Kubrick and the Fake Moon Landing

A new documentary questions whether Kubrick helped the US government fake the Apollo 11 moon landing

The late Stanley Kubrick is one of Hollywood’s great directors. The hidden meanings and symbolism in his films continue to be debated by fans the world over. Kubrick stayed away from such discussions, preferring that viewers interpret films themselves. A new documentary, Room No 237, questions whether Kubrick helped the US government fake the Apollo 11 moon landing, and suggests that he may have used the filming of his 2001: A Space Odyssey as research before creating the moon landing footage for the US government. The documentary also theorises that Kubrick’s The Shining was an indirect apology to people for misleading them with a bogus moon landing.
