Kubrick won an Oscar for the film’s revolutionary special effects and received additional bids for writing and directing. ![]() Kubrick earned seven additional Oscar nominations throughout his career: three each for writing, directing and producing “A Clockwork Orange” (1971) and “Barry Lyndon” (1975) and one for penning “Full Metal Jacket” (1987). Both “A Clockwork Orange” and “Barry Lyndon” brought him Golden Globe bids for Best Director, while “Lyndon” won the BAFTA in that category. Surprisingly, he competed at the Razzies for “The Shining” (1980), the horror film that featured Jack Nicholson at his manic best.Īs the years passed, Kubrick became increasingly reclusive, setting up shop in London and (slowly) completing his films there. He managed to command big talents for his projects, enlisting Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman to shoot for over a year on “Eyes Wide Shut” (1999), which was finished shortly before his death. ![]() ![]() Tour our photo gallery of Kubrick’s films, and see if your favorite title topped the list.
