The Festival presented an exceptional (complete!) retrospective of Stanley Kubrick’s work, on the occasion of the screening of Steven Spielberg’s A.I. Artificial Intelligence, based on an original adaptation by Stanley Kubrick on which he had worked for nearly twelve years. Tributes were paid to Julianne Moore, Burt Reynolds, Joel Silver and posthumously to James Dean; Oliver Stone was given “Carte Blanche”. A symposium was organized around the theme: “The influence of new technologies on creation in future cinema”.
