Ditto for Clockwork Orange, but both do have moments when Kubrick's genius accidentally slips through.

Hmm, i dunno...I was about 17 when I first saw it.
Although we did do some interesting critical theory gubbins on The Shining during my film studies MA, so I guess this has probably heightened my appreciation somewhat.

for e.g., It's nice how subtly Kubrick builds a sense of foreboding into it by shooting so many scenes from a relatively low angle - it both shrinks you and limits your field of vision, making you feel vulnerable as a viewer without really noticing why. (The over-the-shoulder tracking shots of the kid on the trike are a good example.)

Thus endeth today's b3ta school.

edit: oh, i see what you mean - as in, when you see out of the windows etc, it isn't actually there until the climactic final scenes?

hehe, yes, silly Stan. pobody's nerfect, i guess...

too expensive or summat
