Stanley was considered intelligent, despite poor grades at school. Hoping that a change of scenery would produce better academic performance, Kubrick's father sent him in to Pasadena, California, to stay with his uncle, Martin Perveler. Returning to the Stanley Kubrick: A Biography in for his last year of grammar school, there seemed to be little change in his attitude or his results. Hoping to find something to interest his son, Jack introduced Stanley to chess, with the desired result. Kubrick took to the game passionately, and quickly became a skilled player. Chess would become an Stanley Kubrick: A Biography device for Kubrick in later years, often as a tool for dealing with recalcitrant actors, but also as an artistic motif in his films. Jack Kubrick's decision to give his son a camera for his thirteenth birthday would be an even wiser move: Kubrick became an avid photographer, and would often make trips around New York taking photographs which he would develop in a friend's darkroom. After selling an unsolicited photograph to Look Magazine, Kubrick began to associate with their staff photographers, and at the age of seventeen was offered a job as an apprentice photographer. In the next few Stanley Kubrick: A Biography, Kubrick had regular assignments for "Look", and would become a voracious movie-goer. Together with friend Alexander SingerKubrick planned a move into film, and in sank his savings into making the documentary Day of the Fight This was followed by several short commissioned documentaries Flying Padreand The Seafarersbut by attracting investors and hustling chess games in Central Park, Kubrick was able to make Fear and Desire in California.

I certify that the intellectual content of this this thesis is the product of my own work and that all the assistance received in preparing this thesis and sources have been acknowledged. 2 Dedication For my parents, who lit the flame. 3 List of Contents Title Page 1 Statement of Originality 2 Dedication 3 Abstract 5 Introduction - Adaptation and Adaptation Theory; 6 i) Fidelity 10 ii) Intertextuality 11 iii) Raw Material Adaptation 14 iv) The place of the auteur in adaptation studies 16 The Kubrickian Tenets of Adaptation Chapter 1 – Narrative and Structure. 18 Chapter 2 – Visual Technique 35 Chapter 3 – Actor Performance 60 Chapter 4 – Music Selection, Arrangement and Design 85 In Conclusion 103 4 Abstract In this thesis I examine the scholarship of Adaptation Theory, commencing with the seminal work of George Bluestone in 1957, up to and including the more recent approaches of Kyle Meikle (2013), Thomas Leitch (2007), Linda Hutcheon (2006) and both Brian McFarlane (1996) and Karen Kline (1996). Each of these theorists has grappled with the overarching concept of fidelity, the status of film as autonomous art, the status of film authorship, and textual primacy. Secondly, I apply the current scholarship on Adaptation Theory to the work of film auteur, Stanley Kubrick.

  • Collaborative Authorship in Stanley Kubrick's Films
    Voices and noises: Collaborative authorship in Stanley Kubrick’s films Manca Perko Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of East Anglia School of Art, Media and American Studies January 2019 This copy of the thesis has been supplied on condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognise that its copyright rests with the author and that use of any information derived therefrom must be in accordance with current UK Copyright Law. In addition, any quotation or extract must include full attribution. Abstract This thesis sets out to challenge the mythology surrounding Kubrick’s filmmaking practice. The still dominant auteur approach in Kubrick studies identifies the director’s filmmaking practice as autonomous, with little creative input from his crew members. Following the recent shift in research that focuses on the collaborative nature of Kubrick’s working practice, I argue for a different perspective on creative practice in film production. The working process in Kubrick’s crews is shown to exhibit strong collaborative features and to encourage individual creative input. This thesis is based on the examination of historical evidence acquired from the Stanley Kubrick Archive in London and an extensive collection of mediated and personally conducted interviews with Kubrick’s collaborators. The historical discourse analysis employed in this thesis is rooted in New Film History methodologies and, with its findings, leads to an alternative perspective on film history. The challenge to the accepted view (or myth) of Kubrick is achieved with the use of discourse sources from production and from the archive, presented in the form of stories from pre-production to the promotion stage of film production.

