Stanley Kubrick is probably the region’s most distinguished film maker. Based near St Albans for much of his working life, Kubrick made 12 feature films which earned him a reputation as one of the leading film directors of his generation.

Kubrick’s films include:
2001, A Space Odyssey
A Clockwork Orange
Full Metal Jacket
Dr. Strangelove
