Interviews with Kubrick's friends and family

See interviews with members of Stanley Kubrick's family, close friends, collaborators and colleagues. These films explore the ways in which Kubrick found and developed the stories for his films, and how he chose and used music.

We are immensely grateful to all the participants for their generosity and honesty in contributing to the interviews.

This project was undertaken by Pamela Glintenkamp, oral historian and video producer. We are also indebted to the BBFC and to Warner Bros. Entertainment Ltd. for their generous financial support to make these films possible.
