Director of some of the most controversial films of the twentieth
century, Stanley Kubrick created a reputation as a Hollywood
outsider as well as a cinematic genius. His diverse yet relatively
small oeuvre--he directed only thirteen films during a career that
spanned more than four decades--covers a broad range of the themes
that shaped his century and continues to shape the twenty-first:
war and crime, gender relations and class conflict, racism, and the
fate of individual agency in a world of increasing social
surveillance and control.
In "Depth of Field," leading screenwriters and scholars analyze
Kubrick's films from a variety of perspectives. They examine such
groundbreaking classics as "Dr. Strangelove" and "2001: A Space
Odyssey" and later films whose critical reputations are still in
flux. "Depth of Field "ends with three viewpoints on Kubrick's
final film, "Eyes Wide Shut," placing it in the contexts of film
history, the history and theory of psychoanalysis, and the
sociology of sex and power. Probing Kubrick's whole body of work,
"Depth of Field" is the first truly multidisciplinary study of one
of the most innovative and controversial filmmakers of the
twentieth century.
