Stanley Kubrick: A Life in Pictures
The Stanley Kubrick Collection features some of the most astounding, confounding, disturbing, demanding, riveting, mind-boggling and mind-bending films every made. This companion documentary, Stanley Kubrick: A Life in Pictures is an essential piece of any serious film buff's DVD collection and receives my highest recommendation as a fascinating look at the career and life of one the most important cinema artist ever. The film, at over two hours, is a wealth of detail and serves as a virtual seminar in film artistry and technique.

2001: A Space Odyssey
"The 9000 series is the most reliable computer ever made. No 9000 computer has ever made a mistake or distorted information. We are all, by any practical definition of the words, foolproof and incapable of error."

A Clockwork Orange
"You needn't take it any further, sir. You've proved to me that all this killing and ultra-violence is wrong, wrong, and terribly wrong! I've learned me lesson, sir. I've seen now what I've never seen before. I'm cured, praise God!"

Article: A Real Horrorshow Night
Getting to see A Clockwork Orange on the big screen these days is a rare occurrence. To see it with Malcolm McDowell in attendance is a once in a lifetime experience. Daniel Hirshleifer managed to get a ticket to this sold-out show at the American Cinematheque (www.americancinematheque.com). Read his thoughts and recollections of the night. |

Eyes Wide Shut
Bill: Victor... the woman lying dead in the morgue... was the woman at the party.
Victor: Yes.
Bill: Well, Victor, maybe I'm missing something here. You called it a fake, a charade. Do you mind telling me what kind of... charade ends with somebody turning up dead?

Article: A.I. Actual Interview: A Chat with DVD Producer Mark Rowen
A.I. is sure to be one of the biggest DVD releases of 2002. But putting together these million-sellers is no easy task. You need some real intelligence to get them to come out right. Mark Rowen, who oversees production for all of the DVDs at DreamWorks, is especially proud of his work on this particular release. He sat down with us to talk a smidge about Stanley, Steven, and a little known composer with the last name Williams. Who is he again? |
Article: A.I. (i.e., Pinocchio)
A child, real or not, pleading for the love of his mother could soften the hardest shell, crack the toughest tough-guy, and let's face it, the wounded young, a theme that plays well in movies, happens to be Spielberg's forte. |
Article: A.I. Revisited
...if the movie has to be explained by brilliant cinephiles holding the blueprints to the true meaning of this or that ("Well, in Kubrick's original draft, yadda, yadda, yadda...."), then kids, the film fails miserably. Don'tcha think? |
