BamaJeepsterStanley Kubrick shoots the NYC subway, 1946
I love looking at old photos. I know from previous threads that there are a few here who might like this series of photos Kubrick did as a 16 year old for 'Look' magazine.
Here's a sample:

smschulzI'm a big fan of his work.
I need to go find some of his earlier films that I haven't seen.
Thanks

oddballOne can see even at early age that Kubrick had that style and eye for imagery that would show up later in his film work. Wide, one-point perspective shots like the one above would become a major type of shot in his films.
Hard to believe that shortly after his stint as a Look photographer, he directed The Killing.

Climb14erVery, very few overweight, fat or obese people back then! Post depression, post war... no chemicals in food, no fast food, people walked and were lean. I remember back to when I was a kid in the early to mid fifties and while folks ate rich foods, very few looked like most of the people coming out of Costco or Sam's Club these days. Great photos especially for a sixteen year old.
