Stanley Kubrick was determined to make a movie about Napoleon Bonaparte. But what would this unrealized feature have looked like?
Stanley Kubrick’s career was built on big ambitious bets. Not all of them paid off at the box office, but far more importantly, they all tended to find an audience to one degree or another over the years. Of course, given just how audacious his works tended to be, there was no way all of Kubrick’s concepts for major motion pictures could be realized within his lifetime. Some projects would inevitably prove so daunting and ambitious that they’d have to go unrealized.
The Earliest Days of Stanley Kubrick’s 'Napoleon' Stanley Kubrick loved Napoleon. Like, really loved. If Stan Twitter had existed back in the 1960s, you can bet your bottom dollar that Kubrick would've been on there stumping for Napoleon, defending him against anyone who dared to criticize his genius, and retweeting every photo possible of this guy.
What Would Stanley Kubrick's Napoleon Movie Have Looked Like? Stanley Kubrick’s Napoleon would’ve been inevitably massive. Just the sheer scope of Kubrick’s other epics paints a clear picture of just how gargantuan this movie could’ve been, ditto many aspects of Napoleon’s pre-production . Still, part of what's exciting to think about regarding Napoleon is all the uncertainty surrounding what exactly it could've looked and sounded like.
