“I very deliberately tried to avoid the irresistible temptation - TopicsExpress



          

“I very deliberately tried to avoid the irresistible temptation of a lot of satire to level with the audience at some point and tell them what you really think. You’re always afraid that if you keep saying the opposite of truth they may not get the point. … If you really want to communicate something, even if it’s just an emotion or an attitude, let alone an idea, the least effective and least enjoyable way is directly. It only goes in about half an inch. But if you can get people to the point where they have to think a moment what it is you’re getting at, and then discover it … the thrill of discovery goes right through the heart.” -Stanley Kubrick talking to Joseph Heller.
