Besides, the story of how Napoleon was nearly-but-not-quite made exemplifies Kubrick’s sky-high ambition, his ravenous intellectual curiosity and his obsessive planning. Critics regularly hail it as the greatest and most tantalising unfinished film of all. As odd as that might seem, Kubrick fans are almost as fixated on Napoleon – to use its working title – as they are on anything else in his awe-inspiring canon. But its opening section is devoted to a film he didn’t make: a biopic of Napoleon Bonaparte. The Stanley Kubrick exhibition at London’s Design Museum examines the making of every one of the extraordinary director’s films.
