Description: "Stanley Kubrick never lived to see the release of Eyes Wide Shut, the sensational film based on a novella by Viennese author Arthur Schnitzler. With a discussion of that film and a new overview of Kubrick's life and career, Norman Kagan completes his study of the enigmatic filmmaker. Eyes Wide Shut was only the latest in a string of successes over nearly five decades: The Killing, Paths of Glory, Spartacus, Lolita, Dr.

Strangelove, 2001, A Clockwork Orange, Barry Lyndon, The Shining, and Full Metal Jacket. The films are examined in detail, from conception through camera work, acting, set and costume design, dialogue, music, and editing. Popular and scholarly critical responses are included to show the unusual unity of Kubrick's work and his unique legacy."--BOOK JACKET.
