In Reply to: "Stanley Kubrick: A Life in Pictures" posted by rico on October 19, 2005 at 05:46:29:
Scorcese did a documentary on film a few years back, though I can't quite remember the title. It was something like "A Journey through Film, A Personal View." Someone please correct me.His comments on a scene in Barry Lyndon were quite insightful, and indicative of the high regard in which he held Kubrick. It's the scene in which Barry and Lady Lyndon first encounter eachother on the balcony. He noted that, despite its utter lack of dialog, its scant movement and action, it was one of the most powerfully emotional scenes he'd ever seen. He want up a few notches in my book that day.
Fellini, too, before he died, marvelled in an interview on Kubrick's "visual power", and his ability to create totally believable immersible worlds in so many different genres, horror, science fiction, historical, war, and so on.
Follow Ups:
The Scocese documentary nis called "A personal Journey with Martin Scocese Through American Movies". At one point he says, "We are all children of Griffiths and Kubrick".I don't think any other director was more admired by his peers than Kubrick
Yes! Thanks for reminding me of that quote. I'll be sure to refer to it again.
