Description de l'ouvrage :
A Critical Companion to Stanley Kubrick offers a thorough and detailed study of the films of the legendary director. Labeled a recluse, a provocateur, and a perfectionist, Kubrick revolutionized filmmaking, from the use of music in film, narrative pacing and structure, to depictions of war and violence. An unparalleled visionary, his work continues to influence contemporary cinema and visual culture. This book delves into the complexities of his work and examines the wide range of topics and the multiple interpretations that his films inspire. The eighteen chapters in this book use a wide range of methodologies and explore new trends of research in film studies, providing a series of unique and novel perspectives on all of Kubrick’s thirteen feature films, from Fear and Desire (1953) to Eyes Wide Shut (1999), as well as his work on A.I. Artificial Intelligence (Steven Spielberg, 2001).

À propos de l'auteur :
Elsa Colombani received her PhD from the University of Paris Nanterre and currently works as an independent scholar.

Revue de Presse :
It is a testament to the enigmatic cinema of Stanley Kubrick and to the editorial wisdom of Elsa Colombani that this anthology brings so many new and crucial insights to the fore. A Critical Companion to Stanley Kubrick features an array of international scholars interpreting films that we know well, but that—thanks to this book—we learn how much we still have to learn. Brimming with original analysis and illustrating a consistent critical awareness of the area, these essays are required reading, for those new to Kubrick and also to those who have long known him.

-- Gary D. Rhodes, University of Central Florida

A smart, erudite collection of essays, this Critical Companion not only serves as an introduction to Kubrick but also shows how many new and intriguing things can be said about him. It will sharpen our understanding of one of the cinema's most widely discussed directors.

-- James Naremore, author of On Kubrick
