“What’ll it be?”
The Shining/Kubrick/1980
“The lasting and ultimately most important reputation of a film is not based on reviews, but on what, if anything, people say about it over the years, and on how much affection for it they have.”
Stanley Kubrick (July 26, 1928 – March 7, 1999)
“I don’t like doing interviews. There is always the problem of being misquoted or, what’s even worse, of being quoted exactly.”
Woody Strode, Stanley Kubrick, and Kirk Douglas on the set of Spartacus, 1960.

“I was cured, all right.”
“It’s so hard to do anything that doesn’t owe some kind of debt to what Stanley Kubrick did with music in movies. Inevitably, you’re going to end up doing something that he’s probably already done before. It always seem like we’re falling behind whatever he came up with. Singin’ in the Rain (1952) in A Clockwork Orange (1971) - that was the first time I became so aware of music in movies. So no matter how hard you try to do something new, you’re always following behind.” -P.T. Anderson
