Vivian Kubrick, daughter of famous filmmaker Stanley Kubrick, said in a social media post on Tuesday that her late father would support former President Trump if he were alive today.

Kubrick made the comments after the Trump campaign used some footage from Kubrick’s iconic film, “Full Metal Jacket,” in a campaign video that accompanied a post that said, “We will not have a woke military.” 

Kubrick pushed back on social media users who said her father would not have wanted clips from his movie used in Trump’s campaign ad.

“I agree in principle that an anti-war movie is incongruous with promoting the idea of a tough non-woke US military and thus war itself – however – these are very dangerous and strange times and thus using this footage is doubtless pure expedience. Because I’m sure the irony of using FMJ footage is not lost on Trump or his team – Trump is always seeking to end wars and use peaceful methods,” she wrote.

“However, that’s primarily what FMJ is about, the shocking and complicated paradoxes of human nature. And thus, on this tooth and claw planet, you need a very strong military – so I’m going to stick with the idea that FMJ footage was used primarily because of its powerful, realistic portrayal of boot camp, juxtaposed with the entirely demoralizing and inappropriate injection of WOKE ideology into the USA military. Which I agree with myself and which I’m certain my father would have agreed with,” she also wrote.

She noted that her father supported former President Ronald Reagan.

“My father had a great respect for life – his movies being unimpeachable evidence of his love for life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness!” she wrote. “So on that basis, I feel very confident he would be a Trump supporter and would forgive using FMJ incongruously, if it helps the cause of freedom! Capisce?”
