From the moment Stanley Kubrick released his first short film in 1951 he didn’t look back, forging a career in cinema like no other and maintains his legacy as one of the most influential filmmakers in cinematic history.
After releasing a series of shorts on a shoestring budget, United Artists Film Studios gave Kubrick his first major Hollywood opportunity by funding his 1956 film noir project The Killing.
