2001: The Making of a Myth | Trailer | Available Now

Travel behind the scenes from Kubrick's cinema masterpiece 2001: A Space Odyssey.

Get it now on:

Stanley Kubrick did not live to see what the year 2001 would actually bring. But over three decades on from its conception, his visionary film epic 2001: A Space Odyssey remains a true classic of modern cinema. Both relevant and timeless, Kubrick's boundary-breaking work reminds us, as James Cameron puts it, that "as our films get ever more spectacular, it's the ideas behind the spectacle which are still the most important special effects of all". This compelling documentary offers us a rare and valuable insight into the production of a film hailed as "one of the great moments in the history of cinema."
