Was this Kubrick's greatest pleb filter?

>Even Kubrick didn't like this fucking film
Lol source, shit quints

List of my favorites:
1. Barry Lyndon
2. Eyes Wide Shut
3. The Shining
4. Lolita
5. Full Metal Jacket
6. 2001: A Space Odyssey
7. A Clockwork Orange

I got plebfiltered on:
1. Dr. Strangelove (but I haven't had a chance to watch it on my own yet)
2. Spartacus

Haven't seen many of his early films. Any recommendations on those?

he died before getting to see the final cut, dipshit

what a fucking waste

Nigga he fucking hated it. He thought it was pure shit.

t.Google

How the fuck do I find orgies? I know it won't be glamorous like Eyes Wide Shut, I just want some pussy

He died in the middle of post production. No one knows what his thoughts would be on it

He directed it. He obviously saw edits of it. It's very well known he didn't like it.

Stop trying to be spoonfed like a fucking baby.

>Spartacus
It wasn't his film, it was Kirk's. It is a great film like a lot of those big studio epics of the time but not a Kubrick
Watch Paths of Glory immediately and The Killing is also good, surprisingly funny, but you can definitely see his style wholly forming in Paths

Try dogging. Although I wouldn't. From what I know it's just a bunch of old men wanking over a couple of people (Old people) fucking in a car.

You made a claim, I asked for a source, you provide none. You're not seriously going on R Lee Ermy's quote?

Only seen it once, I still find the whole mansion party far creepier than 90% of actual horror films. I'm in no rush to rewatch the rest of it though.

Thanks will do
I thought something felt off about Spartacus, I figured it must have just been a product of his formative years. thanks for the explanation

bro, you absolutely have to watch Paths of Glory. it's my favourite war movie ever and it outdid "saving private ryan" 40 years prior

So? I made a claim, most people know that claim to be true, I don't have to provide you with anything.

You don't wanna do your own research on the issue and live in a bubble of ignorance and delusion? That's your problem, not mine.

He died before the sound design had really even started. The cut that was shown to the studio execs lacked any music and is 24 minutes longer than the theatrical cut. Even if Kubrick said he didn't like it (which he didn't) he didn't even see the same film everyone else did

is barry lyndon any good or is it a boring load of shite? Don't actually know anything about what the films about, only what the opinons I've read about it on here

It's good. Not his best, but better than 2001

It's shit, user. It's a shit film. I've seen it. It's AWFUL and easily his worst.

If you don't rate FMJ or The Shining as his best you're a serious fucking pleb who belongs on the contrarian train along with the rest of reddit.

>most people know that claim to be true
Lol source
>I don't have to provide you with anything.
You do because you made an extraordinary claim that I can't find evidence for

That's your opinion, but don't pretend Kubrick felt the same way

t. Im a faggot and i dont need to prove it to you

I had a google and the only source is R Lee Ermey saying kubrick told him it was a piece of shit, but his claim was denied by friends and family of Kubrick so that user is probably full of shit

It's amazing. Seeing a lot of Kubrick regulars in that time period is really nice

>You do because you made an extraordinary claim

No I don't. I can make any claim I like and not provide a single source or piece of evidence. Who the fuck says I have to? You? If you don't believe it then don't, I don't give a fuck.

If you're plugged into money in any decently-sized city there is usually an orgy scene although most of the time it's pretty much married couples and attractive single women. In fact, women tend to be shot-callers in most orgy scenes.

paths of glory
dr strangelove until you like it

No, A Clockwork Orange was and continues to be his greatest pleb filter.
The continual assertion that only edgelords could prefer it is proof of this.

MEIN FUHRER... I CAN WALK

>The continual assertion that only edgelords could prefer it is proof of this
i realized that on like my tenth viewing. always liked it but couldn't divorce it fully from the high school days.

You can't claim I'm wrong then because I know I'm not and I know you're basing your opinion soley on Ermey's line which is dubious at best. Fuck off.

