| Sommario/riassunto: | Although Stanley Kubrick adapted novels and short stories, his films deviate in notable ways from the source material. In particular, since '2001: A Space Odyssey' (1968), they seem to exploit definitively all cinematic techniques, embodying a compelling visual and aural experience. But, as the author of this book contends, it is for these reasons that Kubrick's cinema becomes the supreme embodiment of the sublime, fruitful encounter between the two arts and, simultaneously, of their independence. Pezzotta concludes that, unlike his predecessors, he creates a cinema not only centred on the ontology of the medium, but on the staging of sublime, new experiences. |
