Yeah, really. I wouldn't have been able to imagine anyone making this film look boring - but somehow they managed it.

Oh, if you liked "Ran," you'll love this film!
Though of course it is very different.

Breathtakingly Beautiful, my fave Kubrick too...could a film be any better?

I wish Kubrick had been able to make that biopic he titled NAPOLEON. It woulda been a fucking huge epic that detailed Bonaparte's life from toddler to trapped on Elba until his death.
Jack Nicholson impressed Kubrick with his performance in Easy Rider, and he was the first choice for the role. It was to be his next film after 2001, but he had trouble with getting investors and did Clockwork Orange. He got military men to be extras in the battle scenes, but the studio said it was too costly
