McQuiston engages with Kubrick's work on multiple levels, including those of technical production, artistic conviction, and aesthetic experience, honoring each film as an intricate piece of art and resisting mundane deconstruction...McQuiston accomplishes deeply exploratory insights into one of cinema's most complex and stunning bodies of work, forges new and important pathways in connecting musical design technically and artistically in cinema, and develops a useful syntax for discussing the potent interaction of the two. --Caitlin Zera, Take Two , Film Matters Her model for thorough breakdowns of scene and soundscape can very easily be viewed as a precedent by which the musical design of any film is just as ripe for such intensive discourse. While the world might always be in shortage of auteurs as effectively meticulous as Kubrick, it should never mean that musical direction, be it a famous song or utter silence, should be left without just as much examination and analysis as the filmed image. --Matt Herzog, Take Two , Film Matters For years people have been discussing these films' ever-fascinating layers of narrative and imagery. Now McQuiston, fresh from time spent at the recently-opened Kubrick archives in London, joins the conversation with brilliant commentary on the films' sound and music. Kubrick fans will love this book. - James Wierzbicki, author of IFilm Music: A History R No director was more attentive to music than Stanley Kubrick. And now, here is a thoroughly researched, gracefully written book that does justice to what Kubrick achieved with his music. McQuiston has made an essential contribution to the literature on music and cinema. -- Krin Gabbard, author of Hotter Than That: The Trumpet, Jazz, and American Culture This book tackles the musical aesthetic and practice of one of the most influential filmmakers in the post-classical period. The level of archival detail it engages in is impressive and stands to revise not just our understanding of Kubrick's films but the definition of auteurism and soundtrack compilation practice since the 1960s. - Julie Hubbert, Associate Professor of Music, University of South Carolina We'll Meet Again is aimed at the serious admirer of Kubrick's films but delivered in a style that will be accessible to the undergraduate. --Journal of the Society for American Music For years people have been discussing these films' ever-fascinating layers of narrative and imagery.
