Today i watched '2001: a space odyssey' by Stanley Kubrick for the first time with hbo. It was a breathtaking and surprisingly disturbing yet beautiful experience! I went into this with high expectations and a dad in the background telling me all the different pretty elements i had to notice. Im happy to say that this peice of cinema exceeded every last one of those high expectations i had (i had them mainly because of all the film bros). I think the next Kubrick thing il watch is gonna be full metal jacket so fingers crossed its gonna be as good as this masterpiece.

If you can ignore the big amount of idolization a mentaly unstable person who drives a taxi gets its great movie! I love Robert de niro, i love martin Scorsese, i love jazz and i love character driven films.

Barry Lyndon 1975
I though that a slow paced 3 hours long historical drama would be dead boring. I WAS ABSOLUTELY WRONG! never did i think it would be this fascinating. I really loved it. It was my second Kubrick movie and now im definetly gonna watch more by him!
