@Sarunas626 @Tico_Romao Agreed, one of Kubrick’s best films..

@bja_samuel @Tico_Romao This film is like a painting. Beautifully shot and lit.

Barry Lyndon (1975) Dir Stanley Kubrick "Lady Lyndon was soon destined to occupy a place in Barry's life, not very much more important than the elegant carpets and pictures which would form the pleasant background of his existence." #FilmTwitter #Film #StanleyKubrick

@MrJoeGillis Indeed, easily one of his best films..

@bja_samuel An exquisite picture which required a few viewings for me to truly appreciate its artistic merits. Kubrick’s most underrated great work.
