Stanley Kubrick Was Completely Wrong About His Best Movie

Stanley Kubrick felt his last movie would turn out to be his best, but this wasn’t ultimately the case. For a filmmaker who had such an impact on the medium, Kubrick didn’t make that many movies. Later in his career, he also became famous for the lengthy gaps between projects. For instance, it took 12 years for him to follow up Full Metal Jacket with Eyes Wide Shut. Of course, Stanley Kubrick’s movie CV is a case of quality over quantity, with many of his films being considered the best of their respective genres.
