This volume features a set of thought-provoking and long overdue approaches to situating Stanley Kubrick s films in contemporary debates around gender, race, and age with a focus on women s representations. Offering new historical and critical perspectives on Kubrick s cinema, the book asks how his work should be viewed bearing in mind issues of gender equality, sexual harassment, and abuse. The authors tackle issues such as Kubrick s at times questionable relationships with his actresses and former wives; the dynamics of power, misogyny, and miscegenation in his films; and auteur "e;apologism,"e; among others. The selections delineate these complex contours of Kubrick s work by drawing on archival sources, engaging in close readings of specific films, and exploring Kubrick through unorthodox venture points. With an interdisciplinary scope and social justice-centered focus, this book offers new perspectives on a well-established area of study. It will appeal to scholars and upper-level students of film studies, media studies, gender studies, and visual culture, as well as to fans of the director interested in revisiting his work from a new perspective.
