Description:
Stanley Kubrick ranks among the most important American filmmakers of his generation, but his work is often misunderstood because its subject matter is diverse and it seems to lack thematic and tonal consistency. Thomas Nelson's perceptive and comprehensive study rescues Kubrick from the hostility of auteurist critics and discovers the roots of a Kubrickan aesthetic, which Nelson defines as the "aesthetics of contingency". After analyzing how this aesthetic develops and manifests itself in the early works, Nelson devotes individual chapters to Lolita, Dr. Strangelove, 2001: A Space Odyssey, A Clockwork Orange, Barry Lyndon, and The Shining. For this expanded edition, he has added chapters on Full Metal Jacket and Eyes Wide Shut, and, following the director's recent death, reconsiders his work as a whole. By placing Kubrick in a historical and theoretical context, this study is a reliable guide into -- and out of -- Stanley Kubrick's cinematic maze.
