The most handsome photography

Steven Allan Spielberg once said: "No one in history can make better works than Kubrick. As a screenwriter and director of Lolita, Doctor Strange 200 1 A Space Odyssey, clockwork orange and The Shining, Kubrick is one of the most influential filmmakers in the United States.

Stanley? Kubrick took a selfie (1946) (he was so handsome when he was young). He has a Leica IIIa or IIIb paraxial camera (the exact model depends on the ranging and framing window on the back). The same factory's 50mm F2.0 lens is standard.

Kubrick was a talented young photographer before he became a filmmaker. His father attaches great importance to cultivating his son's interest in this field. He studies at William College? Edward? Taft continued to explore his photography talent in the school photography club in high school. 1945, Kubrick, who was only 17 years old, captured a sad newsstand owner in new york. The old man's expression and the eye-catching headlines of "Roosevelt's death" and "Truman's inauguration" on the newspaper stand tell the story behind the photo. LOOK magazine paid $25 for this photo, which is not a small sum-at that time, the per capita disposable income in the United States was only $65,438 +0.088.

But his high school studies were tight, and after the war, the university had to take care of a large number of demobilized soldiers, so Kubrick went to Outlook magazine to find a job as a photographer. He is also the youngest photographer ever hired by Outlook magazine. He started at the age of 17. In the four years ahead, Kubrick worked as a still photographer and also shot many scenes in new york and Chicago. He is not picky about equipment. He often uses a dual-lens reflex camera and a direct-view camera (also known as a paraxial camera) to pose and capture. When shooting indoors and at night in poor light, he often uses Super-XX black-and-white film produced by Hysmans Company and Kodak Company. This 24-gauge (ISO200) film often needs to be developed, which may cause more blurred performance in Gao Fancha. Kubrick went deep into the meridians of new york and Chicago, haunting university campuses, subway stations, slums, stock exchanges, wrestling arenas, steel mills, bars, waiting rooms of dental clinics, nightclubs and other places to take special group photos. His composition and capture of Byakki Smoker's charm are very old-fashioned.

At the end of last year, the City Museum of New York selected 25 10000 negatives taken by Kubrick for Outlook magazine between 1946 and 1949, and provided intensive screening services for interested people. Phaidon, an old shop, also lost no time in launching related photo albums in September this year. Will it set off a small climax of Kubrick's early photography? Anyway, wait and see.

There is also this photo, which was rated as "the most eye-catching photo" by VandM-the photo of boxer Walter Cartier during the competition.

There are also light and dark changes in the image. " Photos create tension like any movie. Three years after taking this photo, Walter Cartier starred in Kubrick's first film, Day of Battle (195 1).
