🔒 Don’t let a small budget hold you back, advises Jan Harlan, producer of many Kubrick masterpieces.

‘The greatest films — or any great work of art — will remain as an important witness for the time in which it was created and is as important for the living as it is for the yet to be born,” Jan Harlan told theHarlan worked alongside American film director, screenwriter and producer Stanley Kubrick as an executive producer. In conversation with the organisers of the Dublin International Film Festival, he elaborated on how the work of his old friend and colleague was done with that ethic in mind.

“The essence of all Kubrick films is looking at human frailty, at human vanity, at the fact that we fancy ourselves to be governed by our intellect and knowledge, education and ability to think analytically — which is all very, very, very good. But when it really matters, we are governed by our emotions … that interested Stanley, because nothing has changed.
