The Stanley Kubrick Archives Alison Castle ed. 2008 HC Taschen w/Cover--EXC COND

Description: The Stanley Kubrick Archives edited by Alison Castle 2008 Taschen Hard Cover with Dust Jacket Intact in EXCELLENT, LIKE NEW condition. This book is in amazing shape, with no rips, tears, stains, or blemishes. The dust jacket is fully intact, and is also in great shape. This book is the version that does NOT include the CD and archival filmstrip...otherwise, it would be priced MUCH higher. The pages still have sharp corners and edges (shown in the last two pictures), and the binding is in pristine condition as well. It appears that the book has never been fully opened, based on the condition of the spine. If you would like additional pictures before you decide whether or not to buy, I'm more than happy to oblige. The book is 544 pages, and very heavy. Because of the price, USPS Media Mail is not an option, as it cannot be insured with that shipping method. As a result, the item will be shipped via USPS Priority Mail / UPS Ground / FedEx (depending on cost), it will include insurance (handling cost of $3 is included to partially defray the cost of insurance), and comes from a smoke-free home. All pictures are of the actual item(s). ------------- Book Content Description: This is the first book to explore Stanley Kubrick’s archives and the most comprehensive study of the filmmaker to date. In 1968, when Stanley Kubrick was asked to comment on the metaphysical significance of 2001: A Space Odyssey, he replied: “It’s not a message I ever intended to convey in words. 2001 is a nonverbal experience…. I tried to create a visual experience, one that bypasses verbalized pigeonholing and directly penetrates the subconscious with an emotional and philosophic content.” The philosophy behind Part 1 of The Stanley Kubrick Archives borrows from this line of thinking: from the opening sequence of Killer’s Kiss to the final frames of Eyes Wide Shut, Kubrick’s complete films are presented chronologically and wordlessly via frame enlargements. A completely nonverbal experience. The second part of the book brings to life the creative process of Kubrick’s filmmaking by presenting a remarkable collection of mostly unseen material from his archives, including photographs, props, posters, artwork, set designs, sketches, correspondence, documents, screenplays, drafts, notes, and shooting schedules. Accompanying the visual material are essays by noted Kubrick scholars, articles written by and about Kubrick, and a selection of Kubrick’s best interviews.
