How 2001: A Space Odyssey Became "the Hardest Film Kubrick Ever Made"

‘I want to make a movie that changes the form,’ Kubrick would often say to Spielberg. He arguably achieved this already with 2001, as it immerses first-time viewers in an unprecedented cinematic experience. Spielberg remembers being 'clean as a whistle' entering the theater, but came out 'altered'—the film itself served as an experience more potent than drugs.
