Final Valentine to the world.

Rating: Null/10 (3 December 2001)

***SPOILERS*** ***SPOILERS*** Kubrik was sure good to us during his long career. Not every movie has to be a Hollywood blockbuster and not every director has to be doing what everybody else is doing. This movie invites you to take your time and think things over if you care to. One gets the feeling that Kubrik didn't feel the need to explain, but to show. I'll play the game by taking a stab at what it means. These two people live in a world that is not garaunteed to be real, and is often confusing and misleading. Is it all just a dream? They connect with each other in a manner so profound that their disbelief is mutually suspended. There is at least one other person in the world, to whome they are each married, conveniently enough. Then there is a great crisis in their relationship and each must take part of the journey ALONE. Guess which one feels most insecure about it? SPOILER ALERT Then they live happily ever after. Enjoy the masters artistry and don't worry about it.
