Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968) is widely regarded
as one of the best films ever made. It has been celebrated for its
beauty and mystery, its realistic depiction of space travel and
dazzling display of visual effects, the breathtaking scope of its
story, which reaches across millions of years, and the
thought-provoking depth of its meditation on evolution, technology
and humanity's encounters with the unknown. 2001 has been described
as the most expensive avant-garde movie ever made and as a
psychedelic trip, a unique expression of the spirit of the 1960s
and as a timeless masterpiece. Peter Kramer's insightful study
explores 2001's complex origins, the unique shape it took and the
extraordinary impact it made on contemporary audiences, drawing on
new research in the Stanley Kubrick Archive to challenges many of
the widely-held assumptions about the film. This edition includes a
new afterword by the author.
