Notes: I haven't seen this one yet...

Notes: Among all the masterpieces Stanley Kubrick has made throughout his prestigious career, this flick doesn't seem to get much love but I do believe that it is actually rather underrated.

Anyway, there was here some flawless directing, the acting was great and the story was just spellbinding to watch.

It probably had to do with the fact that I’m not a huge fan of musicals in general but Bob Fosse is one director who was really able to flawlessly combine musical numbe” read more
