Apparently there has been a misunderstanding regarding my comments on the visitors guestbook (3/24/97) What I meant to write was: I have just finished READING the latest biography of Kubrick by Vincent Lobrutto. To all those Kubrick fans who have emailed me during the past month: My apologies, but I am not writing a biography of Stanley Kubrick. However, I stand by my comments. Very few visitors on this site are female, which I think is an interesting fact in and of itself. Furthermore, I do not separate a man's professional and personal behavior. Anyway, I would not be visiting the Kubrick multimedia film guide if I weren't a Kubrick fan. I believe in critical discussion not hero worship. -- 05/13/97
Note from the Webmaster:
I believe that Ms. Turner's comment that "very few" vistors to this site are female is a rash generalization and just not true. Over 100,000 visitors have traversed these pages and only a small percentage of them actually sign this guestbook.
Ms. Turner's opinions are valid but Kubrick's personal life are not the object of this site however his body of work is. To generalize and assume that since Kubrick is accused in an unauthorized biography of treating his former wife poorly translates into all Kubrick researchers to be male is clearly illogical and insulting. Also, in reference to the 3/24 comments, a director's vision is captured by the various crew, not the other way around.
