Stanley Kubrick was born on July 26, 1928, in Manhattan, New York City. The son of Jacob Leonard Kubrick, a physician, and Sadie Gertrude Kubrick, Stanley grew up in the Bronx during the Great Depression. From an early age, Kubrick showed a keen interest in the arts, particularly photography and chess, two passions that would significantly influence his later work in film. Kubrick's father introduced him to photography when he gifted him a camera for his thirteenth birthday. This sparked a lifelong fascination with visual storytelling. As a teenager, Kubrick became an avid photographer, often skipping school to take pictures around New York City. His talent was recognized early when he sold a photograph of a news vendor reacting to the death of President Franklin D. Roosevelt to Look magazine in 1945. Despite his artistic inclinations, Kubrick was not a particularly strong student academically. He graduated from William Howard Taft High School in 1945 with a lackluster grade average. However, his poor academic performance did not hinder his intellectual development. Kubrick was a voracious reader and autodidact, consuming books on a wide range of subjects that would later inform his filmmaking. Early Career in Photography After high school, Kubrick's passion for photography led him to a job as a staff photographer for Look magazine. This position provided him with invaluable experience in visual storytelling and composition. During his time at Look, Kubrick honed his skills in capturing human drama and emotion through images, a talent that would later translate beautifully to his work in cinema. Kubrick's photographic work for Look was diverse, ranging from slice-of-life pieces about New York City to photo essays on celebrities and athletes. His ability to capture the essence of a subject or situation in a single frame was remarkable for someone so young. This period of Kubrick's life was crucial in developing his eye for detail and his understanding of visual narrative, elements that would become hallmarks of his filmmaking style. Transition to Filmmaking Kubrick's transition from photography to filmmaking was gradual but decisive. In 1951, at the age of 23, he used his savings to finance his first film, a 16-minute documentary called "Day of the Fight." The film, which followed a boxer named Walter Cartier on the day of a fight, was based on a photo-essay Kubrick had previously done for Look magazine. The success of "Day of the Fight," which was purchased by RKO Pictures for distribution, encouraged Kubrick to pursue filmmaking full-time. He followed this with two more short documentaries: "Flying Padre" (1951) and "The Seafarers" (1953). These early works, while modest in scope, showcased Kubrick's emerging talent for visual storytelling and his ability to capture authentic human moments on film. Early Feature Films Kubrick's first feature-length film, "Fear and Desire" (1953), was a low-budget independent production about a fictional war. While the film was not a commercial success and Kubrick later dismissed it as amateurish, it demonstrated his ambition and willingness to tackle complex themes. His second feature, "Killer's Kiss" (1955), showed significant improvement in terms of storytelling and visual style. The film's noir-ish atmosphere and inventive use of New York City locations caught the attention of critics and industry insiders alike. It was Kubrick's third feature, "The Killing" (1956), that truly announced him as a filmmaker to watch. This taut, nonlinear heist film showcased Kubrick's growing mastery of cinematic technique and his ability to elicit strong performances from his actors. The film's innovative narrative structure, which told the story of a racetrack robbery from multiple perspectives, was ahead of its time and influenced many later filmmakers. Hollywood and "Paths of Glory" The success of "The Killing" caught the attention of Hollywood, and Kubrick was hired by Kirk Douglas's production company to direct "Paths of Glory" (1957). This powerful anti-war film, set during World War I, was Kubrick's first major studio production and is considered by many to be one of the greatest war films ever made. "Paths of Glory" showcased Kubrick's ability to combine stunning visuals with deeply emotional storytelling. The film's famous tracking shots through the trenches and its unflinching portrayal of military injustice demonstrated Kubrick's growing confidence as a director and his willingness to tackle controversial subjects. "Spartacus" and the Move to England Kubrick's next project was the epic historical drama "Spartacus" (1960), again starring Kirk Douglas. While the film was a commercial and critical success, Kubrick found the experience of working within the Hollywood studio system frustrating. He had less control over the production than he was accustomed to, and this experience reinforced his desire for complete artistic freedom. Following "Spartacus," Kubrick made the decision to move to England. This move allowed him greater creative control and distance from Hollywood