Kubrick worked pretty closely with Arthur C Clarke.
IIRC Clarke wasn't happy with the result. The film would probably not have been as good without his help, however.
- the_af 10y agoIs there a source for this? I always thought Clarke was so satisfied with the movie that he actually wrote his book sequels to better match the movie rather than the first book! (Personally, I think Kubrick's movie is a masterpiece and far superior to Clarke's first book, which is an ok but entirely forgettable and minor work of SF).
- kabdib 10y agoI recalled incorrectly; Clarke was apparently pretty happy with it. I must have been thinking of some other SF film. . .
