About this episode

Stanley experiences a career low when his newest movie, 2001: A Space Odyssey, has mass walkouts during its premiere. But 2001 quickly builds an audience, and Stanley becomes a god among filmmakers. His next film is even riskier: a violent, perverse look at the future called A Clockwork Orange, which ignites a firestorm of rage from Stanley's British neighbors.

STANLEY traces Stanley Kubrick’s journey from a curious Bronx teenager, first inspired by a camera gifted to him by his father, to a visionary director who redefined the art of filmmaking. Across his career, Kubrick pushed boundaries, challenged censorship, and pursued an uncompromising level of creative control that shaped landmark films including Lolita, 2001: A Space Odyssey, The Shining, and Eyes Wide Shut. The Plot Thickens is the award-winning documentary podcast from Turner Classic Movies, focusing on the movies and the people who made them.
