Notebook
People imagined that he could do whatever he liked, but he knew more disappointments than others cared to count. He had nursed many projects which never, as they say, had legs.

His intention had been to build the most important ones on the lot in England, but some other movies about Napoleon brought about his Waterloo.Frederic Raphael, Eyes Wide Open: A Memoir of Stanley Kubrick and "Eyes Wide Shut".
