Other than Eyes Wide Shut I don't think there is a Kubrick film I don't love.
Movie/film suggestions.
While this is of course a forum for the discussion of all things audio/hi-fi and music, pretty much all of us are also lovers of movies, the enjoyment of which is effected by the reproduction of the sound they contain (with the exception of silent movies ).
I've been focused on David Lynch movies since his death, but with current events so much a part of our lives at the moment, I plan on re-watching a movie I’ve seen only once, and years ago. That movie is:
The Madness Of King George. Apropos, no?

@noromance: I didn’t mean for my use of the term ridiculous to be taken literally, as a pejorative dismissal. I love Eraserhead, but I knew the store manager would consider my choice ridiculous. Which she did.
@hifiguy42: My favorite of Kubrick’s is Dr. Strangelove.

Yes, 'Madness' is appropriate indeed. I'm a huge David Lynch fan - he and Stanley Kubrick were always my 2 favorite film-makers; the painter and the still photographer - when he announced a few weeks ago that he'd had emphysema for 4 years and needed oxygen to walk across his living room, I was expecting that sad news at any time. Lynch and Kubrick were certainly mutual admirers of each other's work.... 'Mulholland Dr' is my all-time favorite film. Loved 'Dr Strangelove', 'Lolita' and the rest, but my fave Kubrick would be a tie between '2001' and 'A Clockwork Orange'. It's raining, I'm singing. |
