Not a Stanley Kubrick fan. I think he’s an overrated director. I’m a fan of “Spartacus” but the word is Kirk Douglas had a big hand in directing it. Could be why I like it.

I wonder if that was also the case with "Paths of Glory".

My most hated Kubrick film?

2001. A Space Odyssey.

It was a box office bomb when released. Only grew in time as a cult classic.

I find it as 2 1/2 hours of boring dialogue
