Stanley Kubrick’s Daughter Addresses Moon Landing Conspiracy Theory
Variety ^ | 7/6/2016 | Lamarco McClendon

Posted on 07/06/2016 12:27:37 PM PDT by simpson96

As conspiracy theorists would have it, the biggest project that director Stanley Kubrick helmed is the Apollo 11 moon landing of 1969.

For decades, fringe groups have held that the U.S government hired Kubrick to shoot the “fake moon landing.” Now, as NASA’s Juno probe is expected to reach Jupiter this week, Kubrick’s daughter, Vivian, took to Twitter stating “this feels like the right time to respond.”

“There are many, very real conspiracies that have happened throughout our history,” Vivian Kubrick wrote. “But, claims that the moon landings were faked and filmed by my father? I just can’t understand it!!?”(snip)

She added, “… the so called ‘truth’ these malicious cranks persist in forwarding – that my father conspired with the US Government to ‘fake the moon landings’ – is manifestly A GROTESQUE LIE.”

Don’t tell Sheila Jackson the Mars landing was faked also.

“Kubrick did, however help the Beatles when Paul McCartney died unexpectedly in a car crash.”

As a longtime Beatles fan, that’s one I have never heard.

I was going to ask if she ever got her bushbaby.

Sorry!

And you're right, she asks for a bushbaby, she doesn't have one yet. My mistake, thanks for correction.

What I hate is there was very high quality video of the moon landing but NASA lost it.

I’m kidding. You’ve never heard of the “Paul is Dead” conspiracies?

One would have to get much of Cocoa, Cocoa Beach, Houston, and key people in many locations to be able to fake such an event as the multiple moon landings.

Who said that the majority of participants would necessarily realize a hoax was being perpetrated?

How many people were knowingly involved in the JFK cover-up?

The 0blah-blah cover-up?

The recent Lady Hag cover-up?

If it had been faked, the Soviets would have known and would have had a field day with the news!...............................

Nah, the conspiracy theorists have an answer for that one, too. I work with a guy who maintains they were faked, even why I can point to the science to debunk his theories. He said we stopped having "manned moon landings" because the Soviet's technology was getting good enough to detect that we were faking the landings.

Sadly for our nation, 45-50 years from now there will still be people claiming Sandy Hook, etc never happened, either.

Vivian Kubrick is the little girl who's on the picturephone

Well I'll be a monkey's uncle (which is OK, I was a chimp off the old block, and married the gorilla my dreams)

Remember the scene well, since I saw the movie at least ten times in theaters, when I was a teen living in Japan in '68. Lost a prospective girl friend over it; took her to see the movie, she was thoroughly confused by it, and probably didn't want to hear my hour-long excitedly-presented explanation. Present wife is the same with the movie, but at least she looked past the nerd to see the person beneath.

Thank you for that bit of trivia. Now, back to politics :-)

Whichever the reason, it is a derangement.

And England should know better than anyone else that rockets are real given they were the first victims of the V-2.

But Nothing Is Real.

and sooner or later the Holocaust.

So you deny the Wannseekonferenz took place in 1942?

Her mother, Christiane Kubrick, was seriously pretty. The only way Stanley had any kind of shot at her is because he was directing Paths of Glory, in which she acted.

They were married in 1958, and stayed together until his death in 1999.

The fact that you disagree means you are most likely part of the conspiracy. /s
