Review of Filmworker

I really liked this doc but I am sure that behind all the things left unsaid was a man who was abused by the Great Auteur. What kind of salary could Leon Vitali have been paid for his services to the Great One? Surely a percentage of gross would have been in order. I may never have gone to see 2001 in the theater; a movie I thought was the greatest film ever until the Next Greatest Film. I really can't abide the possibility that Kubrick was so insecure and parsimonious that he kept Vitali as his personal Gofer so he could exclude the rest of the world from being exposed to the inner workings of his insecure mind. Could it be that Kubrick simply kept this mild mannered man as a shield against criticism? Detestable thought surely. I will never view Dr. Strangelove and 2001 again in the same way that I did in my 20s. Another Hollywood secret never to be revealed.
