« J'sors un sourire, j'me dis qu'il est faux, c'est pas normal d'être si malheureux J'dors pas à deux heures, j'me dis qu'il est tôt, j'vois mes démons mais j'suis pas peureux » discours sur la misère-Victor Hugo

Kubrick convinced Romania's army to lend him 50,000 soldiers at $2 per person per day. He had a company in New York make fireproof paper military uniforms at $4 each so he could dress all of them without going bankrupt. The movie never got made. After 2001: A Space Odyssey wrapped, Kubrick poured two straight years into a Napoleon film. He hired an Oxford history professor named Felix Markham along with 20 of Markham's grad students. They put together 25,000 handwritten index cards logging every day of Napoleon's life. Each card was color-coded by character. They tracked where Napoleon slept each night, who he exchanged letters with, what the weather was like during his battles, what he had for dinner. Kubrick also collected around 15,000 location photos and 17,000 slides of paintings and uniforms from the era, then built his own filing system from scratch to organize the whole thing. David Hemmings, the lead from Blow-Up, was cast as Napoleon. Kubrick went after Audrey Hepburn for Josephine. She turned him down (she was going through a divorce at the time). The role of Napoleon eventually went to Jack Nicholson, years before the two made The Shining. The tweet blames Waterloo for killing the project, and the Waterloo part is real. In 1970, a Russian-Italian production called Waterloo attempted a Napoleon-era battle film. The budget was somewhere between $25 million and $40 million. They used 15,000 Soviet soldiers as extras. Bulldozed hills. Planted fields of rye to recreate the real battlefield. It earned $1.4 million in the US. Absolute bomb. But that was one part of a bigger mess. MGM, which had just backed 2001, was losing interest in movies and getting into the casino business. On top of Waterloo tanking, a massive Soviet adaptation of War and Peace had already come and gone in the same space. And a British TV show called Napoleon and Love flopped around the same time. Three separate Napoleon-related projects all blew up within a few years. No studio wanted to go near the subject after that. Kubrick took the screenplay to United Artists. They turned him down too. He never threw out the research. Barry Lyndon, his 1775-set period film from 1975, pulled from years of Napoleon prep work (locations, costumes, historical detail). Those candlelight scenes in Barry Lyndon, the ones that look like oil paintings come to life, were shot using special camera lenses originally made for NASA's Moon program. Only 10 of these lenses ever existed. NASA bought six. Kubrick got the last three. He had planned to use that exact technique for Napoleon's indoor palace scenes. The screenplay is still around. Spielberg and HBO started trying to make it into a miniseries back in 2013. Cary Fukunaga, who directed the first season of True Detective, was attached in 2016. By late 2021, Fukunaga said all the episode scripts were finished. Over a decade in, it still has not been filmed. Kubrick got so far inside Napoleon's head that he started copying the man's habits at dinner. Malcolm McDowell watched him eat during Clockwork Orange prep. Dessert, then steak, then dessert again, back and forth through the whole meal. McDowell asked what he was doing. Kubrick told him, "This is the way Napoleon ate."

Stanley Kubrick’s Napoleon is the greatest film never made. He spent years researching, built a massive card index of Napoleon’s life, scouted locations, and planned to use tens of thousands of real soldiers as extras. Studio fear after Waterloo killed it.

C’est confirmé, des poursuites pénales sont actuellement envisagées par le gouvernement pour les propos tenus sur CNews visant le maire de Saint-Denis. Que le nouveau maire LFI @BallyBagayoko adopte une posture victimaire, cela n’étonne personne. En revanche, que le gouvernement s’engouffre dans cette polémique, en instrumentalisant le combat antiraciste à son avantage, c’est vraiment malsain et immoral.
