One day course
The Films of Stanley Kubrick
Sat 19 Nov, 11.30am – 5pm SOLD OUT
“A film is – or should be – more like music than like fiction. It should be a progression of moods and feelings.” – Stanley Kubrick
Stanley Kubrick is widely considered to be one of the greatest filmmakers of all time, having produced some of the most innovative, controversial, and enigmatic films in cinema history.
Led by tutor Dr Connor Winterton, this one-day course explores Kubrick’s influence on cinema and alternatively what influenced his own films; examines Kubrick’s films in regard to style and narrative; and introduces participants to theoretical concepts which can heighten our understanding (and criticism) of Kubrick’s films.
