: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.
:14:01
He had this tremendous confidence
and if he hadn't. . .
:14:05
. . .I don't think he could have worked
with Lucien Ballard as he had.
:14:09
The cameraman was Lucien Ballard.
:14:11
Lucien had, I believe,
won an Academy Award. . .
:14:14
. . .was regarded as one of the top 1 2
or so photographers in the business.
:14:20
He was a particularly stylish fellow,
married to Merle Oberon. . .
:14:27
. . .a classic example of the old-style
cinematographer.
:14:29
Stanley had done his own photography
on his two previous films. . .
:14:34
. . .so he knew exactly what he wanted,
and I think that Ballard. . .
:14:37
. . .resented this kid from New York.
:14:40
The first shot of the picture,
first day, first shot. . .
:14:44
. . .Stanley set up a shot.
It was quite complex.
:14:48
It was a long dolly shot.
:14:51
And he's lined it up specifically
with a 25 mm lens.
:14:54
He set it up and turned it over
to Lucien and Lucien said, "Fine" . . .
:14:59
. . .and began the elaborate business of
lighting and setting a dolly track.
