Top 5 - Stanley Kubrick Movies

Stanley Kubrick would have been 92-years old today. In his memory here are what I consider his five best movies.

1. Dr. Strangelove
2. Paths of Glory
3. A Clockwork Orange
4. Full Metal Jacket
5. The Shining

  1. Good list. Don't forget 2001. Have you seen The Killing? Excellent late noir film, good cast.

  2. Just goes to show how good a director he was - 2001 would be a masterpiece for most but it didn't even crack my Top 5 for Kubrick.

  3. Yeah, 2001 isn't everyone's cup of tea. I saw it in the theater when I was a kid, so it made a big impression on me.

  4. I saw 2001 in the mid 80's with a date at Clack U. Kept thinking "This movie is way too long. It's killing the mood." Held a grudge ever since.
