The well-attended event has been covered by SHU PhD candidate Mars Nicol\u00ed:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The series of research seminars <em>ON THE RADAR<\/em> continues with an exploration of the Kubrick legacy. Through his work in the Kubrick archive, and an (at times conflictual) collaboration with his estate, Fenwick offers a refreshing counternarrative to the mythos around Kubrick, questioning his role as a cultural icon, the rebel \u201cgenius artist\u201d film history remembers him as.<\/p>\n<p>Instead, the talk put a spotlight on those left behind, exploited and forgotten in the creation of this legend: the thwarting of trade unions and overworking of crew, and above all, the women abused and objectified in the process. Amongst many stands Sue Lyon, who was sexualised and objectified in and out of character as a 14-years old Lolita. The personal correspondence between her and the film\u2019s producer casts an even darker shadow on the production and on what was considered normal on Kubrick\u2019s sets.<\/p>\n<p>The talk brought these issues at the forefront of the conversation, and raised important questions on the cult of personalities in the industry which led to a stimulating Q&amp;A engaging with cancel culture, forgotten legacies, and larger issues of misogyny in the industry.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>By Mars Nicol\u00ed<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>For more information about <em>ON THE RADAR<\/em>, or to add your name as a future presenter, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shu.ac.uk\/about-us\/our-people\/staff-profiles\/diane-rodgers\">contact Dr Diane A.
