On this day in 1975, Stanley Kubrick’s 'Barry Lyndon' premiered in London.

50 years later, the film remains a monumental experience, one of cinema’s most meticulously crafted achievements, a work of beauty and precision.

Adapted from William Makepeace Thackeray’s novel, ‘Barry Lyndon’ follows the rise and fall of Redmond Barry, an ambitious outsider who maneuvers his way into aristocratic society.

The candlelit scenes were filmed almost entirely by candlelight, made possible by ultra-fast Zeiss lenses developed for NASA. For the rest of the film, Kubrick combined natural light, hidden reflectors, and carefully controlled lighting to craft interiors and landscapes that look as if they were pulled straight from 18th-century paintings. The film’s obsessive attention to period detail (from costumes stitched using historical techniques to locations lit as they would have been in 1770), reached a level of authenticity that’s still incredible today.

After months of shooting across remote estates in Ireland, and a production so demanding that cast and crew joked they aged in “Kubrick years,” the result was a vision so controlled and immersive it feels like stepping into a living museum.

🏀 Five years ago today, OKC became the epicenter of sports history when the Thunder-Jazz game was postponed, leading to the NBA suspending its season after Rudy Gobert tested positive for COVID-19.

@Thirdmanmovies Her and Blethyn’s restaurant meeting in Secret and Lie’s is one of the best acted scenes ever. I haven’t got to watch HT but I can say it doesn’t sound a stretch, esp in a Leigh script.

Still, I would have been curious on all these for one to be moved out…

Still trips me out that this 33 plays in 45, like I always listen to the first couple tracks in drunk Josh Homme monster voice
