Stanley Kubrick was an American film director and screenwriter. He is frequently cited as one of the greatest filmmakers in cinematic history. His films, almost all of which are adaptations of novels or short stories, cover a wide range of genres and are noted for their realism, dark humor, unique cinematography, extensive set designs, and evocative use of music.
His filmography includes such classics as A Clockwork Orange (1971), Barry Lyndon (1975), The Shining (1980), Full Metal Jacket (1987) and his last film, Eyes Wide Shut.

1. The most challenging part about directing a film is getting out of the car.

2. Let the film speak for itself.

3. Your film should touch areas that people don’t want touched sometimes.

4. When choosing what story to tell, there’s a lot of factors to consider but in the end, similarly to falling in love, your decision comes down to an abstract feeling you can’t explain.

5. Genius is 90% hard work.

6. In-depth problem solving is similar to problem solving of anything. Create a generalized approach to solving tough problems when writing and directing.

7. Try and understand the potential of what movies could be and believe that cinema has no boundaries.

8. Make a film with the resources available to you, then learn from your own mistakes and correct them in your next one.

9. Direct the eye and the heart.

10. Ask yourself all the tough questions about your film before writing and making it.
