… what do you get in the book that isn’t already available via documentaries and the web?
First of all, it’s all in one place. Secondly, I think all the pictures on the web are probably from this book (or from the same pictures of the Time-Life online picture-set a couple of years ago). Third, the book’s pictures have been cleaned-up to magazine quality. With access to the Kubrick estate, they were able to do it right (a reason I favor using the Taschen book as color-key for 2001 – which, BTW, matches the laserdisc captures when brightness/contrast is normalized).

. . be sure to check out eBay for the 5x7" Senitype 2001: A Space Odyssey Deluxe Collection Set placard. (Yes, there’s lots of them for sale.) The best prices I’ve seen are in the $4-5 range. Perfect for framing if you figure out adding an LED light-box in the back to illuminate the cell. Cool. |
