2001: An Inner Space Odyssey











2001, A Space Odyssey, 1968 - d. Stanley Kubrick (1928-1999)


'A film is - or should be - more like music than like fiction. It should be a progression of moods and feelings. The theme, what's behind the emotion, the meaning, all that comes later.'

Stanley Kubrick
