Documentary Film: Anatomy of a Film (2012) Directed by David Spodak Unrated

Stanley Kubrick is arguably the greatest film director of all time. But what made him so good? Anatomy of a Film attacks the question, taking his early triumph, the controversial World War I drama Paths of Glory, and dissecting it scene by scene—quite literally. The entire film is shown from beginning to end as the filmmakers present a master class on Kubrick's technique with additional commentary from Kirk Douglas, producer Jim Harris and actor Richard Anderson. This unforgettable evening, presented by the filmmakers, is cheaper than film school by at least a hundred thousand dollars.
