Just watched this movie. I wanted to check who played Stanley Kubrick and was disheartened to see this movie having such below average rating. So here's my two cents.
The movie is really good and if you are looking for a success story or how it all turns out well in the end then this will be disappointment. But if you wanna understand the dynamic of master and a pupil. The The pursuit of happiness despite the cost of success. The purity of work in cinematic arts. This is what the movie excels at. The struggles and hardships are very relatable if you are an artist yourself. This has very less melodrama but has stark realism attached to it.
The directing falls short at some point nothing too bad. The acting and the cinematography is what goes for this. The musical score is wonderful and they always emanate from a source, very diagetic.
This movie has a lot going for it. It achieves it's objective. The Love of art in the purest form is what matters, that is the joy in creating it.
