Though Kubrick‘s career in film spanned nearly 50 years, he directed just thirteen features, a mere five of which were made over his final three decades. Trying to find a unifying theme to the Kubrick canon is no easy task […]. It’s impossible to thematically link Kubrick’s works, for each of his projects treads different ground. Even seemingly recurring elements break down under scrutiny; while five of his films centered on war, broad satire, graphic intensity, 18th century and ancient Rome period settings ensure that none would ever be confused for the other. But the films hold several things in common when only public response is considered: controversial upon release, able to spark discussion, open to wide interpretation, covered extensively in film study, and still highly praised many years later.
