In Reply to: Stanley Kubrick was a Mensan. posted by edta on June 15, 2004 at 18:47:10:
all of Mr. Chaplin's works are very accessible. You are confusing intelligence with elitism.I would also think that most great directors are of above average intelligence. Bergman, Fellini(sp?), Kurosawa, Capra, Stevens, Nicholas Ray, John Boorman, and (name your favorite here) are just a few examples. They would need be in order to handle both the cinema aspects as well as the storytelling.
IMHO, Kubrick did not make a single wholly successful film after "Clockwork Orange." He substituted length and setting for good storytelling and lost much of his audience. It's a shame that his career ended with "Eyes Wide Shut." He started out so brilliantly and ended up as Zalman King with a bigger budget.
A pity.
