Black Cat Auditions In Hollywood, 1961

New York, 1940s, by Stanley Kubrick

“Kubrick’s striking black and white images of 1940s New York City — which were often shot on the sly, his camera concealed in a paper bag with a hole in it — hint at the dark beauty and psychological drama of his later creative output."
“Before he started making movies, Stanley Kubrick was a star photojournalist."
