What did Kubrick know about women?

Rating: 7/10 (9 April 2000)

I agree with Spielberg's comment on the DVD about Kubrick's attention to detail. What I am less confident about is the older Kubrick's attention to the forest which he makes with his trees.
Perhaps I am wrong in caring whether very many women would utter the last line in the film after a comparable experience. Maybe it is enough to ask whether this woman would say the line, and whether this woman is complete and coherent.
Since I have a problem understanding the motivation of the man, maybe the movie did not hit me hard.
It's very handsome. The DVD I saw cuts almost all of the theater film's opening scene of the naked woman putting on earrings. If I wore earrings I think I would put them on after I dressed, not before, as I do my only jewelry: my watch and my eyeglasses
