Stanley Kubrick Exhibition: Filmmaker Artifacts Make Stop in Toronto



Stanley Kubrick, the popular exhibition that celebrates the creative process of one of cinema's most enigmatic and essential artists, makes its Canadian premiere at TIFF Bell Lightbox from October 31, 2014 -- January 25, 2015.



Re-designed for Toronto audiences (and featuring an exclusive 15-minute collection of Kubrick clips, curated by TIFF Director of Programmes Jesse Wente), it draws on extensive archives from Kubrick's home and workplace and features rare photographs and letters, original props and costumes, screenplays, production materials, and cameras from his almost 50-year career. Stanley Kubrick is TIFF's largest exhibition to date, with almost 1,000 artifacts.



Jan Harlan, Kubrick's long-time producer and brother-in-law, and Christiane Kubrick, Kubrick's widow after 47 years of marriage, were on-hand to kick off the exhibition.



Highlights include the 'Starchild' from "2001: A Space Odyssey," the dresses of the ghostly sisters from "The Shining," the 'Born to Kill' helmet of Private Joker from "Full Metal Jacket," the authentic model of the 'War Room' in "Dr. Strangelove"; and the Moonwatcher costume, worn by Dan Richter in "2001: A Space Odyssey," among many others.
