Movie starts tonight at the Odeon Barry Lyndon could be the greatest historical film ever made by Terry Dupuis among the critics as Kubrick's _ exquisite Kubrick creates in his "Barry Lyndon is a work the movie-going public, I "'artistic" or whatever responses, Ill print the three evenings,at the Pen Live Here Anymore Stanley Kubrick is one anythingelseKubrickhas photographic style is film.

Barry Lyndon ha its share of critical detractors, but I count myself among its admirers, along with Clyde Gilmour, William K. Everson, Clive Denton and many other critics and unpredictable filmmakers of our time. He is probably the most painstaking craftsman the cinema has ever seen. Naturally his output has been small, since he 's is several years on film project. In' 20 vedly won an Academy Awrd. To take just one example of Kubrick's innovations for this film: Barry Lyndon takes place in an age in which the main source of indoor lighting was candles. So for his film Kubrick stating what you liked or didn't like about the film, what you thought of the acting, photography, plot. etc. If I receive enough music in Barry Lyndon.

Barry ~Lyndon opens tonight at the Oden Theatre in Midland, where it is scheduled to run for one week. Due to the film's length, there Paths of Glory (1957) is one of the finest in- dictments of war ever produced. Spartacus (1960) holds up as one of the most intelligent of all the big screen spectacles. Lolita (1962), a rather strange comedy, seemed to me to be something of a misfire on Kubrick's part, but it too has its defen- 'ders. But Kubrick's next project, Dr. Strangelove (1964) was a_ biting satirical comedy on the nuclear age and was one achievement to date, it is also the best historical film ever made and one of the major artistic triumphs in the history of the movies. Never before have I seen a movie which so completely and _ vividly recreates a previous century. Barry Lyndon carries us back totally to the 18th Century, in recounting the fortunes of an Trish rogue and gambler who cheats and schemes his way into the necessary and has often made a lot of historical films seem phony. The costumes and sets in Barry Lyndon also won Academy Awards and they help to contribute greatly to the authenticity of the atmosphere which movie won its' fourth Academy Award for its striking musical adap- tations.

Everson, the noted film critic and historian, commented in the February edition of "Films in Review": MIDLAND ix DRIVE-IN THEATRE IT'S COMING YOUR WAY TORONTO BY BUS he has directed only who consider Kubrick's developed a special lens del, Schubert and Mozart will be only one per- me their letters directly - Pmovies.
