Kubrick started his career as a photographer. He entered the field by selling amateur photos to New York's
Look magazine, then was hired by the magazine as a full-time photographer. An avid moviegoer, Kubrick was convinced he could make better films than he saw, and he set to prove his claim right. His first feature films, Fear and Desire and Killer's Kiss, caught the attention of Hollywood, and he won major acclaim for the classic film noir
The Killing
before making the award-winning Paths of Glory, a World War I drama. Kubrick's unique filmmaking style developed with these pictures, and his trademarks became clear: long takes, extensive tracking shots, and a cold, distant style that some claim drain the tenderness and humanity out of his stories (which were always at least partially adapted from another medium).
