Here's a quick post I've been meaning to do for a while. Not really apropos of anything in particular except that I've been wanting to rewatch EYES WIDE SHUT(which I don't think I've seen since it's theatrical run). As with My Favorite Hitchock Films, the order here is always in flux. This is just how I feel right now.
1. THE KILLING.
2. DR. STRANGELOVE.
3. THE SHINING.
4. 2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY.
5. FULL METAL JACKET.
6. BARRY LYNDON.
7. A CLOCKWORK ORANGE.
8. PATHS OF GLORY.
9. EYES WIDE SHUT.
10. LOLITA.
11. SPARTACUS.
12. KILLER'S KISS.

wow we're nearly direct inverses.
mine would be:
1 BARRY LYNDON
2 A CLOCKWORK ORANGE
3 2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY
4 FULL METAL JACKET
5 EYES WIDE SHUT
6 THE SHINING
7 PATHS OF GLORY
8 SPARTACUS
9 THE KILLING
10 LOLITA
11 KILLER'S KISS
12 DR STRANGELOVE
Fair enough, cool to see the BARRY LYNDON love. That's one of his that I feel is unjustly overlooked. Not a STRANGELOVE fan huh? I guess it was like the second film of his I saw(After CLOCKWORK) so it really hooked me.
Hmmm, let me try this one:
1. Full Metal Jacket
2. The Shining
3. Lolita
4. 2001: A Space Odyssey
5. Spartacus
6. Barry Lyndon
7. A Clockwork Orange
I haven't seen the others so I don't think it's fair to judge them yet. And Barry Lyndon I haven't seen since it's original release- at which I fell asleep while watching! In a couple days I am going to a screening of it at The L.A. Cinematheque
to see it again since I think I was too young to appreciate it back then. So I have a feeling it may rise in the ranks post viewing.
