The Kubrick Test
4 Extra Debut. The story of a young actor鈥檚 encounter with legendary film maker Stanley Kubrick. Starring, as himself, Kerry Shale.
Kerry Shale鈥檚 drama tells the true story of his encounter with one of cinema鈥檚 most influential figures.
Stanley Kubrick is undoubtedly one of the greatest film makers of all time with a succession of masterpieces from A Clockwork Orange to 2001, Dr Strangelove to The Shining. He鈥檚 also known for an exhaustively detailed working process and utter lack of compromise.
For many years, the great director鈥檚 methods were shrouded in mystery. So when, in 1987, a young actor gets an invitation to enter Kubrick鈥檚 hidden world, he leaps at it.
And, of course, gets more than he bargained for.
Kerry Shale plays himself in this darkly comic reflection on the nuts and bolts of true genius.
