BOOK 103: KUBRICK: MICHAEL HERR


'An intimate portrait of the genius who transformed the art of filmmaking' Stanley Kubrick's career spanned Paths of Glory, Lolita. Dr Strangelove 2001. A Space Odyssey, A Clockwork Orange. Barry Lyncon. The Shining and Eyes Wide Shut. In this book, Michael Herr, best known for his brilliant and seminal books Dispatches and Walter Winchell, who worked with Kubrick on Full Metal Jacket and co-wrote the screenplay, pays due homage and tribute to his long-time friend, remembering the humour, the cleanly burning intelligence and the outrageous sanity of a twentieth century master.
