Riassunto

This volume offers a detailed analysis of Stanley Kubrick's major films beginning with "The Killing" (1956) and ending with "Full Metal Jacket" (1987). Students of film as well as the general public should be interested in learning new strategies for watching these films, since there are few instructive books on this master filmmaker. Kubrick's mastery of technique and the complexity of form in his films is always at the service of intricate thematics and organisational coherence. Falsetto's contention in this volume is that Kubrick's work revolves around particular dualities of meaning: subjective/objective, classical/modernist, rational/irrational, and so forth. Despite the complexity of the films, they remain accessible because they are entertaining, while forceful, serious and inventive. Kubrick is an artist who uses the medium of film to communicate many ideas about the world. He is a genuine auteur director.
