I wanted to like Barry Lyndon, but it bores me to sleep EVERY time. it is an absolutely beautiful film to look at, though. Great natural lighting and genuine period dress.

the shining... well, i will be crucifed for this, but i hate it. i read the book, and frankly the adaptation sucks. nicholson is incredible in it, though. i love shelley long, but she was severly miscast.


Word has it that Kubrick had some misgivings about her being cast, as well. He was always supportive of her in show, but in Stanley Kubrick: A Life in Pictures, you can see onset footage of him really giving her a hard time. There are also soundbites of them arguing circulating on the Internet.

Full metal jacket is THE greatest film of all time worship worship If it disturbed you good! That's what is supposed to do. Same with a clockwork orange. If you have not seen these two movies you MUST go rent them NOW. You can thank me later mr.green

I saw Full Metal Jacket this past weekend. That movie just disturbs me. That being said, I think it's an amazing piece of work. The entire basic training scene as well the characters are classic. Does anyone have a favorite Stanley Kubrick film?



this was a Gr8 movie but i was blown away by
Vincent D'Onofrio who was alos in Men In Black, The Cell & he's on Law & Order CI which is a Gr8 show as well...

the movie wouldn't have been shit w/out Vince...
Peace ... & Stay Funky ...
