In this 4th episode of our video essay series 'Deconstructing Funny' we take a look at a filmmaker who isn't primarily known for his comedy - Stanley Kubrick. We explore specifically how he uses humour as a tool for subversion, focusing on films such as Dr. Strangelove, Lolita, The Shining, A Clockwork Orange and Full Metal Jacket.
