A video Analysis of Stanley Kubrick's '2001: A Space Odyssey'
In this video, I will analyze key scenes and concepts from director Stanley Kubrick's 1963 science fiction film '2001: A Space Odyssey.
Star Child
2001: A Space Odyssey gives us an abstract picture and asks us to interpret it any way that we see fit. This is what makes this film great because it is not attempting to answer anything at all; it, instead, forces us to ask questions, about ourselves personally and about where we are heading as a species. The film can be a metaphor for the individual as well as a cosmic metaphor. The direction of an individual in his own life or that of a species completely transformed by a single event. Thanks for watching this video and please feel free to leave a comment.
