Now that I finished watching the Harry Potter movies, my next “movie cycle” will be to see the movies of acclaimed director Stanley Kubrick. I already saw almost all of his movies already, but not in sequence like that, so that will be interesting to see his directorial progression.

The only movie of his I haven’t seen, apart from a few unimportant early movies in his career, is “The Killing”. I won’t have to hunt down this DVD though, because it is both available on Netflix and iTunes. For the rest, I have the original DVD box set of Kubrick’s movies from Lolita to Eyes Wide Shut, and I got separately the DVDs of Paths of Glory and Spartacus, so I’m all set.

In addition, I’ve never read Kubrick’s script of Napoleon, a movie that may have been too ambitious even for him. On the blog of The Mystery Man on Film there is also an insightful series of articles about Napoleon that too will read as if that was some kind of commentary track on a movie never made.

Now, I am currently more busy than usual, so it could take a few months to go through all the movies.
