Photographic Credits
“A fascinating book.”
“By exploring the images captured by the teenager standing behind the still photography lens, Stanley Kubrick at “Look” Magazine brings more into focus the creative decisions made by the filmmaker as an adult.”
“Detailed and at times broad, it is fervently written and researched, and uncovers the sources of the ’Kubrickian worldview’ whose origins have seldom been studied, nor particularly established.”
