Kubrick and Control is an examination of authority, order, and
independence in the films directed by Stanley Kubrick, as well as
in his personal life and working habits. This study explores the
ways in which these central preoccupations develop and reformulate
through the course of Kubrick's career, as he moved from genre to
genre and shifted stories, locations, time periods, scope, and
technical facilities. Separating the productions in accordance to
their wider filmic classifications, the individual chapters examine
a variety of productions, allowing for a categorical as well as a
developmental approach to the works. In addition, following
concurrently with each individual film discussed, details about
Kubrick's life and evolving directorial practice are recounted in
relation to these same concerns. In studying the stylistic and
narrative features of his work, examples illustrate how Kubrick
took these themes and applied them consistently yet with
significant variation, manifest in relation to mise-en-scène
construction (how Kubrick composed his images); characterization
(individuals establishing, exerting, seeking, and/or abusing their
authority); narrative (stories about characters and situations
dependent upon order and control); and the actual filmmaking
processes of the director (Kubrick was both praised and damned for
his authorial management and obsession with order and perfection).
