Man's been dead 19 years and we're still unearthing BTS footage of him. I guess he found a way to cheat death after all.
Making a film that holds up after 50 years . . . is tough, but not impossible. Making a SF film that holds up after 50 years . . . IS impossible. But he did it . . .
def one of the greatest directors of the 20th century.stew fmj crew.
Holding up? It´s better than any other SF film and my favorite of all time.
I just remembered, Tarkovsky's Solaris holds up very strongly I think
I think terminator 2 will also hold up after 50 years 🤔

Sorry, the original but not T2
I worked for stanley for 1 year he was amazing you knew you just knew he was something special and the most modest person ever. stew fmj crew.
You sound like an idiot
@@rudolphguarnacci197 Coming from someone with a reindeer's christian name....i think your the idiot.

Hmm, throw in a little religion and mock a name. Brilliant. Took me a while to figure out what fmj stood for. I'm slow, too
@@rudolphguarnacci197 your name deserves to be made fun of. And f**k christianity

Live a long life, Mr. Libertine.
The greatest film artist in history at his peak in this footage, a pleasure, thanks.
I found this very calming to watch, especially his tranquil voice... A genius!
Def a genius. stew fmj crew.
I really love Kubrick for his perfectionism.. a very unfashionable thing in the modern world of ‘good enough’ mediocrity. I’m glad that the work he left us showed us that details are worth fighting for and that aiming higher is not a wasted effort. I’d love to see that attitude more in our communities.. that once cared enough to build great cathedrals…
This is my daily motivation
Kubrick would probably hate how Hollywood has sold its soul for comic book movies. Saw "2001" last week on IMAX....after 50 years...just gets better with every viewing.
The extremely high levels of production values...the sets...the pods...it has an extraordinary effect on you. Those pods look more real now than they did then. I can't underestimate the contribution these fabulous sets have on this film. A pod should be in a museum somewhere.
I'm so happy this exists thanks for posting
Today I noticed how much Nolan wears and works like him
At one point, Kubrick had his wardrobe down to nothing but black slacks, white shirts, and blue blazers. It saved him time wasted having to look through his closet and wondering what to wear. It's like deciding your closet will be nothing but black clothes.
Stanley Kubrick: voted least likely to show up on the set wearing a Hawaiian shirt. 😏

