Stanley Kubrick

A comprehensive exhibition on one of the most influential directors of the 20th century: Stanley Kubrick (1928-1999), the genius behind films such as Lolita, 2001: A Space Odyssey, A Clockwork Orange, The Shining and my personal Top 5 favorite of all time Full Metal Jacket can be seen from June 21st till September 9th 2012 at the EYE Film Museum in Amsterdam. Kubrick’s films are both technically and artistically stunning. While content-wise, he often sought to be controversial. The exhibition is a co-production with the Deutsches Filmmuseum in Frankfurt and shows all aspects involved in the creation of Kubrick’s films: from screenplays to storyboards, from set models to actual props, and from costumes to clips of the eventual films and documentaries. Parallel to the exhibition, EYE is staging a retrospective of Kubrick’s films, from The Killer’s Kiss (1955) to Eyes Wide Shut (1999). And via special programmes, such as debates, interviews and lectures, will be zooming in on both Kubrick’s work and his driving force. See above the full documentary Stanley Kubricks Boxes.
