In 1963 Stanley Kubrick declared, "Dr. Strangelove came from my
desire to do something about the nuclear nightmare." Thirty years
later, he was preparing to film another story about the human
impulse for self-destruction. Unfortunately, the director passed
away in 1999, before his project could be fully realized. However,
fellow visionary Steven Spielberg took on the venture, and A.I.
Artificial Intelligence debuted in theaters two years after
Kubrick's death. While Kubrick's concept shares similarities with
the finished film, there are significant differences between his
screenplay and Spielberg's production. In Kubrick's Story,
Spielberg's Film: A.I. Artificial Intelligence, Julian Rice
examines the intellectual sources and cinematic processes that
expressed the extraordinary ideas of one great artist through the
distinctive vision of another. A.I. is decidedly a Kubrick film in
its concern for the future of the world, and it is both a Kubrick
and a Spielberg film in the alienation of its central character.
However, Spielberg's alienated characters evolve through
friendships, while Kubrick's protagonists are markedly alone. Rice
explores how the directors' disparate sensibilities aligned and
where they diverged. By analyzing Kubrick's treatment and
Spielberg's finished film, Rice compares the imaginations of two
gifted but very different filmmakers and draws conclusions about
their unique conceptions. Kubrick's Story, Spielberg's Film is a
fascinating look into the creative process of two of cinema's most
profound auteurs and will appeal to scholars of film as well as to
fans of both directors.
