This was Stanley at a point where he
had no physical resources at all.

:12:05
On Fridays, he dismissed the company
for a couple of hours. . .

:12:09
. . .went to the unemployment line and
collected his unemployment check. . .

:12:13
. . .because that's what he
was living on. It was $30 a week.

:12:18
He just about made it.
:12:20
He was very ambitious and he knew
this was gonna help him. . .

:12:23
. . .because once, there was a scene
in the morning, and the crew. . .

:12:27
. . .wasn't being paid much either.
Everyone was in a bad mood. He said:

:12:32
"Well, why don't we just take
the afternoon off?"

:12:36
I was amazed he was giving us
the day off.

:12:39
He always drove me home.
So on the ride home, I said:

:12:42
"Why are you always
so nice to everyone?"

:12:46
He said, "Honey, nobody's going to get
anything out of this movie but me. "

:12:51
The release of Killer's Kiss brought
Kubrick to James Harris' attention. . .

:12:56
. . .an up-and-coming producer
who had access to finance.

:13:00
They teamed up to form
Harris-Kubrick Pictures.

:13:03
The only thing is, we didn't have
anything to do.

:13:06
We had no subject to deal with.
:13:09
That night I left the office
and went to a bookstore. . .

:13:14
. . .and found a book
about the robbery of a race track.

:13:28
I don't suppose there's dinner.
:13:30
Of course, darling.
There are all sorts of things.

:13:33
-There's steak, asparagus, potatoes. . . .
-I don't smell nothing.

:13:36
You're too far away from it.
:13:38
Too far away from it?
:13:40
You don't think I had it all cooked,
do you? It's all at the store.

:13:44
I thought he was a kid.
:13:48
Both he and Jim were so very young.
:13:52
I'm guessing, but I think Stanley
was only 26 at the time.

:13:57
I don't think anything was difficult
for Stanley.
