	Don't know about Hyams, but I think you're too generous to Kubrick
in suggesting he's easy to work with. He is one of the movie industry's
biggest perfectionists, and probably holds the record for average number
of takes required per finished scene. His insistance on getting an exact
transcription of his personal vision on the screen is probably what has
allowed him to make great films with some mediocre actors (Keir Dullea,
Ryan O'Neil, Marissa Berensen [sp?]), but it has also given him a reputation
for being dictatorial. He tends to treat actors as automatons to be programmed.
