Hey! Nine dollers and free shipping too, not bad.

Amazing prices!

Thanks!

Arsinic and Old Lace is my favorite Cary Grant film. Funniest movie ever made.

You bet! I love that film too. Can't find it on DVD anywhere so I will have my tapes out tonight for this and Wuthering Heights.

I have never cared for any other art form except for film and music, I have never cared for painting or books. I think that film is more like music. I like moving pictures and sound and the look of film. There is a reason why they call it motion pictures, It has to move and it has to have a feel, lighting and movement and music is what I love the most.

I love On the Waterfront, much better than The Godfather if you ask me. A superb piece of acting and direction.

No, I guss I am not good at comunicating my views on film or my views on anything for that matter. No need for me to express it futher because you may not understand me.

I prefer film because they rely on images not words and that's why I don't like books that much unless if it's a book on film. I am also not that good with words anyway.

Yeah, I can see why you have no idea what I am talking about. I tend to look at films differently than most people. A lot of people have no idea what I am talking about when I talk about Kubrick's look and how it was ahead of its time and how its not as 70s as the look of The Godfather is, no offence.

Yes, the look of Spartacus is different from A Clockwork Orang or Dr. Strangelove or The Shining but that was before Kubrick found his style, that was back when he was still learning and Lolita was when he found his true style and that's why Kubrick's films before 1962 bore me, he was still learning how to make movies I guss and Spartacus is not that good of a film, even Kubrick hated it.

I think that the look of The Godfather is too 70s like, no offence but I prefer the dark and unearthly look of Stanley Kubrick's films. His look was ahead of it's time and it has kind of been used in films like Rocky, Halloween, and most of the films from the 90s like Fargo and Baz Lahurman's Romeo & Juliet, even Men in Black kind of took Kubrick's look if you look at it closer.

Is City Lights on DVD at all? If not than I will put that on my DVD wishlist.

Nice words and while I love movies because of the images more than the meaning or the theme, I like your what you have to say.

I don't mean to insult the movie in any way because I don't hate the movie but I will kindly ask you what you found so different about it, I am not insulting the movie I just want to know.

I did not like A Clockwork Orange the first time I saw it either but Stanley Kubrick's films have to grow on you I guss. I think that people take that movie very seriouslly and they forget that it's a comdey. This guy has done so much harm to people and in the end he does not have to pay for it, I thought that it was a scary idea but done in a very funny way.

I did not care for Men in Black 2 but I love the first one and while I don't think that The Godfatehr is the worst movie ever made, I guss I could do the opposite.

I read that review on 2001 and I like Ebert's words.

Please do post some links. I would love to read them and I do agree with you about The Godfather.

Anyway, most critics say wonderful things about The Godfather and while I don't hate that movie or anything like that, I just did not care for it. Did you hear any good things about any of Stanley Kubrick's movies? I have actually read a couble of reviews of his movies in the past. I don't remember who those critics were but they always said that his movies were boring and cold and while I could see why they would think that, I think that's not true. Everyone hated Men in Black but I loved it. Message was edited by: Kubrickbuff

I am sure that you are right.

I am excited about seeing this movie and The Little Foxes.

Every single film fan that I have ever met. Maybe I am talking more about people that I have met rather than film critics because like I said, I don't read reviews.

Don't read reviews. People said that Stanley Kubrick's films were bad and he is now my idol. People said Fargo was bad and I really loved it, people said Adaptation and City of Angels was bad and I really love those movies, people said that The French Connection and The Godfather were great films and I didn't like them, people even told me that Meet John Doe was bad, what? A Frank Capra movie is considered bad? He was one of the best storytellers we ever had. Message was edited by: Kubrickbuff

I will admit, I do love watching his interviews, he seems like a really nice guy and I love to hear his views on film, I have nothing against Marty I just don't care for his films, except for Taxi Driver. I am not into gangster movies.
