The Hollywood Masters: George Miller on Stanley Kubrick 

It was nice of George to dress as Dr Strangelove for the occasion.

Miller is one of those filmmakers who really needs to be given more credit. The original Mad Max for me is one of the best Hollywood success stories I can think of. The idea that this doctor from Melbourne with his own money went out and shot a movie like that and became a sensation around the world is inspiring to me.

First time I've watched an interview that Galloway didn't interrupt the majority of answers given. Fantastic and fascinating interview.

I love George Miller. He always seems so sweet and kind during the interviews I've seen him in, and could listen to him talk about films all day.

And all the more incredible that this was the same creative genius behind *_both_* the totally bonkers Mad Max, and the completely charming Babe!

Kubrick was so far ahead of his time that he invented searching for RU-vid reviews decades before RU-vid was invented.

Please upload the full episode soon LMU! pleasssss. Thank you :)

Mad Max Fury Road is proof that this guy never slowed down, he only evolved and mastered his craft. The original Mad Max and The Road Warrior are two timeless masterpieces. 👌

If George ever wanted to represent the manufacturer of that leather jacket he's been wearing for every interview, it could pay for the next film's catering. Why no one has ever asked to see what the label is after all this time is baffling. Even without George showing it, you'd think the designer/manufacturer would have made a play by now...

Mad Max 1 is a flat-out work of art. The camera is always moving, the shots are constantly interestingly composed. The editing is superb, it's riveting but beautifully made. For me personally, he rapidly lost that intensity with subsequent films, but who cares.

Ahhh good old GMiller! His keen attention to landscape is the reason why MadMax (new and Old) are so good. he makes you understand the scope and range of his storytelling by SIZE. Also he knows how to play a good "fuse" to move a story. He tells stories like they are a lit fuse to a piece of TNT. You know something fucking HUGE is about to happen but you just do not know quite how it will. Something Kubrick only did in Spartacus...he came close in BLyndon and FMJ but the grand scope of the cinematic element....Miller knew much much better. Kubrick may be the best storyteller ever to make films but Miller knows how to SHOW the SCALE of the event at hand. If these two made a film together I feel it would be EPIC!

Stanley Kubrick getting reviews of books from various people is the equivalent to using the Internet today He wanted a variety of takes on the same information that his own biased mind might possibly overlook some subtle detail bringing an element beyond his own knowledge

I want him to make Babe the lead in his next Mad Max movie

And here I came, expecting Joji to comment on Kubrick

Sound is shit.. but the interview is insightful and a joy to watch.

Interesting that the the shots achieved in Mad Max 2 (aka The Road Warrior) which are still some of the most visceral ever captured, were more the work of Byron Kennedy; the character development was more overseen by Miller.

Imagine if George Miller were to make a Star Wars movie... I think that would rock!

George is so sorted...

I thought they were alone. It scared me a little in the last shot when an entire audience is there watching them talk, lol. Creepy.

Very good summary of Film School. Thanks. mom

for me personally Stanley Kubrick Alfred Hitchcock Sergio Leone Brian de Palma John Carpenter David Cronenberg Wes Craven David Fincher John Landis Dario Argento George A.Romero David Lynch and Tobe Hooper are the most influential on me

A11 work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.

Interesting. Directors must have a language they understand

miller is a genius...yet he fell into the trap of first film being Xcert the second 15cert and the third a PG....it was probably the studio..the story he recount about KUBRICK reminds me of a cult Bogart movie"IN A LONLEY PLACE"

Who killed Byron Kennedy?

This guy's head is absolutely enormous, testosterone went crazy on his features

His accent is intermittent.

Who the *hell* is Stanley Kubricks?

What on earth is that?

George tries to correct his pronunciation... to no avail.
