    Se me ha hecho muy corto, pero escuchar a Kubrick hablando de su trabajo es un lujo y la escasa duración de la entrevista está bien aprovechada.

    There's nothing new here but there are some things to enjoy if you are Kubrick fanatic.

    Nuovo documentario che va ad aggiungersi alla folta di rappresentanza di opere (video e letterarie) che raccontano e/o analizzano l’opera del compianto maestro americano. Qui ci troviamo a metà strada, poiché il regista Monro (ammiratore del regista e di una certa critica cinematografica che fu) recupera e digitalizza gli audio ritrovati delle celebri interviste che il direttore della rivista francese “Positif”, Michel Ciment, fece a Stanley a cavallo fra gli anni settanta e ottanta. Ciment ne trasse un libro che è diventato un must per i fan del regista di “Arancia Meccanica”, grazie al fatto che all’epoca Kubrick concedeva rarissimamente interviste ed era un privilegio che godeva come un’esclusiva il critico francese. Il documentario ripropone le voci del regista e…

    Aquest documental es el Golden Ticket que et permet entrar a la fàbrica de xocolata. Sempre que es parla de Kubrick es fa obvi que es un dels millors directors de la història, i per fi, descomposa el seu estil, el seu mètode i les seves idees en aquesta entrevista inèdita.

    L'escoltes amb la pell de gallina i revises les seves imatges amb la mateixa sensació com si fos la primera vegada.

    Básicamente han cogido las conversaciones grabadas de Kubrick y las han acompañado de fotos. Una oportunidad perdida de hacer un documental más relevante.

    " إن إخراج أي فيلم، إذا حاولت القيام به بشكل صحيح، ليس دائمًا ممتعًا، لأنك في صراع مع محيطك. إذا حاولت إتقانه و كنت مهتماً به، فهو ليس بالمتعة الكبرى في العالم. سيكون أمراً مرضيا للغاية، أحيانا، لكنه يتطلب الكثير من الجهد و حتما هناك الكثير من التوترات الشخصية التي تنشب بين الجميع.

    I was really looking forward to this as the documentary contains some never-heard-before tapes with interviews of Kubrick with the french film critic Michel Ciment. 

    There is an ocean of material on Kubrick and a good 80% of it is quite repetitive and frankly quite boring too, but every now and then it’s possible to find something which gives you an actual interesting insight not only on the films, but also on the man and his process.

    I think this documentary is one of them. The tape interviews are quite unique not only because it’s Kubrick talking about his own films and how he made them, but because he talks about WHY he made them and why he picks certain…

    Tom Cruise che dice di essere chiamato nella notte solo dalla Kidman e da Kubrick mi ha fatto ridere. Mi sa che Stanley (sì, mio caro e vecchio amico d'infanzia, perché dopo Tom Cruise che fa da intellettuale penso che valga tutto) fosse ubriaco al momento della scelta del protagonista di Eyes Wide Shut...infatti poi Tom è finito in film in cui cade da treni e si lancia da elicotteri.

    Mubi review:
    Naturally, I like what was being said, the movies being shown, the music being played, and the subject matter as a whole. But documentaries, contrary to what the name may suggest having the responsibility, or at least the opportunity to present much more than the actual footage. In the end, every deliberate choice, apart from what to show now or later was serviceable at the best of times and retracting at the worst of times.

    Notas de um brigadeiro:
