When physicist and renowned author Jeremy Bernstein (born December 31, 1929) penned a terrific piece on 37-year-old burgeoning director Stanley Kubrick for The New Yorker, the story gained so much attention that Bernstein was commissioned to write an even more elaborate profile of the legendary filmmaker.  Normally Kubrick would have flat-out refused, however, he agreed due to the fact that he shared a common passion with Bernstein — chess.  When Bernstein travelled to Oxford, England for the conversation on November 27, 1965 it was also captured on tape.  The interview remains to this day one of the most profound conversations with Kubrick ever recorded, and you can listen to it in full below.  For all FEELguide stories related to Stanley Kubrick be sure to visit Stanley Kubrick on FEELguide.