Wow. Rare footage of Kubrick filming 2001. Thanks for sharing.
The man worked harder than any other director in history, besides maybe Chaplin.
Stanley worked so hard even after our 13 hour days on fmj.stew fmj crew.
@HAL 9000 Just caught your message sure......and thank you....as i think you might know i am on twitter and facebook too. stew fmj crew.
@HAL 9000 Also to add Twitter and fb my name is Stewart Bloomfield thanks.
@HAL 9000 Again sure my email is fed@lawyer.com too.
There’s so little footage of Kubrick speaking, there’s not even much _audio_ of just his voice, that every time I see a picture of him I keep expecting him to have this booming menacing voice, like a Bond super-villain!
There's a 1987 recently released 2 hr. interview with Kubrick, all audio, here: czcams.com/video/ehQf0LJVOHQ/video.html
lol I know what you mean. Instead he sounds very much like a new yorker.
You put together such a beautiful video. This looks like a mini bio of Kubrick. And a great one.
If anyone DARES to give this a thumbs down . . . ! This year is the 50th anniversary of "2001: A Space Odyssey," the film that makes me work as hard as I can to make films without a single indifferent frame.
you will turn mad if you don't leave some dull frame.
No offense intended, but dull frames are portals to Hell! Dull frames are vile, offensive, and hideous abominations - foul grotesqueries that pollute the soul of all who see them! Get thee behind me, Dull Frames! YARG!
Or, maybe I'm just being fussy. It's hard to tell, sometimes . . . ;)
Thumbs up to your comment, of course.
Kubrick wanted to keep under control everything on his movies, even the smallest frame.
He started his career as a photographer. He was very good and had a lot of technical knowledge before he ever used a motion picture camera. Anyone who has ever edited a film knows you have to make decisions about where to make your edits. Every frame matters because you SEE every frame - and you have to decide where every cut happens.
What kind of films do you make?
The Genius
50th anniversary of--2001/A SPACE ODYSSEY!!!!THNNXX STANLEY FOR YOUR--ART!!!!
It´s incredible a genius like Kubrick could acomplish such a revolutionary and strange masterpiece.
The genius of this film and Kubrick are beyond this world. 2001 is incomparable to other films, simply because it is the best.
Thanks for making this video.
This video is beautiful. Thank you David.
You're welcome!
Respect to the legend!!!! I will follow his steps...
That look he gives at 1:32, is the sort of look Orson Welles would give in one of his early films.
Thank you for this. I havent seen a lot of this footage. Hopefully one day we can see the original first print with all the footage that was trimmed out.
Genius.
The first minute or so of this narration is very true today. Film seems to be taking a back seat to television due to streaming services or what have you.
The greatest film of all time! 2001
Mesmerized by this movie and this video.
His attention to detail was impressive.
1000th like, wish i was the 2001st
The shot of Kubrick at 2:53 make him look a bit like Jude Law. Just couldn't go without mentioning it.
a jewish prophet indeed.
truee
Wow... that practical revolving set still blows me away. I wish there was more behind the scenes footage! I am going to try something similar this summer inside an old cement-mixer (not kidding).... I just hope my set has 'set' by then.... (cue bad joke tumbleweed)
It blew ACC away, too. He described it as quite terrifying to watch in action.
Indeed Lawrence, I don't suppose there were 20 HSE bods standing just out of shot back in 68!
You do know Fred Astaire danced up a wall and on the ceiling years before on a revolving set in Hollywood. Practical sets and models had done amazing things since the teens. The audience eye was just harder and harder to fool and please, decade by decade.
This czcams.com/video/ffxKSjUwKdU/video.html takes it to the next level.
Wow.... Thanks for that. It's like Christopher Nolan made a music video! She aint bad either :-)
Thank you...
Indeed highly evolved beings who don't need physical existence came to earth 18.5 millions years ago, quickened our evolution and made us how we are today.
patrimonio dell'umanità
This is really very cool. Thank you for putting this together.
I would have loved to meet that man.
An artistic face, I like his looking.
Nearest we will ever get to seeing true visionary at work. Kubrick was a true genuis, over used phrase but that's my belief.
His voice is way more soft than I would have thought
there must be more life in the universe then we can possibly conceive of. i think he read in to our history and new we where helped by others from time to time.
Love the New Yawk accent!
He's from the Brahnx!
David E, thanks. His directing was like buttah. The last true genius of cinema.
Sounds like Peter Sellers doing his Kubrick impression!
The Visuals of this movie are this fantasic to this Day!
I helps if you read Clarke’s novel first. Then the movie makes much more sense.
I always loved the look of that pod bay deck ... it took my breath away when I saw this movie. The one thing that could have been better was the manipulation of the hands of the pods, that was not done with the same perfection as most of the rest of the movie.
THIS MOVIE DOESN'T FUCK AROUND
What is the source of the Kubrick audio that starts at 25 seconds into the video? Thank you
6 people don't love movies!
Even his beards are ahead of its time :))) Beard fashion came to trends since 2010s
Where did you get this piece of collection?...Bravo, bravo, sir!
This footage is from the Blu-ray extras of 2001: A Space Odyssey. The extras are called "2001: A Space Odyssey - What is out there?" and "2001: A Space Odyssey - A Look Behind the Future (1966)" and the interview with Kubrick at the premiere of 2001 can be found here: "czcams.com/video/bdKHuyhhyuM/video.html"
Thank you, i didnt knew that...what a extraordinary film. Take care.
2001:A Space Odessy orchestra was perfectly used in Titanic.
You don't need CGI.

What is that lens thing Stanley looks through ?
Marques Martinez it's called a director's "viewfinder" and it allows you to see what a specific camera shot or angle would look like without having to bring in a giant camera and set it up. Plenty of people like Kubrick, Spielberg, and Nolan use viewfinders to help them get a quick idea of how they want to frame shots before actually shooting the scene
And the only people on set allowed to look through it are the director, cinematographer and the production designer.
Or else you go to prison for 5 years.
Also, these viewfinders sometimes have filters in them (typically dark sepia or dark green) which make the scene appear monochromatic (no colour) which is a very good composition aid. Some directors (e.g. Fellini, Bunuel) seemed to use the filter-on-a-stick only, worn around the neck on a string. Others (e.g. Tarkovsky) used nothing except their own hands to frame a scene. It seems an individual thing, I used to have one (an Alan Gordon Mark V) but found it nearly useless. Different strokes etc.
Merveilleuse archive, la vache ! Un génie filmé dans son oeuvre... une mise en abîme de l'auteur lui-même qui (ne) le sait à ce moment ? C'est très déroutant. C'est comme si on voyait Orson Wells filmé dans Citizen Kane...c'est l'impression (à tort ou à raison) que j'ai eu.... merci.

