      It looks comfortable

      Barry Lyndon is Kubrick's closing film, and it's a film with a peaceful and delicate plot. The story itself does not have very intense conflicts, nor does it have a unique and novel setting. It is about how a poor boy from a slum, how to become a high-class person, and after reaching the peak of...

      The legendary f0.7 lens, the legendary full natural light candlelight, from the beginning to the end, the center composition, scheduling, editing, and promotion are meticulous and dull, all the way to the performance of the soundtrack and the standard two-stage structure.

    Barry Lyndon quotes

    • Narrator: [voice-over] Five years in the English and Prussian army, and some considerable experience of traveling the world, had by now dispelled any of those romantic notions regarding love with which Barry commenced life. And he began to have it in mind, as so many gentlemen had done before him, to marry a woman of great fortune and condition. And, as such things so often happen, these thoughts closely coincided with his setting first sight upon a lady who will henceforth play a considerable part in the drama of his life: the Countess of Lyndon, Viscountess Bullingdon of England, Baroness of Castle Lyndon of the Kingdom of Ireland, a woman of vast wealth and great beauty. She was the wife of The Right Honorable Sir Charles Reginald Lyndon, Knight of the Bath, and Minister to George III at several of the smaller Courts of Europe, a cripple, wheeled about in a chair, worn out by gout and a myriad of other diseases. Her Ladyship's Chaplain, Mr. Runt, acted in the capacity of tutor to her son, the little Viscount Bullingdon, a melancholy little boy, much attached to his mother.

    • Narrator: [voice-over] It would require a great philosopher and historian to explain the causes of the famous Seven Years' War in which Europe was engaged and in which Barry's regiment was now on its way to take part. Let it suffice to say, that England and Prussia were allies and at war against the French, the Swedes, the Russians and the Austrians.
