Stanley Kubrick

Throwback Thursday is a weekly update that we do here on Caught on Set. Every Thursday we post pictures from the set of a movie you haven’t seen in a while, or possibly ever.

The legendary Stanley Kubrick is seen on the set of his classic film 2001: A Space Odyssey. With a Domestic Lifetime Gross of $56,954,992, including $239,000 from a 2001 re-issue, the movie ranks 1,090th on the all time domestic chart. Once you adjust for inflation it rises up to 130th place. *Numbers from Box Office Mojo

That's not bad for a movie that was rated "G." Released in 1968, 2001: A Space Odyssey pushed the limits of imagination and has since been referenced in countless movies. 2001 is ranked as the number 15 greatest film of all time on the AFI's Top 100 list. If you haven't seen this film yet, you really should.
