasn't gonna settle in that aspect and his work proved why he shouldn't have to settle. I think a lot of the "bad" we hear about him is multiple egos clashing with Kubricks own ego. Its just Kubrick looks worse in the situation cause he's the one being demanding but sometimes you got to be harsh to get the best result cause at the end of the day i think if you work with someone like him you have to know that the art of filmmaking stands above all else and what are you willing to give or lose to be apart of it. I know some of the things he would demand were ridiculous but i truly believe if he wasn't the way he was about filmmaking we wouldn't be watching this video right now and those actors and people involved made money and got credited off his vision so they can wipe their tears with their hundred dollar bills and complain about Kubrick to the next production who gave them the gig from working in a Stanley Kubrick film.
he was probably one of the first hollywood director whom i was facinated with. One day i somehwo stumbled on the trailer of 2001 a space dddysey, and i was shocked learning that it was from 1968. Then when i saw it, i knew he was some beast. Then the shining and A clockwork orange. Sad that he just made 13 films, but all of them are masterpieces. The greatest movie director of all time for me.
I commented suggesting to make a video about Kubrick when you brought the shining in your "hardest films to make" video. Thanks for accepting my suggestion. :)))
He was successful and people liked his work, “His” work. His vision, which he thought through and wanted to be shown correctly. Who is it for people to cry about him. It’s his work
Kirk Douglas called Kubrick a "talented shit." About ten years ago I was working at a movie theatre and we were holding a Q and A following the screening of 2001 with Kier Dullea. Getting to meet and speak to him one on one briefly was a true thrill. I wish I had thought to bring up.a theory that I had about why Kubrick did so many takes. I don't think it was "actors not knowing their lines" but an attempt to beat the acting out of the actors. The performances in his films are very stylized and oftentimes exaggerated and unrealistic. It works in most cases, although I think it didn't in Eyes Wide Shut where the characters have the mannerisms of automatons and are just dull. Even at their dumbest his characters are usually interesting to watch as they blunder along to their own destruction. But it seems like he encourages these eccentric performances and when he doesn't get them he will run them through these multiple takes until he has broken them down. Realism seems anathema to him. He once said that he's "looking for the reality under the reality" but he gives little detail or advice on how his actor should arrive at this point. It frustrated Mathew Modine during the filming of Full Metal Jacket and at one point said something that was verboten in the presence of Kubrick: This is stupid. It infuriated Kubrick and for a week Modine was frequently called a "c**t" as the British use the word. Kubrick disliked anything that stopped or impeded the creative process. For all the allegations of being a control freak he was actually very open to new ideas. When he was filming FMJ he had no concrete ending for the film in mind and was open to ideas from the cast. While filming Dr. Strangelove the idea of Slim Pickens riding the bomb like a cowboy was a last-minute flash of inspiration, which the production crew was now tasked to build functioning bomb bay doors where none existed before. His films were always in a state of evolution and the script was just a guide and not a holy text that had to be abided by faithfully. I recommend reading a biography of Kubrick by Vincent LoBrutto. It's one of the better ones I've read.
The ironic thing is that Kubrick put his actors through all that work and yet, despite the great work he made, he never won an Oscar for best director.
Kubrick was a mad man known by repeating take by take, think of all he tortured Shelley Duvall, while shooting on the set of The Shining. Nevertheless, now everything is different as anyone could be recording from Instagram or X, therefore it's hard to unfake chemistry with someone on a set, so Stanley Kubrick would be probably cancelled today. By the way, he was close to work with Marlon Brando in a Western film, which the own Brando had to direct.
Why didn't you talk about Kubrick's unrealized projects, like "Napoleon" and "Aryan Papers", and how some of those unfinished projects have caused long gaps between movies like between "Full Metal Jacket" and "Eyes Wide Shut", which were 12 year apart with nothing in between? Or how The Beatles approached Kubrick to direct them in a "Lord Of The Rings" film adaptation (not kidding)?
It must be tough trying to live up to being the "master" that everyone has you made out to be. You have to come up with films that try way too hard to impress theatergoers instead of making quiet, organic films like Ozu.
We hired them. They must do anything the director want as long as it not about sexual, violence and not too much torture I think in shelley duvall case is the only case is stanley kubrick do too much
Seriously overrated Director…I have only enjoyed three of his films…2001, Spartacus and Dr Strangelove…found most of his others were watchable, but sterile and inert….Also, he was a loathsome jerk of a human…just NOT worth putting up with a nasty bully
In the future "they" will probably reevaluate Kubrick's films and tells us that Barry Lyndon and Eyes Wide Shut were masterpieces, while Dr. Strangelove and A Clockwork Orange actually stunk.

