[[File:kubrick.jpg|frame|This man cares about his work. [[Kubrick Stare|His eyes say so.]]]]
Stanley Kubrick is a controversial director. In a good way. His films span nearly every genre he could get his hands on—but start in the wrong place.
Line 18 ⟶ 17:
----
* ''Fear And Desire'' - his first real film, which he considered his [[Old Shame]]. Kubrick and his first wife were the only crew on-set during production. [[Keep Circulating the Tapes]], as it has never been released on video and is only rarely screened.
* ''Killer's Kiss'' - Kubrick's second wife cameos in this one.
Line 33 ⟶ 31:
* ''[[Full Metal Jacket]]'' - War movie set in Vietnam. Starred Matthew Modine as Private Joker, really starred R. Lee Ermey as Gunnery Sergeant Hartman.
* ''[[Eyes Wide Shut]]'' - Starring [[Tom Cruise]] and [[Nicole Kidman]]. Has a "[[Love It or Hate It]]" reputation.

* [[Bunny Ears Lawyer]]: Kubrick was ungodly eccentric, but the quality and impact of his films speak for themselves.
* [[Doing It for the Art]]: This was the man who converted lenses from NASA to shoot in natural candlelight in ''[[Barry Lyndon]]'' looking right. Perhaps more impressive was getting an entire fleet of the Spanish army to be extras in ''[[Spartacus]]''.