I don't care, user. I KNOW I'm right.

This is the last (You) you're getting from me. Don't spend it all at once.

"Barry Lyndon is Kubrick's best" is the clearest pseud-marker in existence. His fumbling imitation of a painterly style and period-piece aesthetics, mastered by Griffith half a century earlier, is as dull as it is derivative.
Shooting on 'le special NASA stem lens' is always brought up as if it were some empirical evidence of genius. It isn't unique. David Lean had a lens specially made just for one shot in Lawrence. Hitchcock had to do extensive modifications to create the Vertigo effect without having a zoom lens. Welles was one of the first to utilize 18mm in Touch of Evil. Jacques Tourneur did amazing things with filters and Technicolor to mimic watercolor vistas in Way of a Gaucho. To say nothing of what Griffith accomplished with 1910s technology.
But even aside from the over hyping of the film's technical aspects, Barry Lyndon is worthless. It's a Bresson-ified 30s costume picture incapable of escaping its lowbrow picaresque entertainment roots (dissertations about fate et al.) Just like everything with Kubrick, it's calculated to appease the middle and lowbrow. To make them feel as if they are experiencing culture, as if they are "learning" something profound. This is peak cinematic art for people that have never seen more than 20 films from 1900-1938 tops.

Is this pasta or is the Griffithfag back?

thanks for the laugh user

Fucking pure cringe

the nazis escaped earth from argentina to their moonbase, which was the entitr pretense for the vietnam war. this is well known. kubrick discovered it when he went to space to film the moon landing in 1969, which is why he used the camera he did to film barry lyndon. you'd have to be a complete retard to think it was for any other reason. the story is clearly to anyone with a bit of sense an autobiographical film about kubrick's life to that point.

just like alex fantasizing about the sexy parts of the bible, high school kids will almost always enjoy clockwork for its lurid imagery

WHAT IS THE PASSWORD?

And it went over the heads of teens at the time, tabloids claiming copycat crimes had been done, Kubrick pulled from the UK permanently

No The Killing is. To think that's just a simple crime movie when it's incredibly multifaceted and esoteric.

A Clockwork Orange is a good book too.
Shame the same can't be said for The Shining.
le dabs at the mouth because alchoholic

Barry Lyndon
Eyes Wide Shut

Rest of his movies are honestly shit but those two are masterpieces

Leave this thread.

i have never seen a bigger waste of digits on my life

>for people that have never seen more than 20 films from 1900-1938 tops.

lol.

Ok maybe not shit, im just shitposting but those two are clearly his best

banal acrimony

always hard to rank his movies, but i definitely agree with your 1 and 2.

So what was the point of the lady whose husband dies?

i think one of the several meanings of the movie is to show different sexual tensions
between husband and wife
prostitution
lust between friends (the scenario you mention)
the cult
idk just a thought i had. plus that storyline was in the book

no. barry lyndon was

looks like someone got plebfiltered HARD

she is for all intents and purposes alice

It's a black comedy scene. Daughter lusts over a man not her husband while her dad is dying right next to them. Also more sex stuff.

Overanalzying. How Many Keaton films have you seen? What's your favorite Luis Bunuel Film?

I hate how Ebert approached movies like A Clockwork Orange and Blue Velvet. Whenever a movie portrayed rape or violence against women, he hated it. But then he thought Irreversible was fine. Did he not understand the point of telling a story?

>Daughter lusts over a man not her husband while her dad is dying right next to them
>comedy
Good work r*ddit based analysis

Excellent digits. This surely confirmed Sir Stanley Kubrick as the greatest Briitsh director of the 20th century.

Because he's a beta cucked by his black wife and her kids. Do you think a weak man like that would be able to handle it? He's almost always right though, so who cares

easily his best movie

Who the fuck cares what ebert thinks anyway you goddamn beta bitch plebbitor

I remember being horrified by that slow zoom and head turns on my first watch. KINO.

Where's Fear and Desire?