Not my favorite movie of all time but the entire time I was watching I was just like "how the fuck did he even make this, it literally seems impossible"
Brilliant observation made almost 55 years ago.
Wow where did you get this ??
Where did you get the footage?
Could someone please tell me what this film was all about
Good luck with that.
Evolution
The meaning of life.
It is about the origins,and destiny of mankind.
From the story "The Sentential": a vastly intelligent society of non corporeal life has seeded life on Earth billions of years before and monitored/guided its evolution using The Monoliths. A tool for that purpose. Man eventually evolves to a space faring race and discovers their first Monolith on an excavation performed while constructing our first moon base in the 1990s (optimistic and based on Von Braun's predictions and speculation). While the big brass at NASA and the US government were studying it, the Monolith emitted a radio signal toward Jupiter.
A mission to Jupiter, already planned, was redirected to study this top secret signal. HAL was reprogrammed for this secret mission. His original program!ming was to help the pilots and the survey scientists, in cryosleep (popular fad in fiction of the 60s).
HAL went nuts as they approached Jupiter because he realized the pilots and scientists would find out about the secret radio signal and the hyper advanced aliens, but he was to keep it a secret. HAL decided to kill them all and perform the mission himself.
Dave Bowman turned HAL off and proceeded with the mission. He flew into a monolith orbiting Jupiter with the flight pod and realized it was full of stars. The Monolith was a Star Gate to another place, galaxy, universe, take your pick. Long way away.
Bowman ends up on an alien planet (last visuals of the light show sequence 9 minutes long) and experiences non linear time. He is at once old, young, an infant, dead, not born and living.
The end until Clarke wrote 2010.
I want to become a film director like Kubrick, Hitchcock, Kurosawa, Ray.
And what about Tarkovsky?
Man this guy was just super fucking smart and creative.
How have movies gone backwards? I guess talented artists has been replaced with technicians. IMAX instead of stories.
From Stanley Kubrick, Ingmar Bergman and Akira Kurosawa, to J.J Abrams, Zack Snyder and Rian Johnson. From 2001, to The Last Jedi. It's depressing and embarrassing.
That is all.
Well said.
Great films are still being made, quite a few in 2018.
Still some genius today doing complex important films, Paul thomas anderson for example. But in general its gona backwards yes.
Same thing with pop/rock music. We've gone from The Beatles, Pink Floyd, and Led Zeppelin to Doja Cat, H.E.R., and Dua Lupa. From Sgt. Pepper to whatever latest album/song is from those latter artists.
FYI, I'm actually one of the few who liked Last Jedi. You wrote it before it came out, but Rise of Skywalker was much much worse. None of the new SW films are masterpieces.
really distracting to extend the video out to the sides of the YT screen ... just leave it black.
Where are Neil and Buzz?
He just blew that poor interviewer's mind there at the end.
Wait his attire looks similar to that of nolan inspiration can come from any way
This is the best movie I've ever seen and I didn't even watch it yet
Never watched this film
Needs to be seen in a really big theater. It will have a release this year in 70mm. Choose wisely. As you know, it was in Cinerama when it was first released. So, to compensate, sit about 10 rows back in the big theater near you. Reserve. It's not a perfect film. You might get restless. But it will transport you in more than one way. There's so much care put into it....1968. It simply obliterated everything before it.
very good, like watching God at work . no other movie maker has controlled until its most slightest detail all the process of making a movie. 2001 space audacy ?
Trumbul was the best
*....Who Lied to Stanley Kubrick about the Star's and the Universe.? I'm guessing Stephen Hawking...?*
Good footage. Just lose the BS side repeats. A black mask would be fine, thank you.
Crap
Genius.

The best that ever was.
