Hayden Orpheum Picture Palace in Sydney's north shore screens the complete filmography of Stanley Kubrick this Autumn.
All 13 of the filmmaker's features screen, starting a double feature of Fear and Desire and Killer's Kiss, ending with Eyes Wide Shut.
Screening in chronological order, this retrospective allows viewers the opportunity to consider how Kubrick's style of filmmaking progressed over forty-five years of filmmaking. Perhaps no other American director has ever realised a body of work so uncompromising in its artistic ambitions yet so grand in scale within the studio system.
Kubrick not only pushed cinematic technologies and conventions into uncharted territories, but he also changed the public perception of the Hollywood auteur.
"If it can be written, or thought, it can be filmed" - Stanley Kubrick
