Contents:

Part I, The anatomy of the Kubrick soundscape. Language, lyrics, voice and sound ; Drawing lines and crossing borders : musical climates, the diegetic-nondiegetic border and voice-over narration -- Part II, Music-cinematic topics. Mysterious music with invisible edges and the emergence of musical form in The shining ; Reimagining music in Barry Lyndon -- Part III, We've met before : familiar pieces and their histories. The mutual inscription of music and drama ; Evolution and amnesia in the soundtrack of 2001: a space odyssey ; Musical dialectics and the more troublesome Beethoven ; Kubrick's spin on Max Ophüls and the ineluctable waltz.

Summary: Though the films of Stanley Kubrick have long been recognized for their innovation, visual impact, and challenging subject matter, they also feature unique and provocative uses of music that define Kubrick's work and that have made a lasting impact on filmmaking and multimedia more broadly. 'We'll Meet Again' takes the position that, for Kubrick, music is absolutely central to the themes, visual designs, and meanings in the films. 'We'll Meet Again' traces ways in which music assumes an important place for Kubrick throughout the working process and in the reception of the films as well.
