My favorite movie of all time.

Read a REAL LIFE account of what happened behind the scenes when the film was being made …

Kubrick became good buddies with the actor …

went out drinking with him and played pool …

but once the movie was finished he turned his back on him and refused to have anything more to do with him after that.

Can't remember where I read about this, but since I also recall reading about Kubrick's Boxes at about the same time (a documentary was also made about them), perhaps that could also be where a mention was made of the way that he DUMPS the STAR of his film after he was finished filming???

Found these links:

If he STOLE money from him maybe that explains the reason why he refused to see him anymore???

If that is true (about the money) then Kubrick is a real scumbag. I totally believe the bit about the eye injury and Kubrick only concerned about the next camera shot. That is Kubrick 101.

No time for the old in-out, love. I've just come to read the meter.
