The book entitled Napoleon came about as a direct result of the unused research material Stanley Kubrick collected, in his research for the movie that he dreamed about making but never got the chance to. The colossal volume of research he carried out is now contained inside the book. You could make it yourself if you want, as every single bit of information pertaining to the project has recently been published in the form of a book called Stanley Kubrick’s Napoleon: The Greatest Movie Never Made. It’s ten books in one (literally, with nine books sitting inside one enormous carved out fake book), limited to 1,000 copies, and costs £450. All the location scouting photos, all the research pictures, costume tests, correspondence with historical experts, Kubrick’s script – it’s all contained inside this wonderful book.
Unboxing of the massive volume designed by M/M (Paris) and edited by Alison Castle, that contains all the elements from Stanley Kubrick’s archives compiled into 10 smaller books.
