  I immersed myself in 2001: A Space Odyssey for a week, watching the film twice along with all the ‘making of’ footage and documentaries, researching concept art and posters online, and doing a bunch of sketching.

Beautiful poster by Martin Ansin for “Taming Light”, a group exhibition featuring painting, photography and illustration inspired by the films of Stanley Kubrick. I watched British documentarian Jon Ronson’s film Stanley Kubrick’s Boxes on my return flight from New York — it’s an obvious labour of love almost a decade in the making, and contains fascinating archival footage of the director at work.

After he finished making True Lies, Cameron called Kubrick, by then a recluse, and invited himself over. They spent a day, in the basement of Kubrick’s house in the English countryside, watching True Lies at Kubrick’s flatbed editing station. Cameron went over the shots … so that Kubrick could learn how the effects were done.

“Moloko Vellocet” (2007) by Miami artist Terribly Odd, takes inspiration from Kubrick’s A Clockwork Orange. His “Poe Folks” exhibition from last Halloween — inspired by the works of Edgar Allan Poe — is worth a look too. (via OMG  Posters)

But while the dream of the big score may be what attracts the audience’s attention, the classic heist movies all show — sometimes in excruciating detail — that the acquisition of easy money can be mighty hard work.
