Let's give Camilla a round of applause for officially completing her Stanley Kubrick movie quest! 👏👏🎉🎉 Happy Sunday. This is also my other favorite Kubrick movie alongside The Shining (1980) and Full Metal Jacket (1987). Just like with those two, I own this movie on DVD in 4:3 Full-Screen format, which is also the full aspect ratio of the original camera negative as Stanley Kubrick intended.

I think this is the only Kubrick movie I watched in which I was bored almost the entire time. My favorite Kubrick movies are A Clockwork Orange (although it rates high as one of the strangest movies I’ve seen), Dr. Strangelove and the basic training half of Full Metal Jacket (the second half is pretty good too). The Shining was very good filmmaking, but horror films just don’t do it for me. If I had to pick a horror film that I had to watch, The Shining might be my choice.

I really enjoy this one. The way Tom Cruise is pushed forward by jealousy and desire into what kind of ends up being a comedy of errors.

I think David Lynch films would be a great journey in chronological order, which would also include Twin Peaks.

This was interesting watching again after certain things have come to light in the news recently. This whole movie just screams EPSTEIN CLASS to me now lol.

Camilla's Corner

I was definitely thinking it felt a little Epstein-y ... 😅

John

I think with all the Epstein files stuff going on, there is some truth to what Kubrick is trying to expose here. There are also subtle hints of pedophilia in the movie. And some people believe that the ending which seems anti-climatic, that there is actually something going on with the daughter. That she is being allowed to go off with two other men. Also, that Kubrick died suddenly after this film, 666 days before 9/11.

My top 4 Kubrick films Dr. Strangelove, Paths of Glory, Lolita and Full Metal Jacket

Camilla's Corner

yeah, the shop owner's daughter plotline was very disturbing

I adore this film so much. I watch it at the cinema every Christmas and I find it more entrancing and powerful every time. Arthur Schnitzler's original story is called Traumnovelle, or Dream Story, and it's appropriate that so much of Kubrick's film has the woozy, heightened, slightly unreal quality of a dream. I think its exploration of marriage, deception, desire and sexual insecurity is so rich and fascinating, and it's also really funny in places. I love the way Bill acts like his doctor's license and a wad of cash is enough to open any door, only to bump up against a rarefied strata of society that is closed off to him. Kidman is absolutely electric in this film (and I honestly don't know if any woman has ever looked more beautiful on screen) but I think Cruise's performance is undervalued. It's fascinating to me that he made Eyes Wide Shut and Magnolia in the same year - the two best performances of his career, and the last time he allowed himself to be truly vulnerable and a tool of a director's vision. As an aside, my favourite bit of trivia related to this film is that when Kubrick was originally developing the project in the 1970s, he considered Woody Allen for the lead role. There can't be too many projects for which he and Tom Cruise were both up for the same part!

Henry Graham

I applaud you for completing your Kubrick journey! I truly believe this is the best way to discover a filmmaker, and I hope you do it again, as it's something that sets you apart from other reactors. If you pick a filmmaker and watch a handful of their "top" films (an entirely subjective notion) you'll end up watching the same films as everyone else and you'll miss some gems. Take Scorsese for example; films like After Hours, The Colour of Money, The Last Temptation of Christ, The Age of Innocence or Bringing Out the Dead are never likely to win a poll based on popularity, but I'd argue they are all brilliant films and deserve a reaction just as much as his masterpieces. My recommendations for the next chronological director journey would be: Martin Scorsese, who is simply the greatest living American filmmaker as far as I'm concerned. An awesome body of work. David Lynch, whose filmography is similarly astounding and has a pretty great TV series under his belt too. Terrence Malick, whose first five films are perfect. Opinions vary on what comes afterwards but I find his experimental style exhilarating. Francis Ford Coppola: Everyone reacts to his 70s masterpieces, but I'm particularly fond of his post-bankruptcy 80s work. Robert Altman: American cinema's great indestructible maverick! nobody had higher highs and lower lows!

I feel like this movie could've been shorter by about 30 minutes. The slowness dialogue created tension, but I kept thinking "C'mon already. We know where this is going."
