Presented is a collection of memorabilia from famed Hollywood director Stanley Kubrick. Kubrick (1928-1999) grew up in New York City and became interested in visual images at an early age. He became a freelance photographer and later worked as a photographer for Look magazine. He produced a number of low-budget films and eventually became a Hollywood filmmaker. His first major film was The Killers (1956). Kubrick's big break came when he directed Spartacus, a film that had a gigantic budget and a cast, including extras, of 10,000. The film, starring Kirk Douglas, was nominated for six Oscars and won four, and became a tremendous success, and put Kubrick into the big time. Kubrick became one of America's most famous filmmakers. He directed Lolita (1962), Dr. Strangelove (1964), and 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968), for which he won an Oscar for Best Visual Effects. He made the controversial A Clockwork Orange in 1971.
