and lastly, the truly bizarre response from the Kubrick Estate:
"The Herts Advertiser asked the Kubrick family’s representative a series of questions in response to allegations in The Guardian, including whether by using the tax haven, members had saved thousands of pounds in inheritance tax.
She replied: “Stanley Kubrick was a citizen of the United States. His estate is a U.S. estate handled by a major U.S trust company.
“That company attends to all the financial matters related to the estate, with advice from their U.S. lawyers and their colleagues in the United Kingdom to assure that any activities are appropriate.”"

It's a very disturbing response from the Kubrick Estate representative, implying that Kubrick left all his assets to some anonymous "US trust company" and nothing to his family or anyone else. It's sheer nonsense, PR spin, legalistic gobbledegook, and further evasion. But all the facts are now known.
