Absolutely unparalleled access to the creative soul of this “reclusive” genius. This is far greater than an internet jewel. It provides greater insight into Kubrick, in 75 minutes, than any biography ever could.

Hearing him speak at length also makes me believe that Peter Sellars’ “voice” as President Merkin Muffley in STRANGELOVE was surely an impression of Stanley Kubrick himself.