interference. It also marked the beginning of what many consider to be his most creatively fertile period. The Controversial "Lolita" Kubrick's first film after moving to England was an adaptation of Vladimir Nabokov's controversial novel "Lolita" (1962). The film's subject matter – the obsession of a middle-aged man with a young girl – was highly controversial for its time. Kubrick's handling of the material was masterful, managing to convey the story's themes while navigating the strict censorship of the era. "Lolita" demonstrated Kubrick's ability to adapt complex literary works for the screen and his skill in drawing nuanced performances from his actors. The film also showcased his dark sense of humor, a trait that would become more pronounced in his later works. "Dr. Strangelove" and Cold War Satire Kubrick's next film, "Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb" (1964), is widely regarded as one of the greatest comedies ever made. This biting satire of Cold War politics and nuclear paranoia showcased Kubrick's ability to tackle serious subjects with humor and irony. The film's innovative mix of comedy and terror, along with Peter Sellers' tour-de-force performance in multiple roles, cemented Kubrick's reputation as a filmmaker of extraordinary range and vision. "Dr. Strangelove" also marked Kubrick's first collaboration with cinematographer Gilbert Taylor, resulting in the stark, documentary-like visual style that added to the film's impact. "2001: A Space Odyssey" - A Cinematic Revolution Kubrick's next project would be his most ambitious yet. "2001: A Space Odyssey" (1968) is considered by many to be his masterpiece and one of the most influential films ever made. This epic science fiction film, co-written with author Arthur C. Clarke, pushed the boundaries of special effects and narrative storytelling in cinema. "2001" was a testament to Kubrick's perfectionism and attention to detail. He spent years researching and developing the film, consulting with scientists and engineers to ensure the accuracy of its depictions of space travel. The result was a film of unprecedented visual beauty and philosophical depth. While initially polarizing critics, "2001" has since been recognized as a landmark in cinema history. Its groundbreaking special effects, innovative use of music, and open-ended narrative continue to influence filmmakers to this day. "A Clockwork Orange" and Controversy Kubrick followed "2001" with "A Clockwork Orange" (1971), an adaptation of Anthony Burgess's novel. This disturbing exploration of violence and free will sparked significant controversy due to its graphic content. The film's unflinching portrayal of violence and its complex moral questions demonstrated Kubrick's willingness to challenge audiences and tackle difficult subjects. The controversy surrounding "A Clockwork Orange" was so intense that Kubrick himself requested that the film be withdrawn from distribution in the United Kingdom after receiving death threats. This self-imposed ban remained in place until after Kubrick's death. Period Drama: "Barry Lyndon" Kubrick's next film, "Barry Lyndon" (1975), was a marked departure from his previous work. This meticulous adaptation of William Makepeace Thackeray's novel about an 18th-century Irish adventurer showcased Kubrick's versatility as a filmmaker. "Barry Lyndon" is renowned for its stunning cinematography, with Kubrick using specially adapted lenses to film scenes by candlelight. The film's painterly compositions and attention to period detail set new standards for historical dramas. While initially underappreciated, "Barry Lyndon" has since been recognized as one of Kubrick's finest achievements. "The Shining" and Horror Redefined Kubrick's foray into the horror genre, "The Shining" (1980), based on Stephen King's novel, became one of his most popular and enduring films. Kubrick's adaptation took significant liberties with the source material, creating a unique and deeply unsettling psychological horror film. "The Shining" showcased Kubrick's mastery of atmosphere and tension, as well as his innovative use of the then-new Steadicam technology. The film's ambiguous narrative and rich symbolism have made it a subject of endless analysis and interpretation. "Full Metal Jacket" and the Vietnam War After a seven-year hiatus, Kubrick returned with "Full Metal Jacket" (1987), a powerful and unconventional take on the Vietnam War. The film's structure, divided between boot camp training and combat in Vietnam, offered a unique perspective on the dehumanizing effects of war. "Full Metal Jacket" is notable for its intense performances, particularly from R. Lee Ermey as the drill instructor, and for its unflinching portrayal of the psychological toll of warfare. The film further cemented Kubrick's reputation as a master of every genre he tackled. Final Work: "Eyes

The horror podcast where we discuss the BIG questions of spooky literature and film: What's the symbolism of slime? Is there a zombie zeitgeist? What's your weapon choice to survive a slasher?
