    Stanley Kubrick will go down as one of the greatest filmmakers of all time. No question. But why? What makes his filmmaking so outstanding? In this video essay, our task (and not an easy one) will be to dig inside Stanley Kubrick’s directing style to see if we can unlock the secrets within. From his scriptwriting, production design, color, cinematography, film editing, sound design, and film music - his mastery of all these filmmaking elements is legendary.
    Stanley Kubrick only made 13 movies in his lifetime, but they are all considered classics. Not only the best movies in their respective genres but also some of the best movies ever made. Dr Strangelove, 2001 A Space Odyssey, A Clockwork Orange, The Shining, Full Metal Jacket, and Eyes Wide Shut, just a few iconic Stanley Kubrick movies you may have heard of. Despite their dissimilarities, behind each is filmmaking craftsmanship at its finest.
    With regards to Kubrick’s scriptwriting, his consistent focus is the human experience, where big questions are left unanswered. In his production design, he will echo the prevailing themes of each film into the set design and costumes. Stanley Kubrick is often associated with his cinematography, including his wide shot compositions, practical lighting, and those iconic tracking shots. Any fan of color theory will have a field day with Kubrick’s colors, which sail past subtle and overwhelm us.
    Kubrick doesn’t overly cut his films - his film editing is reserved and patient. On the soundtrack, Stanley Kubrick might go light on sound design but more than compensates with dramatic and enthralling film music.
    In the world of film theory and film analysis, Stanley Kubrick has left us 13 amazing films that we will endlessly puzzle over, dissect, and interpret. In film directing, he has set the bar for directors everywhere. And while we never get another Stanley Kubrick movie, what he has given us will last forever.

      @@ingvarhallstrom2306 Not surprised. Sadly The Academy is a collection of previous winners and 'click crowd'. 2001 ASO only won Best Visual Effects. It honestly should have cleaned up every award considering how groundbreaking the film was. Sci Fi films always struggle at the Oscars and one major aspect to a win in any category is has the film broken new ground in film making. Be it technology, story telling, film craft, directing, sound. And it gets back to the old crowd who are voting for all their Hollwood mates. The BAFTA's were kinder to the film, they seemed to understand how groundbreaking it was in many ways. Even the solo Oscar for Best visual effects for 2001 really goes to the leader of the VFX team. I can only assume Kubric was in total control of the VFX for him to be awarded the Oscar. Very unusual for the Director to win an Oscar for VFX. Kubrick must have upset the Hollywood 'click' to be so avoided in awards.

      I disagree with the point that Kubrick always presented "crisp and clear story telling." Barry Lyndon was hardly "crisp." In fact, when I first saw it in the theater, 45 years ago, my date kept on asking to leave. (I broke up with her a week later. ) But, over time, I now appreciate Barry Lyndon as a true masterpiece. That's the thing about Kubrick movies -- they may not always get you on first viewing, but they'll draw you back again and again, until you're hooked. I saw 2001, again, in theater, at the age of 16, and thought it boring. But re-watched a dozen years later, on VHS, and was mesmerized. Clockwork Orange was repulsive to many on first viewing, but a lot of them came back. Kubrick films are like Picassos -- they might jar your sensibilities, at first, but their depth and attempt at truth convert you.

      Alongside Kubrick and Bunuel, Hitch is my 3rd obsession. Which is interesting, because the 2 directors were opposite in their approach to their material. Kubrick liked to do as many retakes as possible, until something "new and different" happened - to let his subject grow organically. Coppola works that way too. But Hitchcock - who had a background in both engineering and graphic arts - liked doing all his "filmmaking" before any cameras rolled. He'd buy the rights to a short story, usually out of his own pocket; pare it down to the bare bones so that he could write a treatment with his own themes and motifs around it, storyboard some early ideas, hire a writer with whom he'd work closely throughout the development process (occasionally rewriting the dialog himself, as he did with LIFEBOAT), and then storyboard every single shot and sequence, so there'd be next to NOTHING left on the editing room floor. By the time shooting started, he knew everything that was going to happen.

    Kubrick, apart from being a magnificent film director, is a big influence for directors like David Lynch, Spielberg or even Chris Nolan, I think that he based on 2001: A Space Odyssey to make the movie "Interstellar". Moreover, what makes Kubrick a great filmmaker is the way he repeats over and over again every take in his movies, so that's why I am someone else who's obsessed with his films.

    Kubrick was a chess hustler, nfl lover, aviophobe, and absolute perfectionist. nobody ever had an eye like him from the look magazine photos to the feature films. he knew every crew members job better than they did. revered, respected, but never particularly honored. 2001 is likely the most influential film ever made.

    That’s the first time I heard about Kubrick’s use of green to signify death. That does shed light on the presence of the green space helmet in 2001. The scene where Dave is on his way to disconnect HAL is the only time green is seen on the spacecraft. There were no green spacesuits in the ready room. Where did he get that helmet? On a basic level as the plot moves forward, the jarring contrast of the green helmet and red suit add tension to the scene as a reminder of the harrowing experience he just went through by not having a helmet in the pod. The symbolism of the color green adds even another layer to the movie.

    In regards to the cinematography, he also uses a lot of zooming shots to frame certain characters in a particular state of mind while revealing the context in which they are.
