  Ryan O'Neal as Barry Lyndon sucked BIG TIME!...The guy can not do drama....he can hold his own in comedy but drama is not his forte...

    where he "does drama" rather convincingly; a film with Bruce Dern and Isabelle Adjani
    Very sparse dialog and the best car chases on film bar none
    I thought he was an appalling miscast for Barry Lyndon tho'; just don't know how Kubrick could have done that
    Richard Chamberlain (Ken Russels;The Music Lovers) would have been my choice for that role

      I don't agree he was miscast - I think that was a masterstroke by Kubrick. Ryan had right texture to make the role believable, and apparently Kubrick kept him under tight control, not asking to deliver more than Ryan could, so the overall result is very awarding and his dumbness shows just the right amount... I think.

      Kunrick chose him for his Irish looks and his ability to affect the "lilt" of the language, something I think he does effectively.

      We had a lively movie discussion last night, several friends are hard core buffs. Going to see "Since Otar Left" in an hour - they say it is wonderful... have you seen it?

          Full of humanity, made for humans by humans, not robots. Incredible episode with Georgian music.

          I think you will love it.
