| Description | During filming the unionised force majeure was applied [clause in contracts which frees both/either parties from liability or obligation when an extraordinary event or circumstance beyond the control of the parties prevents one or both parties from fulfilling their obligations under the contract] due to Malcolm McDowell's illness. Identical letters, 9 Nov 1970, were sent to each cast and crew member confirming suspension of filming from 5 Nov 1970. There is also a summary of the situation with copy letters attached, 11 Nov 1970 from Bernard Williams to Stanley Kubrick.
