A magazine photographer at 17, Kubrick made absolute control into a style: each film a closed world and a genre reinvented — science fiction in 2001, horror in The Shining, war in Full Metal Jacket.
A legendary perfectionist, he moved to England and worked independently of the studios, with a freedom rare in Hollywood.
