Opération Lune

Oct 16, 2002
Opération Lune est un canular sous forme de documentaire réalisé par William Karel en 2002.Un documentaire d'intrigue, subtil mélange de faits réels, de fiction et d'hypothèses autour d'un événement qui marqua le XXe siècle : la course à la Lune. Richard Nixon était-il prêt à tout pour assurer la suprématie des États-Unis dans la conquête de l'espace ? Y a-t-il vraiment eu des « retransmissions en direct » de la Lune ? Quels liens Stanley Kubrick entretenait-il avec la Nasa ? Construit autour de réelles interviews d'Henry Kissinger, Donald Rumsfeld ou Buzz Aldrin, ce film jette le trouble et nous rappelle le pouvoir des images et leur possible manipulation.

Stanley Kubrick's Boxes
7
A few years after his death, the widow of Stanley Kubrick (1928-1999) asks Jon Ronson to look through the contents of about 1,000 boxes of meticulously sorted materials Kubrick left. Ronson finds that most contain materials reflecting work Kubrick did after the release of "Barry Lyndon" in 1975, when Kubrick's film output slowed down. Ronson finds audition tapes for "Full Metal Jacket," photographs to find the right hat for "Clockwork Orange" or the right doorway for "Eyes Wide Shut" -- thousands of details that went into Kubrick's meticulous approach. Ronson believes that the boxes show "the rhythm of genius." Interviews with family, staff, and friends are included.

Lost Kubrick: The Unfinished Films of Stanley Kubrick
6.9
He is considered by many the greatest film director the medium has ever known. Yet in a 45-year career, Stanley Kubrick's films number only a dozen. That he strove for perfection is well established. What is less known is that he lavished years of energy on several films that never saw the flickering light of the silver screen. Through interviews and abundant archival materials, this documentary examines these "lost" films in depth to discover what drew Kubrick to these projects, the work he did to prepare them for production, and why they ultimately were abandoned.

Il était une fois… Orange Mécanique
7
Stanley Kubrick tourne Orange mécanique en 1971. Sur fond de délinquance juvénile, le film dénonce les techniques de conditionnement mental utilisées pour redresser les déviances. Censé se dérouler dans un futur proche, il est très ancré dans la fin des années soixante, marquée par la contestation anti-autoritaire des institutions et la montée de l'insécurité urbaine. Orange mécanique reste l'œuvre choc d'un visionnaire.

Harlan - Im Schatten von Jud Süss

His most perfidious film was the treacherous anti-Semitic propaganda film Jud Süß - required viewing for all SS members. This documentary is an eye-opening examination of World War II film history as well as the story of a German family from the Third Reich to the present; one that is marked by reckoning, denial and liberation.

Full Metal Jacket: Between Good and Evil
7.5
Follow Stanley Kubrick as he creates his savage and brilliant Vietnam film, hewing closely to the theme that dominated his creative life for four decades - the duality of human nature. Poised between good and evil, mankind was, in Kubrick's view, a complex creature equally capable of unspeakable savagery and heart-melting tenderness. Full Metal Jacket would make his case in vivid, blood-soaked Technicolor. Through interviews with Kubrick's collaborators and cast members, including Vincent D'Onofrio, Lee Ermey and Adam Baldwin, this documentary reveals how Kubrick's brilliant visual sense, astute knowledge of human nature, and unique perspective on the duality of man came together to make Full Metal Jacket an unforgettable cinematic experience, taking its place in his "war trilogy" alongside cinematic landmarks Fear and Desire and Paths of Glory.
