Kubrick obviously felt that such things are normalcy and that our everyday world is completely contrived. What hogwash.
[/ QUOTE ] There are strong undercurrents running beneath "our world", our world as individual human beings, even when we are settled and happy (as in "happily married"). We know from psychoanalysis that we indeed "contrive" daily routine to keep neurosis at bay.
