The forty-seventh anniversary of the Apollo 11 moon landing
has brought the possibility of it being faked back into the public
consciousness. A recent development in the run-up to the anniversary is the reignition
of the idea that the hoaxed moon landing footage had been directed by Stanley
Kubrick. I talk about this in detail in these background links.

background: http://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.co.uk/2015/12/kubrick-moon-hoax-confession.html.
This time the daughter of the famous film director has
spoken out. Vivian Kubrick has written an open letter on the subject:
I actually think she makes some good points here. Why would
Stanley Kubrick agree to such a dastardly and monumental lie against American
citizens and the world? He was indeed renowned for his anti-establishment views,
and he expresses them in many of his films. He was also good friends with the
Russian film director Andrei Tarkovsky; this was during the Cold War when the
Soviet regime in Russia
was at its prime. If you were the perpetrator of the conspiracy to fake the
moon landings would you recruit somebody who you knew had a social conscience
and was in contact with a Soviet celebrity? What's more there was also the
possibility of him blowing the whistle very publicly. Somebody that famous with
all that information would be a liability. His absence would also be noticed by
the rest of the Hollywood community while he was busy
strutting around a studio at Area 51 yelling "ACTION!" No, far better
to bring in somebody less-well known who would be ignored if he spoke out.
What's more this nobody would make an equally small ripple if he "fell
under a bus" one day. Together with the other points I raise in the
background links, above and below, I doubt very much that Stanley Kubrick was
the director of the fake moon landings. The most interesting thing about Vivian
Kubrick's letter is not what she says, but what she doesn't say. She defends her later father robustly, but she does
not comment on the general question of whether or not the moon landings were
real. She just tells us her dad didn't do them. (source: http://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/films/news/stanley-kubrick-daughter-vivian-kubrick-apollo-11-moon-landing-conspiracy-theory-a7122186.html)
