Stanley Kubrick Letter Threatens MGM Studio Head!

It has been more than four decades since Stanley Kubrick blew minds with “2001: A Space Odyssey,” and even to this day, nearly every frame of the 142-minute movie continues to obsess fans. So when this letter started making the rounds online everyone just believed it because of Stanley’s reputation.

Is Stanley Kubrick the biggest bad ass director to ever live? I like to think so and when this letter popped up I feel in love a bit more.

The letter is dated 1970, and by time “2010” dropped in 1984, Kubrick had relaxed a bit, and given the film project his sort of half-blessing and even appeared in a cameo (as an illustration on a Time magazine cover). True or not, the letter is pretty AWESOME. Check it all out below!

It most definitely is not true. Total internet fake story.

give me a stage where this bull here can rage and though I can fight I'd much rather recite.
