In the case of The Loved One, I was hired to collaborate on an updated version of the book.

After Strangelove I also started work on an adaptation of The Collector.

It's often the case with directors that they don't like to share credit, which is the case of Stanley. He would prefer just A Film By Stanley Kubrick including music and everything.

When Kubrick decided to go the black comedy route with his movie, he thought of me to give it that flavor.

An absolutely devastating ridicule of all that is false, primitive, and vicious in current American life: the abuses of power, hero worship, aimless violence, materialistic obsession, intolerance, and every form of hypocrisy.

Writing on a contract for a major studio you get the very best.
