LONDON (AP) Stanley Kubrick, director of `2001: A Space Odyssey' and `A Clockwork Orange,' died Sunday at his house in England, his family said. He was 70.

Kubrick's films included `Spartacus' in 1960, `Lolita' in 1962, `Dr. Strangelove' in 1964, `2001' in 1968 and `A Clockwork Orange' in 1971.

He also made `Barry Lyndon,' released in 1975, `The Shining' in 1978 and `Full Metal Jacket' in 1987.

His latest film, `Eyes Wide Shut,' was slated for release in July. Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman star in the film about jealousy and obsession, which Kubrick made in great secrecy

I'm sure most of you have heard by now, but...

I read in another newspaper that he was 71.
Damn.. I really liked A Clockwork Orange, The Shining and Full Metal Jacket... I like all of his movies!

i only ever seen a clockwork orange, shining, full metal jacket, and 2001. i know he did barry lydon or something, did anyone see that?

anywho, i'm stoked to see eyes wide shut, i guess it's like a nc-17 porno type deal. jennifer jason leigh is supposed to be in it too i believe.

I still never got around to seeing Dr. Strangelove. Clockwork Orange, The Shining, and Full Metal Jacket were excellent, though. I couldn't get into 2001...

Interesting tidbit about Eyes Wide Shut:

Apologies to God Among Lice. :)

Eyes Wide shut from what I heard is about tom and nicole basically getting it on in several famous castles and other places across Europe.

kubrick and someone else were watching a porno and that's where he got the idea for it. so i'm guessing that's why it got the nc17 rating.
