Space Odyssey 2001. How Stanley Kubrick and Arthur Clark created a cult film

Back in 1968, the film "Space Odyssey of 2001", shot by the young and unknown director Stanley Kubrick, was quite cooled by critics. They converged on the fact that the film lacks a strong main character, around whom the narrative would go, and dialogues, and the most authoritative critics completely considered it incomprehensible and uninteresting. Despite this, the audience lined up in line in front of the cinemas, and a few years later the film earned the status of the classics of the genre, which was subsequently equal to directors such as Stephen Spielberg, George Lucas, Ridley Scott and James Cameron.
This book is a tribute to the film Which today is considered the best science fiction film in the history of Hollywood according to the American Institute of Cinema, and its creators, director Stanley Kubrick and writer Arthur Clark. The author managed to talk with everything involved in the film and tell a new, unknown story of the film - how the creators came to the head of the film adaptation, what difficulties they encountered, how they created special effects and what they hoped for. A great gift to all fans of the film!
