I simply don't have the experience with film, but naively thought that there was no playback. You shoot it, its in the magazine, its done... But now hearing Kubrick say "lets playback the last 4 takes" makes me feel alright that i playback as much as i can. I think his directing style is rather unique, and i'd like to see more of the process with him and the cameras, guiding composition amongst other things. He speaks of lenses, but so far nothing of lighting, etc... i know we're probably not going to see this ever, but still i find it fascinating. thank you for posting this. pk what i find interesting throughout this documentary is the heavy use of playback.
