Content:
An exploration of Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey that combines 'new' empirical approaches with 'old' formalist approaches. This provides a broader understanding of how Kubrick's methods as a director and auteur were developed to produce a unique aesthetic creation that is still years ahead in its design, vision and philosophical structure
