Stanley Kubrick, “Circus performer,” 1948,

Before directing iconic films such as “The Shining,” “2001: A Space Odyssey,”  “ Lolita,” “Full Metal Jacket,” “A Clockwork Orange,” and so on and so forth,   Stanley Kubrick was a staff photographer for Look magazine, shooting feature stories all over his hometown of New York City.

He was just 17 years old when he started in 1945, and he spent the next five years working on stories that focused on New Yorkers and their daily lives.

Looking back at Kubrick’s early photos, one can get a glimpse of what he would he eventually become.

𝟐𝟎𝟎𝟏: 𝐀 𝐒𝐩𝐚𝐜𝐞 𝐎𝐝𝐲𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐲 (1968) directed by Stanley Kubrick | Sci-Fi (2 hr 44 min)⁣

★ ★ ★ ★ ⁣⁣⁣:  recommended viewing <artificial intelligence, evolution, space exploration, technology> ⁣ ⁣ 

I first watched this film in 2013 and recently gave it another viewing during covid lockdowns. It surprises me that it was produced in 1968 because Kubrick's cinematography is 𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘭𝘭 so visually pleasing.  While I would preface this film by saying it's not for everyone, I'd recommend it as a taste-breaker. ⁣ ⁣ 

The film is quite long (almost 3 hrs running time) and has minimal plot developments and dialogue. The overall film experience can feel strange/unsettling sometimes, and I attribute this to 1) multiple subversions of what might be 'typical' film conventions, 2) build-up of musical climaxes matched with inactivity, 3) cinematography that still manages to convey a realistic sense of a science fiction world. ⁣ ⁣ 

Even after a second viewing, I think the film leaves many unanswered questions and a bit of a feeling of 'what did I just watch'? But despite all its disorienting scenes, absurdist elements and layers of symbolism, what I enjoyed most was probably the film's explorations into the infinitude of space. On an uninterrupted viewing of the film, you become increasingly cognisant of the contrast between 1) the miniscule nature of humanity and 2) the significant cosmic relativity that overarches us which is... fascinating, but equally terrifying. ⁣ ⁣ 

This film is followed by a sequel 𝟐𝟎𝟏𝟎: 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐘𝐞𝐚𝐫 𝗪𝐞 𝐌𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐜𝐭 (1984) directed by Peter Hyams.

2001: #ASpaceOdyssey (MGM, 1969). One Sheet (27" X 41") Psychedelic Eye Style. It has been cited as one of the greatest science fiction films ever made and after 45 years, still retains that distinction. But when the film opened in 1968, it created as much controversy as it did sensation. The surreal ending that could be interpreted in a number of different ways captured the imaginations of audiences -- especially the younger generation. It became the thing to do to go to the film to experience the mind-blowing special effects at the film's end. Some enterprising ad men working for MGM capitalized on this when the film's 70 mm prints were re-launched in New York City in 1969 and created two posters that used the tagline, The Ultimate Trip. One poster featured the Starchild that appears in the film's closing moments and the other featured a Psychedelic Eye with the Starchild at it's center. These posters were used exclusively for the campaigns to "wild" posters around New York City and other metropolitan areas. To "wild" meant to post the posters on temporary construction sight walls and anywhere that one could paste a one sheet poster! Thus, these are the rarest of all 2001: A Space Odyssey one sheets. Neither of the two styles of "wilded" posters had the NSS information printed in the borders. #StanleyKubrick —————— 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968) Original One Sheet 27 x 41 Inches . #atthemovies #original #movieposter #filmposter #frame #hollywood #cinema #musthave #mood #vintage #poster #movies #posters #film (at At The Movies Posters) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGUTpyVgjr5/?igshid=1gxcfh93ysw6c
