Description
On this episode, we were joined by authors Robert P. Kolker and Nathan Abrams to discuss Kubrick: An Odyssey, their authoritative new biography on the life and work of the legendary filmmaker behind The Shining, Dr. Strangelove, and 2001: A Space Odyssey. Robert and Nathan spoke to us about the process of rendering the mythology of Kubrick into flesh and blood; the rogues gallery of famous personalities that provided conflicting firsthand accounts; Kubrick's creative and personal life in the UK; and of course, the films, which according to our guests, represent the most rigorous body of work in the history of cinema. Hosted by Ryan Edgington and Matt Hennessey. --- Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!): https://uppbeat.io/t/aura-classica/also-sprach-zarathustra License code: QTA3SKCGWYOG4OVQ
