Had the great pleasure of a behind the scenes tour of the Kubrick Archive at the University of the Arts London.

One item struck me as most singular and evocative of Kubrick's wild attention to detail.

The archivist brought out a box containing a full ream of A4 paper on which was repeatedly typed "All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy" from the famous scene. Every page had a slightly different layout, mistakes and all, for 500 pages. Every single one typed by hand. We stood in awe at this grotesque achievement used to fill only a few seconds of film.

And then the archivist brought out the identical boxes for Italian, French, Spanish, German, all typed by hand with a different, locally chilling phrase for each.

My shock at this has almost outlasted my admiration.
