MY TRIBUTE TO STANLEY KUBRICK

"I tried to create a visual experience, one that bypasses verbalized pigeonholing and directly penetrates the subconscious with an emotional and philosophical content...I intended the film to be an intensely subjective experience that reaches the viewer at an inner level of consciousness, just as music does...You're free to speculate as you wish about the philosophical and allegorical content of the fim."
Stanley Kubrick, 1968

I feel that this statement really contains and summarizes Kubrick's art of moviemaking. I consider Stanley Kubrick as one of the greatest directors of all times, besides few others, like Michelangelo Antonioni or Luis Bunuel. What actually I adore of his style is the ability of expressing itself through images and pictures, making words and dialogues just as minor elements of a more complex painting.
If making movies is an independent way of making art, different from litterature or theatre, the capacity of "impressing" the reacher with few and fast frames, speaking with no words to his inner and more sensitive conscience, well, we can say that is what Stanley Kubrick has done as no others.
Great, touching, unforgettable movies.

Great movie from the scandalous Nabokov's book. Highly inquietanting and absorbing, even if there are no sexual sequences at all. Can't compare to the vulgar and pornographic remake of these days
Genial satire of the 60ies' fobia of the Reds. Unforgettable interpretation of Peter Sellers, one of my favourite actors ever
The masterpiece. everything has already been said and written. I just consider the opening sequence, The Dawn of Man, as the greatest sequence ever filmed in the history of Cinema
The history of Alex Delagee and his droogies through an escalation of rape, ultraviolence and Beethoven. Kubrick does not joke with us, showing human perversion at its pure state.
Barry Lindon, The rise and the fall of an Irish born adventurer in the European society of 18th century. even if this movie did not have the same success of others, it's maybe my favourite. Lyric and dramatic, every photogram seems as a painting of those times
The Shining, Another great Kubrick's descent into human's mind most lurked labyrinth. Maybe Jake Nicholson's best interpretation ever
No one has ever told us about Vietnam as Kubrick did
