Kubrick's foray into history is worth a watch even to this day

Rating: Null/10 (14 December 2018)

Barry Lyndon is one of the most gorgeous looking films ever. It has been said that Kubrick used lenses that were under authoritative use only by NASA! Stanley Kubrick was already considered a master filmmaker when he made Barry lyndon and this film only enhanced his reputation. Barry Lyndon is about an outsider who marries into aristocrat and fakes his life. Ably played by Ryan O Neill Barry lyndon is characteristic of Kubrick from the slow takes to the pans and zooms and of course the cinematography- few films have utilized candles as well as this one. If you haven't seen this movie you should.
