In 1962, Stanley Kubrick move to Hertfordshire, England to film Lolita. Stanley Kubrick was born in the Bronx, New York in the 1920s, but after filming The Killing, Kubrick spent a couple of years in Germany to film Paths of Glory where he met his final wife and then he spent a few months in Spain to film Spartacus. After filming Spartacus, the next project after that was Lolita.
In 1969, Stanley Kubrick helped NASA film the moon landing. In since de-classified language, Richard Nixon referred to the moon landing with the code words, "The Bay Of Pigs". This is not secret information that I would be in danger for revealing; in fact on the contrary, all this information can be seen on a documentary on YouTube, just search 'Stanley Kubrick' and 'moon shot'. In order to make sure that Stanley Kubrick would not talk about this in the United States, Stanley Kubrick was on Richard Nixon's public enemies list of which Paul Newman too was also on.
Stanley Kubrick stayed in England for the rest of his life to avoid the United States Secret Service agents that he feared would go after him regarding his involvement with and knowledge of the moon landing.
All this leads to why Stanley Kubrick deliberately decided to make a movie about Vietnam in England, in what has to be the World's record for the farthest distance away from Vietnam that a Vietnam War movie was made.
The movie was stubbornly in Howard Hughes style filmed entirely in England. Palm trees, and buildings and sets had to be created on an English studio parking lot.
The effect, in the hands of the sheer bacchanalian Felliniesque master hands of Stanley Kubrick is statuesque in its sheer breathtaking brilliance. Characters and scenes seem to jump from the screen from the hellish brackish days of training in the barracks with the bellicose curmudgeon drill sergeant with his sadistic style of molding the soldiers into lethal killing machines.
Days and nights humping it through basic training. The sheer disciplines; the rigours, the running, the relays, the sidestepping, the rope climbs, the drills.
Graduation is an unforgettable event as the occasion cascades into a deadly conclusion which underscores the brutality and lethality of the bloody business that is War.
After basic training the soldiers descend into a fiery Danteian pit of Southeast Asian combat hell.
After landing in Khe Sanh, they are attacked during the Tet Offensive as it is supposed to have occured at this otherwise obscure and remote outpost and in this case the Americans held their own.
After this, they are given orders to rendevous to Hue, pronounced Hway.
The first casualty of war is the loss of innocence and this movie poignantly guides the viewer further into the psychological battleground of war as the soldiers painstakingly try to advance and cover ground against and unseen force lurking beyond.
This movie like all Stanley Kubrick movies is great and not to be missed. If you are a fan of Stanley Kubrick, why not get this video?
