I'm not sure if it will spur Eyes Wide Shut haters to reevaluate the film, but Eyes Wide Shut: Stanley Kubrick and the Making of his Final Film will give them some fresh insight into the seemingly impenetrable mind of Stanley Kubrick., Though Stanley Kubrick and his body of work have been well documented, this book adds considerably to our knowledge of both the man and his masterpieces. Kubrick left the world his remarkable, enduring films, and this volume pays homage to his considerable legacy. A welcome new biography of a cinematic genius., Drawing on access to the Kubrick archive, Kolker and Abrams have unearthed some superb new facts about the director., The filmmaker emerges from this biography as a contradictory and enigmatic man. Fanlike in their deep respect for his work, the authors describe his perfectionism in relentless detail. The biography celebrates its subject as a man who lived his life 'in the service of making great art,' whose films are 'cinematic masterpieces., As recounted in a new book by Robert Kolker and Nathan Abrams--an essential resource for anyone interested in the film's development and production-- Eyes Wide Shut was a project that Kubrick had been seriously contemplating for decades., Through obsessive research and details within details worthy of the man they chronicle in Eyes Wide Shut: Stanley Kubrick and the Making of his Final Film , film scholars Robert P. Kolker and Nathan Abrams prove decidedly that the last movie of a great film director not only sums up their career but defines and illuminates it with clarity. This is a must-read for admirers of Stanley Kubrick and his work and the cinema itself., Loved it. I thought I knew everything about Eyes Wide Shut but discovered much more. I think it's the most significant book on a single film since Stephen Bach's Final Cut ., In this wide-ranging new biography from Robert P. Kolker and Nathan Abrams, Kubrick's life and work are explored through private documents and interviews with his friends and family to help tell the largely unknown story of a man whose work helped define our culture., "The book is an immaculately researched account of the film's creation."? Christopher Schobert, The Film Stage, "Two leading Kubrick scholars have joined forces for this hugely impressive study of the filmmaker's final masterpiece. Examining the film from every conceivable angle, they offer unique insights into its form and themes--and also, more broadly, into Kubrick's working methods, his personality and his place in twentieth century culture."--Peter Krämer, author of BFI Film Classics on Dr. Strangelove and 2001: A Space Odyssey, and co-editor of Stanley Kubrick: New Perspectives, Two leading Kubrick scholars have joined forces for this hugely impressive study of the filmmaker's final masterpiece. Examining the film from every conceivable angle, they offer unique insights into its form and themes--and also, more broadly, into Kubrick's working methods, his personality and his place in twentieth century culture., The spine of Kubrick: An Odyssey is his journey from oddball independent, funded by a pharmacist uncle, to oddball studio maverick with 'complete total final annihilating artistic control' (his words). Stanley lives on, his dreamlike hold unbroken., Kolker and Abrams have broken new ground and achieved what many of us thought was impossible. That of supplying us with absolutely everything one could ever want to know about Stanley Kubrick., An authoritative portrait of the director. Filled with striking behind-the-scenes stories and elevated by a keen understanding of Kubrick's style, this is a biography as monumental as its subject., This thorough, detailed and fascinating biography should be commended for looking into areas of Kubrick's personal and professional life that have never previously been discussed, as well as offering lucid critical commentary on his films, their themes and his reputation. Myths are debunked, and everyone from the Kubrick obsessive to the casual fan will be beguiled., With Eyes Wide Shut: Stanley Kubrick and the Making of his Final Film , we finally have the great book this film deserves. Every chapter in this book is valuable to the Kubrick scholar or the casual cinephile; thoughtful yet readable throughout, it hits that golden spot of being a scholarly page-turner., An in-depth biography about filmmaker Stanley Kubrick. In a conversational yet authoritative tone, the book delivers a vast amount of detail about every aspect of Kubrick's career, from his formative days as a Look magazine photographer, his early cinematic missteps, and his documentary shorts, to the years he devoted to unrealized projects. An admiring look at a fascinating figure. Likely to be the definitive word on Kubrick for years to come., [ Kubrick: An Odyssey ] aims to evaluate Kubrick in the round, weighing achievements against methods, and clearing away some of the apocryphal dead wood., Kubrick challenged everything, but I loved that about him...in his mind, a film came down to how it was filmed, the cinematic look of the film, and it's what separated him from other directors and film makers.

Synopsis
The definitive biography of the creator of 2001: A Space Odyssey , The Shining , and A Clockwork Orange , presenting the most in-depth portrait yet of the groundbreaking film-maker. The enigmatic and elusive filmmaker Stanley Kubrick has not been treated to a full-length biography in over twenty years. Stanley Kubrick: An Odyssey fills that gap. This definitive book is based on access to the latest research, especially Kubrick's archive at the University of the Arts, London, as well as other private papers plus new interviews with family members and those who worked with him. It offers comprehensive and in-depth coverage of Kubrick's personal, private, public, and working life. Stanley Kubrick: An Odyssey investigates not only the making of Kubrick's films, but also about those he wanted (but failed) to make like Burning Secret , Napoleon , Aryan Papers , and A.I. Revealingly, this immersive biography will puncture the controversial myths about the reclusive filmmaker who created some of the most important works of art of the twentieth century

The box part of the box set looks like it may have come apart and was taped up on one of the upper corners. Not a big deal to me and the box still fits all the books securely, but the taping was not mentioned in the description.