Anyone can summarize a horror movie but there's SO much more to horror than the list of shrills and kills. Horror is the genre pushing boundaries and takes society to task with monsters and mayhem, slashing and sex/gender play.

Shelley Duvall: A Journey Through Stardom and Silence Early Life and Career Beginnings Shelley Alexis Duvall was born on July 7, 1949, in Fort Worth, Texas. She was the first child of Bobbie Ruth Crawford, a real estate broker, and Robert Richardson Duvall, a cattle auctioneer turned lawyer. Her early years were spent in various parts of Texas before settling in Houston at the age of five. An artistic and energetic child, Duvall earned the nickname "Manic Mouse" from her mother. Initially aspiring to be a scientist, she graduated from Waltrip High School in 1967 and attended South Texas Junior College, majoring in nutrition and diet therapy. Duvall's entry into acting was serendipitous. In 1970, she was discovered by director Robert Altman at a party. Captivated by her unique presence, Altman cast her in "Brewster McCloud" (1970). This marked the beginning of a fruitful collaboration with Altman, leading to roles in films such as "McCabe & Mrs. Miller" (1971), "Thieves Like Us" (1974), and the critically acclaimed "Nashville" (1975). Rise to Stardom Duvall's breakthrough came with Altman's "3 Women" (1977), where her performance earned her the Best Actress award at the Cannes Film Festival. Her distinct look and quirky charm made her a standout in Hollywood. She became widely recognized for her role as Wendy Torrance in Stanley Kubrick's horror classic "The Shining" (1980), where her portrayal of a terrorized wife opposite Jack Nicholson cemented her place in cinematic history. In addition to "The Shining," Duvall starred in "Popeye" (1980) alongside Robin Williams, playing Olive Oyl. Her collaboration with Altman continued with roles in "Buffalo Bill and the Indians, or Sitting Bull's History Lesson" (1976) and "3 Women" (1977). Producing and Later Work Duvall's creative talents extended beyond acting. In the 1980s, she produced and hosted the children's television series "Faerie Tale Theatre," which featured adaptations of classic fairy tales. The series was a success and showcased her ability to blend whimsy with serious production work. Despite her success, Duvall's career faced challenges. She sporadically worked in acting throughout the 1990s, with notable roles in Steven Soderbergh's "The Underneath" (1995) and Jane Campion's "The Portrait of a Lady" (1996). Her last performance before a long hiatus was in "Manna from Heaven" (2002). Hiatus and Return In the early 2000s, Duvall retreated from Hollywood and lived a reclusive life in Texas. Her absence from the public eye sparked rumors and concerns about her mental health. In a candid interview in 2023, Duvall shared insights into her life away from the spotlight and her struggles with mental health issues. She expressed a desire to return to acting, which culminated in her role in the indie horror film "The Forest Hills" (2022), marking her first appearance in over two decades. Legacy and Death Shelley Duvall's unique career is a testament to her versatility and talent. She was an icon of 1970s and 1980s cinema, known for her distinctive roles and collaborations with some of the most influential directors of the time. Her return to film in "The Forest Hills" was a reminder of her enduring talent and passion for acting. On July 11, 2024, Shelley Duvall passed away at the age of 75. Her death marks the end of an era, but her legacy lives on through her memorable performances and contributions to film and television. Shelley Duvall's journey through stardom and silence is a poignant reminder of the complexities of fame and the resilience required to navigate it. From her serendipitous discovery to her iconic roles and eventual retreat from Hollywood, Duvall's life was as eclectic and compelling as the characters she portrayed. Her recent return to acting and her reflections on her career offer a fitting coda to a life dedicated to the arts. Thanks for listening and remember to like and share wherever you get your podcasts.
