Reconsidering Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey in a post-millennial context, this informative study examines the making of the landmark film with a focus on its artistic and mythic pedigree. Kubrick and writer Arthur C. Clarke faced a number of challenges in producing and intelligent an innovative A-list movie in what-almost a decade before Star Wars-was considered a second-class genre, science fiction. The author explores the film's enigmatic storyline, offering a fresh perspective on production design, special effects and the use of music.