  • Kubrick: a True Artist. an Interview with Christiane Kubrick and Jan Harlan
    KUBRICK: A TRUE ARTIST. AN INTERVIEW WITH CHRISTIANE KUBRICK AND JAN HARLAN Artur Piskorz Ph. D. Pedagogical University in Krakow, Poland English Department ABSTRACT In May 2014 an exhibition opened in the National Musem in Krakow, Poland, devoted to one of the greatest filmmakers – Stanley Kubrick. Christiane, Kubrick’s wife, and her brother, Jan Harlan, himself a long time collaborator of Kubrick’s, have selected a few hundred items related to individual films and put them on display, so providing a once in a lifetime experience for anybody wanting to immerse themselves in the Kubrickian universe. In the interview, Christiane Kubrick and Jan Harlan discuss the idea behind the exhibition as well as their life and work with the late great director. Key words: Kubrick, exhibition, Krakow, Christiane, Harlan, interview. RESUMEN «Kubrick: un verdadero artista. Entrevista con Christiane Kubrick y Jan Harlan». El Museo Nacional de Cracovia inauguró en mayo de 2014 una exposición sobre Stanley Kubrick, que supuso una oportunidad única para el visitante interesado en el universo del director. En ella se exhiben varios cientos de objetos y referencias coleccionados por su viuda, Christiane, 109 y el hermano de ésta, Jan Harlan, quien a su vez fue un estrecho colaborador suyo. En la entrevista que sigue, ambos comentan la idea que dio origen a la exposición, así como sus experiencias personales y profesionales con el gran cineasta fallecido. Palabras clave: Kubrick, exposición, Cracovia, Christiane, Harlan, entrevista. The untimely death of Stanley Kubrick 15 years ago was a terrible blow to anybody interested in cinema. A mythical figure, a passionate moralist, a visionary filmmaker whose films redefined film art – it would be quite easy to compile a lengthy list of similar descriptions.

  • MAKING the SHINING Or How Kubrick Copied a Single Picture Into the Viewer’S Mind by Using the TV Mosaic
    MAKING THE SHINING Or How Kubrick Copied A Single Picture Into The Viewer’s Mind By Using The TV Mosaic By Single:Boy@92 February 2012 ‘…Thank god for Vivian's Making the Shining, she is a prodigy. To think she photographed that at age 17, with a large heavy Aaton 16mm (I'm assuming) and did a magnificent job of filming. A truly amazing job, absolutely astounding, incredible, precocious. I often wonder what line of work she went into later in life, she probably could have been an amazing cinematographer’ IMDB-Comment on MAKING THE SHINING ABSTRACT -While reading, please keep in mind my first language isn’t English. Also note this text needs to be seen as a first draft. Thank you.- The main subject of this article is to show that everything in the 35-minute documentary MAKING THE SHINING was choreographed and scripted by Stanley Kubrick. But as the documentary is intensely connected with Kubrick’s other work -in the broadest sense of the word-, I’m kind of forced to tell you first why Kubrick choreographed the documentary at all. This I’ll do in a so called ‘lead up’, written in two parts. The first part is basically about, what I think, is the starting point of a Kubrick- film. The second part generally is about which attitude one should have towards MAKING THE SHINING and THE SHINING. I’ll try to write the ‘lead up’ to the point and elaborate on things only when I think it’s necessary. Eventually the lead up results in the ‘main part’ about the relationship between the documentary and the actual film.

  • Stanley Kubrick: Producers and Production Companies
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by De Montfort University Open Research Archive Stanley Kubrick: Producers and Production Companies Thesis submitted by James Fenwick In partial fulfilment of the requirements for the award of Doctor of Philosophy De Montfort University, September 2017 1 Abstract This doctoral thesis examines filmmaker Stanley Kubrick’s role as a producer and the impact of the industrial contexts upon the role and his independent production companies. The thesis represents a significant intervention into the understanding of the much-misunderstood role of the producer by exploring how business, management, working relationships and financial contexts influenced Kubrick’s methods as a producer. The thesis also shows how Kubrick contributed to the transformation of industrial practices and the role of the producer in Hollywood, particularly in areas of legal authority, promotion and publicity, and distribution. The thesis also assesses the influence and impact of Kubrick’s methods of producing and the structure of his production companies in the shaping of his own reputation and brand of cinema. The thesis takes a case study approach across four distinct phases of Kubrick’s career. The first is Kubrick’s early years as an independent filmmaker, in which he made two privately funded feature films (1951-1955). The second will be an exploration of the Harris-Kubrick Pictures Corporation and its affiliation with Kirk Douglas’ Bryna Productions (1956-1962). Thirdly, the research will examine Kubrick’s formation of Hawk Films and Polaris Productions in the 1960s (1962-1968), with a deep focus on the latter and the vital role of vice-president of the company.
