Stanley Kubrick

Stanley Kubrick(1928-1999) was a producer, director, editor, writer and photographer.
He did an amazing job because he always was one of the most innovative and influential filmmakers.

He had been influential for his hobbies (photography, jazz music and chess).
His movies are controversial, original, provocative with a meticulous detail and perfectionist nature.Also in his movies we can see diferent elements of an ironic perrimism mixed with simbolism, surrealism and expressionism.

He did his movies on an artistic way and with extremely care in details, an example is Barry Lyndon, this movie was recorded only with candy light with an special camera. Kubrick always search that his movies were perfect.

Nowdays Kybrick still been an influence on contemporany cinematographic for all his filmic achievments, his filmic and artistic vision, his techniques, special effects, lights, cameras, music and all his narrative way to adapt a film. And he always tried to put his personal vision of humans (all his reflexions, interest and social, psychologic and metaphysic way of people).

Simply he was an amazing director that did 13 classic movies:

A clockwork orange

Barry Lyndon

Lolita

Spartacus

Dr. Strangelove

The shinning

Full metal jacket

2001: A Space Odyssey

Fear and Desire

Killer's kiss

The killing

Paths of glory

Eyes wide shut

Here is a summary video from his films.

Romeo

Romeo is great person, intelligent, lover, reader of poetry and unafraid of danger for those reasons is my favorite character from Romeo and Juliet.

Moreover  Romeo has a  deep capacity for love and he demostrate his feelings and emotions and even though that Juliet is his enemy's daughter he can't avoid to love her.

He lover Juliet until her "death" , and he suicide him in order to be with Juliet together.

Jack Nicholson was born in New York on  April 22, 1937, son of a showgirl. He grew up with his parents and his sister, actually he knows that his parents were his grandparents and his sister was his mother.

First Nicholson worked in Hollywood as an animation artist in Hanna-Barbera. And he made his film debut in The cry Baby killer in 1958 in a little role.

Jack Nicholson is one of my favorite actors because he become to be immortal in his movies. I like the manner when he acts, specially in his neurotic and psychotic  characters.

He took an unusual characters, i think that he likes to take a risk in every movie that he does.

And he's not only an actor, is producer and director too.

For sure without mentioning his 8 nominations for the best actor and another more. He is the most nominated actor.

Some favorite movies:

Easy rider

One flew over the cuckoo's nest

Chinatown

The shining

Batman 

Something's gotta give

And my favorite character:  Randle Patrick McMurphy (:
