In spite of VK's warnings and my distaste for C & K, I rented this recently just to see what Kubrick was up to.Well, I should have trusted my fellow inmates.
The only amusing thing in the entire movie was Kubrick's use of color. I had recently see Hitchcock's "Vertigo" (for about the 11th time) and was facinated by the master's use of color. I wonder if Kubrick was paying homage to Hitch -- the similarities were awfully close to be coincidental.
Or perhaps Kubrick just hated Cruse and Kidman as much as we do?
Such great directors can't be dismissed so easily. There's always something for those who care enough to look.

Thank you, petew, this is precious. Now, if we could only get your political views as correct...
Well, at least I could have really fallen asleep and been snoring though it comfortably at home. We paid nearly $8 a piece for the abuse and the only exciting part was the girls wearing just masks.Try the Green Mile if you haven't seen it. This is a 2 video deal that will keep you glued to the screen. Tom Hanks returns as Forest Gump, the jailer. And the biggest, baddest, black dude you've ever seen is.......naw, I can't spoil it. I didn't know that it was a Stephen King story and it's a great one.
"Green Mile"? Now there's a fine film. Thanks for putting things in perspective, Rod.
