The second edition of Mario Falsetto's extensive analysis of
Kubrick's films carefully examines the filmmaker's oeuvre in its
entirety--from smaller, early films ("The Killing") through
mid-career masterpieces ("Dr. Strangelove; 2001: A Space Odyssey; A
Clockwork Orange"), later films such as "Full Metal Jacket," and
his final work, 1999's "Eyes Wide Shut." The author, offering close
readings supported by precise shot descriptions, shows us how
Kubrick's body of work represents a stylistically and thematically
consistent cinematic vision, one that merges formal experimentation
with great philosophical complexity.
Falsetto explores many of Kubrick's often-used devices,
including the long-take aesthetic, voice-overs, and moving camera,
and discusses the thematic uses to which these techniques are
applied. Finally, he presents the very first formal analysis of
"Eyes Wide Shut," the director's final, very much underrated
masterwork.
