Product Description

Product Description

This provocative and insightful film is the first in a series of documentaries that will reveal the secret knowledge embedded in the work of the greatest filmmaker of all time: Stanley Kubrick. This famed movie director who made films such as 2001: A Space Odyssey, A Clockwork Orange, The Shining and Eyes Wide Shut, placed symbols and hidden anecdotes into his films that tell a far different story than the films appeared to be saying. In Kubrick's Odyssey, Part I, Kubrick and Apollo, author and filmmaker, Jay Weidner presents compelling evidence of how Stanley Kubrick directed the Apollo moon landings. He reveals that the film, 2001: A Space Odyssey was not only a retelling of Arthur C. Clarke and Stanley Kubrick's novel, but also a research and development project that assisted Kubrick in the creation of the Apollo moon footage. In light of this revelation, Weidner also explores Kubrick's film, The Shining and shows that this film is, in actuality, the story of Kubrick's personal travails as he secretly worked on the Apollo footage for NASA.

Review

Everyone at Discovery Space loves a good space conspiracy theory ... Weidner grasps onto various bits of imagery in the film and deviations from Stephen King's novel as Kubrick revealing his secrets to the unsuspecting audience ... The whole theory is strangely fascinating. --Discovery News

Weidner produces devastating proof that the landing was shot in a studio on Earth --David Icke

a thought-provoking experience --Examiner.com

5.0 out of 5 stars Makes The Shining even scarier (and more interesting)
Reviewed in the United States on November 11, 2023

The Kubrick Site has a lot of articles about the symbolism in Kubrick’s movies. Some of what I now see in them come from reading those articles, and some from just me noticing.

The Shining is even deeper than I thought. Way deeper. While I still believe we definitely went to the Moon, seeing this video and subsequent viewings of The Shining will still make me (and you) pause for a few seconds to consider some alternatives about what happened. And I’m definitely not a paranoid, 9/11 truther, nor did I ever believe we didn’t go to the Moon.

Jay will never disappoint you with his investigative talents, I learned this when reading The Cross at Hendaye some years ago. What did disappoint me in this DVD was the time it took to cover what he did in this Part 1 edition on Kubrick, I thought I was going to fall asleep with the repetition on the staging and screen effects done with the astronauts. I certainly hope he can wrap this thing up in one more DVD and not the projected 4-5 DVDs. Make no mistake Kubrick was trying to tell us something and Jay has been there to take it all apart and show us what Kubrick meant. Come on Jay, wrap it up in one more video!

2.0 out of 5 stars Muddled Sound, No Scene Selection, No Subtitles, & Different From the Online Version
Reviewed in the United States on October 8, 2017

This DVD version is missing things from the online version you can get for free. The one thing I especially notice that's absent is the part where the furniture in Room 237 was meant to suggest the moon rocks on the Apollo set by way of having grey canvases covering them -- that for me was very important, but they either took it out of this DVD or else this DVD was made before they put it in. Either way, I consider it and things like that, to be essential.

Also, this DVD has no chaptering, which for me is a big no-no, and no subtitles, which is an even bigger no-no -- particularly considering that Jay Weidner's voice is by nature so mellow and soothing that it tends to all too easily degrade into an indiscernible mumbling like the never-seen adults in any given Charlie Brown TV Christmas special.

But while we're on this topic, Weidner really does need to go back and re-edit the audio on this and put some more clarity into his voice by raising the treble and the base but leaving the midrange alone.

Don't get me wrong -- I love this documentary. But loving it on the internet and then buying a copy to own are two different things. When I buy a DVD I expect certain things and this DVD version of this documentary fails to deliver

5.0 out of 5 stars Another eye-opener. Will keep your eyes 'wide open' for sure!

With this first great effort, Mr. Weidner succeeded in making us aware of deep, dark forces at work in our world. If you love to be "scared out of your wits", you'll enjoy this fine documentary, which will haunt you forever, and ever, and ever. I could not keep my eyes off of it; reality is, in this case, always scarier than fiction, even the best fiction from the best fiction maker of all times, the master himself, Stanley Kubrick. A must-see for all SK fans. Then get his second instalment, and be ready for the "ultimate trip"!

I'm kicking myself for not doing my homework and buying this DVD without knowing what I was getting. I assumed it was going to be a thoughtful video essay on general hidden symbolism etc. in Kubrick's films. What I got instead are the ravings of a typical conspiracy theorist whackjob.

The basic jist posited on this DVD is that the US govt. was so impressed by Kubrick's technical savvy displayed in Dr. Strangelove that they hired him to direct all of the moon-landing footage that the world has ever seen, all fake. And that The Shining is actually a coded message from Kubrick, trying to tell this to the world. It is magnanimously conceded that the US did actually go to the moon. It's just that no *real* footage has ever been shown to the public. Only Kubrick's fake footage.

I literally laughed out loud when he started showing photos of the surface of the moon and superimposing lines on them which were meant to designate where the physical part of the studio set ends and the rear-projected "fake backdrop" begins. All he was actually doing was delineating the foreground and the background, something that naturally occurs in virtually all landscape photography. Not to mention that in several cases his drawn line didn't seem to coincide with anything shown in the photo.

Weidner, get a life. Dedicate yourself to exposing a REAL conspiracy, like JFK.

What can I declare about the total genius that's also highly enjoyable of 'Kubrick's Odyssey'.

When people use the term 'mind-blowing' in common everyday language, normally it's not YET
this is the correct along with ONLY terminology I can locate that connects with the entire
content within Weidner's documentary.

The results of which have lead to become more educated in the reading of literature & new
perspective on Kubrick's work.

If you are a Tutor at University teaching ANY social-science, I would suggest you show
this to your students especially those beginning their degrees.
As, it will show then the manner that secrets can manifest in plain sight even on a
massive scale hidden with major Motion-Pictures.

I will be buying further work from Weidner & can't wait for Part 2 of this Odyssey.
