I don't think I've seen Stanley Kubrick mentioned in this thread.

I honestly feel uncomfortable watching The Shining after realizing just how much he terrorized Shelly Duvall. She's not even really acting at a certain point, it's just her having a nervous breakdown because of his treatment of her. Scatman Crothers was forced to do a scene so many times he eventually just broke down into tears. Also, he pretty much harassed Stephen King, day and night, calling him at all hours and asking him bizarre questions while the movie was being produced. All this is even weirder when you read how protective he was over making sure Danny Lloyd wasn't exposed to any of the horror elements of the story.

Kubrick is considered one of the great, and a good chunk of his films are classic, but I think you could call him a controversial figure.

Do his other movies have as many hosed up stories surrounding it as The Shining does?
