Stanley Kubrick's 1968 epic sci-fi movie 2001: A Space Odyssey was inspired by Arthur C. Clarke's short story The Sentinel and chronicled a series of encounters between humanity and mysterious black monoliths and their apparent involvement in human evolution. Keir Dullea and Gary Lockwood star as astronauts who undertake a fantastic voyage with the sentient computer HAL 9000 after discovering such a monolith on the Moon emitting a signal into space.
