Stanley Kubrick was a great artist. I say this all the time and people think I`m being facetious. I`m not. Kubrick was a guy who obsessed over details and did 100 takes, and you know, I don`t feel that way. If I`m shooting a film and it`s 6 o`clock at nig...

Kubrick was a good model. He had an autonomy I`ve never had but that one desire. He organized things a certain way. And he had a good relationship with Warner Brothers. He was their class act.

[about Eyes Wide Shut (1999)] We knew from the beginning the level of commitment needed. We felt honored to work with Stanley Kubrick. We were going to do what it took to do this picture, whatever time, because I felt - and Nic [Nicole Kidman] did, too - ...
Tom Cruise
[on director Stanley Kubrick] By the time of "Dr. Strangelove" he had become very human -- maybe it was the power that came with successes like "Lolita" -- for he is now very strong. My first day was torture. I was nervous, scared, did 48 takes. I expecte...

Stanley Kubrick taught me to believe in myself artistically. I spent my 20s raising my children, and wanting to, and being married. That was my driving force. And then he said to me, "No, you have to respect your talent, and give it some space, and give i...

Probably my four favorite directors are Werner Herzog, Rainer Werner Fassbinder, Stanley Kubrick and Luis Buñuel, because with all of their work you can think beyond the edges of the film. They`re not films that dictate to you, this is what you must think...
Crispin Glover
I have always been a huge fan of Ridley Scott and certainly when I was a kid. Alien, Blade Runner just blew me away because they created these extraordinary worlds that were just completely immersive. I was also an enormous Stanley Kubrick fan for similar...
Christopher Nolan
That movie was all right to make, but you know Stanley likes to do a lot of takes. It gets kind of boring, but when you take a job you do it. (on working with director Stanley Kubrick on "The Shining")
Scatman Crothers
It`s often the case with directors that they don`t like to share credit, which is the case of Stanley. He would prefer just A Film By Stanley Kubrick including music and everything.
Terry Southern
I`d worked in Clockwork Orange with Stanley Kubrick and since Stanley was such a prestigious director this opened all sorts of doors for me - one of them being Star Wars.
David Prowse
I mean, there are certain Spielberg movies I really like, but clearly they`re very different directors and I much prefer Kubrick to Spielberg.
