A lot of information is out there in circulation when it comes to fun facts about my-way-or-the-highway director Stanley Kubrick. Most of what's out there seems to be overshadowed by the moon landing conspiracy, the creation of a new lens, or by stories of how he treated his actors, most of which are fairly well known by most, if not all, Kubrick fans.

So, I went scouring the net for some facts that were either brand spanking new to me or had, for one reason or another, slipped through the cracks of my awareness. The good news — as if it weren't painfully obvious enough — is that I found five fun ones that seem to be more lesser known. Take a gander at the dirt I dredged up, and be sure to let us know if we missed your favorite lesser known Kubrick factoid below!
