The entire film — set to run at 6 p.m. tonight — will be shown from beginning to end as the filmmakers present a master class on Kubrick's technique with additional commentary from Kirk Douglas, producer Jim Harris and actor Richard Anderson.

“This event is especially exciting because director David Spodak and producer Charles Moore will be presenting the film,” said Leana Donofrio, the adult and electronic services specialist for the Lakewood Public Library.

The showing is free and will be presented in the library’s main auditorium.
