Still wonderfully relevant

Rating: 10/10 (22 December 2007)

In 1965, My Fair Lady won the big awards, but this film will more than likely outlast that film given its wonderful performances by Peter Sellers and George C Scott. The supporting cast is brilliant and the imagery of the filmmaker will leave indelible images in the minds of movie goers for all time. There are great quotes, seemingly contrived situations and wonderful characterizations which are uncomfortably still pertinent to people in power today. In many ways this is not a film which matches the cinematic expertise of Kubrik, but it does reveal the excellence in his film-making overall.
Thanx, Stanley - still great.
