The other music I got from musopen.org
5 seconds into the video and I already know it's pure kino
Can I get like a dime of 8mm?
As an author, I understand this. I always get nervous when people say they want to read my work in chronological order. It’s not that my first book is bad, but it is a lot rougher compared to what would come after. I don’t recommend it when people ask which book they should start with.
Same
I quite liked Fear and Desire, it's an intruiging stepping-stone into Kubrick's work, he fully shines with The Killing, but this is well worth a watch for a look into his history
Yes, Kubrick starting as an independent filmmaker, when barely anyone did that, truly stands out the most and really stuck with him for all the right reasons. Someone like Stanley just wasn't made for a studio system but had to stay independent with the freedom and time he needed. And even when he DID work for the Metro Goldwyn Mayer and Warner Brothers, and was generously given the time and money for his movies, he ALWAYS wanted to do his best. Not just to be happy with the work himself but also to EARN the trust he got from the Studios at the end of the day. He always aimed for his movies to be successful so the Studio would get their money back. He somehow managed to do both, maintain artistic integrity but also make it in a way that it pays out. And we all know that this is really the hardest thing to achieve as an artist.
Perhaps this is what most filmmakers admire about him the most but the biggest lesson i learned from him was mostly how important a good and interesting (captivating) cinematography is. This man taught me SOOO much about perspective than any other filmmaker did. This is something i always observed the most while watching his movies and seeing what you can do to break conventions and make it a visual experience that really rolls out the carpet for the non-visable things.
Because every good movie deals with the non-visible. But since film is a visual medium you have to make it able for the eyes to perceive. If these things are creating a cohesive fusion, then you get something that Stanley Kubrick did with his movies. I think this is the best way i can describe it.
Amongst the things I like about Fear and Desire, is how you can see the germ, the early signs of this intuition from Kubrick, that verbality will let you down when it matters. The movie has a theme of "communication failure" throught: how Sidney is driven mad by the girl's inability to understand him, and how Mac spirals due to his words having effects on others he didn't intend. You watch it and go, "of course the director of this movie went on to become a mainly visual storyteller."
I saw this yesterday at screening in central London, England. It was raw and unpolished with a very strange pacing and no real intentional thrust to the story. I did enjoy the look of some of the shots- the contrast of some of the images was quite beautiful. One review I read called it "for completionists only" and I have to agree. Kubrick superfans will enjoy seeing the very early seeds of his later shot composition or editing choices. For everyone else, it's a bizarre fever dream at best.
A cool fact about the photo he took of the sullen man that helped propel his career was actually somewhat staged. He admitted to having to coax the man into looking sad.
perhaps you could say he... directed him? 🤔
Fear and desire sums up my lovelife

Woah, Louis Wain needs me? OK I'll do it for you Louis, I'll go to bat for you Louis, I'm Louis Wain's top guy

Fire!
Relive it!
I can definitely see why he hated it, and thought it was pretentious, but there I still think there is something worthwhile in the film. A couple shots, like the one of the soldier gone mad in the river, are great and I like the concept of it.
Amateurs have a glow that seasoned vets lost along the way, perhaps the effort of understanding comes through in the projects but I've always found myself genuinely enjoying the artists early work much more. So many artists get "sleepy" and lose the thing that made them interesting in the first place.
Stan The Man, the first film director I became utterly obsessed with in high school and still treat my DVD copies of his films as if they were ancient Rosetta stones. I still haven't seen Fear & Desire or Killer's Kiss, but I've seen his early short films and have DVDs of everything else he made from The Killing up until Full Metal Jacket (Eyes Wide Shut is his only movie that doesn't gel with me no matter how many times I watch it). Nice work, Kino!
why no love for Eyes Wide Shut? just curious
Eyes wide shut is easily top 5 in his discography wdym
I always wonder what would have been if Kubrick's first movie was a Film Noir one since his play with lights, shadows and contrast in "Fear and Desire" is absolutely gorgeous. Those things always make me look over certain flaws like cuts that ain't all that great. And even the acting doesn't bother me. I still find it a lot better than what you see in most movies today.
To see one of the pillars of the filmmaking world start from humble beginnings. Truly an inspiring story
It’s crazy to think how much time has passed since Kubrick made his first film, and how much cinema has evolved since then, but amateur filmmaking is still very much the same “running through the woods with your friends” lol
Congratulations to Lofti Pixels!
Ah yes, Fear and desire. My favourite example of audio-visual media along with the CZcams video Following:Tge best Christipher Nolan movie you've never seen.
Holy shit that background music. Nobody else will be able to relate to this but I spent my childhood hearing it as the Democrats Abroad hold music when my mom would phonebank for them
please make more videos like this one
Awesome video
Kino, you say you're going back to your roots with this video, but i've seen Kubrick in interviews and he's literally me.
I hope you do a video about Flying Padre.
Blink..please blink..my GOD! Love the video though
I don't know how
I haven't clicked on your videos in more than a year, this is a dank title and thumbnail, this gonna do well. Also hope ur doing well lol!
❤
Do I hear Acid Jazz? Love it.
People called Kubrick a perfectionist and a lot of that came from the shame of this movie and never wanting to fail again. People forget that he isn't some film God, he was a man. Still one of my all-time favourite directors. And for a reason.
I thought it was awful - but I really enjoyed seeing a cinematic maestro make something quite poorly made. The editing was pretty poor but noticing that was very helpful!
edit: Also, the version that I watched was colour restored (very poorly) so that undoubtedly had a negative influence on my viewing
how do u get those movie clips like u put in this video and any other of your videos?
I recently watched through all of Kubrick’s films in sequential order over the span of several months. I recommend the same for any aspiring filmmakers. It’s awesome to see how his work evolves and matures.
That's it
I'm halfway through this film and it's more excruciating with every passing second.
Just remember when you see your facebook flashbacks from 10 years ago... even Kubrick posted cringe.
I love Kubrick movies. A Clockwork Orange (to me) is a perfect movie. What does failure mean? Try again. : )
I saw the thumbnail and thought what's Salman Rushdie got to do with Stanley Kubrick?
Is this Alvy Singer cosplay lol
Kubrick: omg guys no stop im so embarrassed rn
wake up babe, new Kino Corner just dropped
Am I the only one that noticed that he doesn’t blink? 😕
I've seen the shorts and parts of Fear and Desire. It Is rather dull. The film drags, the characters are undefined, it doesn't have the deliberate pacing and tight narrative that Kubrick became known for.
Made a thumbnail
Why was this video violated by the algorythm??
Kino time
10/10 kino content, as per
hi nostalgia critic
Bro, and I thought '2001' was Kubrick's first film.
Would’ve been the greatest debut OAT.
My favorite was the Shining.
Nah fear and desire was definitely more interesting than killer’s kiss
But Lolita was a good idea
Babe, wake up, Kino just posted.
1st maybe
bad vidiio
his career was bookended by terrible movies.
Bro has horrendous taste lol
The only good bit in Fear And Desire is the bit with the "girl" seen through some leaves. That works and shows the future of Kubrick's mastery of framing. The rest of the film really is amateur crap.
