I think that was the point. Kubrick was so reclusive, no one really knew what he looked like, and Malovich's character could get away with claiming to be him.

Exactly, I think it's suppossed to not look like him as the guy who claimed to be him didn't.

i felt mogwai knew that he wasn't meant to look like kubrick, cos that's the point of the story, and was being ironic.

that's my emotional interpretation of the situation.
under the paving stones.

I guess I'm the only one who preferred he had the facial hair.

it makes me a very emotional man every time pubrick stands up for me.

i see this film might flop cos the concept is very difficult to understand.

Ok, and is it just me or does Malkovich's Kubrick look incredibly lost in the head? Why does it look like there's nobody home? Since day one that I laid eyes on those pictures, the character of Kubrick looked like a 6 year old boy taking over the body of a much older genius. It's the eyes and the mouth really....

isn't Malkovich's Kubrick just a "Kubrick"?
