Never seen any of those, except A Clockwork Orange which in my mind is one of Kubrick's weakest (*ducks for cover).

Really, well you have some movie watching to do. You will enjoy those three movies that you haven't seen. "A Clockwork Orange" being his worst, blasphemy.. oh well, to each their own my friend.

one of my fav's
If you'd like it for a Movie of the Week, just let me or LV72 know. I was thinking about doing it anyway, but have a bunch of requests before I get to some of the stuff I'd like to do.

I just saw the first half of this flick and i'm awestruck by the insight into the present day they had in the 70's- it's damn scary
btw, this is a good thread
wow girl....it has been a couple years.
one film that people have forgotten and hasn't been mentioned is Terence Malick's "Badlands". I love that movie. Some might find it boring, I know, but for some stupied resason I find it as "Bonnie and Clyde's" great sequel. Good stuff.