Finally, someone explains this. Doesn't matter how good you are. How well you work with people in this collaborative art form matters greatly.
I’d sacrifice a thousand Shelly duvalls for the shining.

@@douglasdoyle8944 and the day you end up alone will be the funniest day ever
@@douglasdoyle8944It's not even her best movie. Check out Altman's "3 Women" to see Duvall's greatest on-screen performance.
That’s why you won’t even be able to direct an episode of Postman Pat
Man, I love his movies but he sounds like a real piece of work.

Kubrick was the director who made me love cinema
Directing only 13 films? That's a shit-load of high quality films!
Imagining Kubrick being a gym instructor: can you make 127 push up please ??? . The whole gym will fall part
I like how the narrator says Douglas, "Vowed never to work with him again." As if Kubrick were likely to want to work with Douglas again. lol
My mount everest of Great filmmakers: Alfred Hitchcock, Akira Kurosawa, Stanley Kubrick, Steven Spielberg & Cecil B. DeMille.
Who’s your favourite out of those?
@@FilmStack mine would be Kubrick and Hitchcock.
Basic and vanilla. Good job
@@nalday2534 thanks.
@@nalday2534 DeMille's pretty out of the ordinary, you gotta admit.

Most underrated channel
Stanley Kubrick was one of the greatest director
Imagine making a space film look soo good that people start to think the moon landing was faked 😅
He was successful and people liked his work, “His” work. His vision, which he thought through and wanted to be shown correctly. Who is it for people to cry about him. It’s his work
He is actually the GOAT of cinema.
I mean how can you make 2001 a space Odyssey in 1968, must require extreme insanity and talent to do .

That’s right: Kubrick set up the film One eyed Jack and Brando had to direct it. It was the first and only film Brando ever made as a director.
@@allys744 What did you think of that Western film?
Sorry but this is just a poorly told version of all the events told in the wb documentary 😅
Make a video on Martin Scorsese's journey
Kubrick has one of the highest masterpiece to failure ratios in film history. There isn't a single picture he did that isn't worth a watch!
I saw Fear and Desire at an art museum during a film fest. I bet he would have hated that!
Why didn't you talk about Kubrick's unrealized projects, like "Napoleon" and "Aryan Papers", and how some of those unfinished projects have caused long gaps between movies like between "Full Metal Jacket" and "Eyes Wide Shut", which were 12 year apart with nothing in between? Or how The Beatles approached Kubrick to direct them in a "Lord Of The Rings" film adaptation (not kidding)?
Kubrick was the greatest to ever do it and he will never be equalled. EVER.

I think in shelley duvall case is the only case is stanley kubrick do too much
I guess that's when the films are too good as well
What If ParaMount never had the film rights to Transformers and the TF brand (franchise/series) was owned by a different movie & TV company instead
Ok
Nothing would change lmao
luv you bud
His nickname isn't "one-take Kubrick"
His movies are only the way they are because he was like that a true perfectionist who cares about that stuff anymore he’s dead
The most spectrummy director.
Hi😊
Hey! 😀
Hi 😅
what if when 2001 a space odyssey never released
stanley kubrick is my favourite director
Ok
1 minute in 8 views of fell bro
Ok
Where are your videos at @chaneljd9541? Stop hating lol
When I think of stories of a director being too strict when filming, I tend to think of Michael Cimino directing Heaven’s Gate.
Gonzalez Margaret Young Dorothy Young Carol
Kubrik was killed
Seriously overrated Director…I have only enjoyed three of his films…2001, Spartacus and Dr Strangelove…found most of his others were watchable, but sterile and inert….Also, he was a loathsome jerk of a human…just NOT worth putting up with a nasty bully

in the future, there will be ultra hipsters who will consider today's hipsters as basic
Sounds about right
So basically, he's a great director but not so great person? (At least, to work with)
