That opinion is RIDICULOUS. In the sense of deserving and inspiring
ridicule.
BARRY LYNDON is a wonderful film. Deliberate doesn't always mean
slow. Gorgeous
it is, and there is no better self-evident example of the moralism
that Kubrick represented.
I first saw it on Christmas night, 1975 at the Wilshire Theater in
Dallas, Texas. The folks
from Warners had been there to tune their system to perfection for the
Dallas market.
Thanks to a generous friend of a member of this list, who worked with
Kubrick, I was
able to have him sign a one sheet for the film for me.

I was just reading Bruce's latest club email, and I was appalled to
learn that Barry Lyndon was voted Kubrick's worst film. That is a
great movie!!! What is the world coming to??!!!
