Artificial Intelligence\u003c\/i\u003e (Steven Spielberg, 2001). Naremore offers provocative analyses of each of Kubrick's films, considering his emphasis on the absurdity of combat, as in\u003ci\u003e Paths of Glory\u003c\/i\u003e (1957) and \u003ci\u003eFull Metal Jacket \u003c\/i\u003e(1987), the failure of scientific reasoning, as in \u003ci\u003e2001\u003c\/i\u003e (1968), and the fascistic impulses in masculine sexuality, as in \u003ci\u003eDr Strangelove \u003c\/i\u003e(1964) and \u003ci\u003eEyes Wide Shut\u003c\/i\u003e (1999). He argues that while Kubrick was a voracious intellectual and a life-long autodidact, the fascination of his work has less to do with the ideas it espouses than with the emotions it evokes.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eCombining close readings with new insights into the production histories and cultural contexts of key films, Naremore provides a concise yet thorough discussion that will be useful to students of Kubrick's filmmaking and cinephiles who seek a deeper insight into the work of this perfectionist genius.\u003cbr\u003eRevised throughout, this new edition also includes a fully updated bibliography of critical writings on Kubrick's cinema.","brand":"Ships in 10 to 15 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46631882096798,"sku":"UBD-9781839023996","price":57.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9781839023996.jpg?v=1774311018","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9781839023996","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
