The Kaleidoscope of the young Kubrick

It is impossible to understand the birth and evolution of the cinema of a great director-author like Kubrick without an overview of the workings of the Hollywood industry and the American Studio-System. After this ‘contextualisation’, we move on to an analysis of the young Kubrick's post-war activity as a photojournalist, a passage that marks him out for his research into the possibilities of the medium and his confrontation with reality, but above all for the expressive form of ambiguity, as a questioning of the principles of classical Hollywood cinema. It was following this track that he began his career as a director, first with a few short films and then with his debut film, Fear and Desire (1953).
