Our take
Stanley Kubrick, renowned for his groundbreaking contributions to cinema, began his artistic journey as a photographer in the 1940s, capturing the essence of urban life. His work for Look magazine allowed him to explore the vibrant energy of New York City, particularly through a captivating series of midnight subway photographs taken in 1945.
