My brother Frank, and his high school football teammates visited the Rock Pile in country at the Tet Offensive in 1968', after seeing them at Camp Pendleton in boot camp, I know "why they all" stayed alive!
When I compare "Full Metal Jacket" with "Paths of Glory", their simply is no comparison. Kubrick was great, but by FMJ, he really was just a guy whose best days were behind him. Resting on his laurels. "Eyes Wide Shut", his last film was horrible. I can still watch PofG over and over again, but none of his later stuff is worth seeing twice.
@fliegeroh Eyes Wide Shut is a work of subtle genius rather than the overt genius which he displayed in earlier films and I find it more rewarding on each viewing. The use of music and visuals that Kubrick is famous for is only bettered by Barry Lyndon compared to EWS, in my opinion
Maybe kubrick was pre-ordained for greatness.What are the odds you would find a set,that no studio could replicate for 40 million dollars?Not only that,but the guy who built the gasworks,ALSO built buildings in hue city?!!I Ive looked at alot of photos of hue 1968,and some shots from this movie look just like it.But kubrick added more,with alot of smoke and fire,that we're strategically placed,to make it more visually strong.
Lee was a prop.....The most God Damn perfect Prop that can help write half a movie. Stanley was so brilliant he let the movie write itself...patient enough to...whew.
Overdid it in Clock W.O ? I'll say...that movie came out and scarred me as a teenager. lol.
Kubrick took all those people and was patient enough to wait for their best...so they all win.
@lizzylizardson Uhh, what? No, Einstein, I watched the movie. And I understood it. Read the comment again. I said it's one of my favorite movies and R. Lee portrays some of the real life stress and ass chewings Marine D.I.'s dish out. Stanley Kubrick had many messages in this movie, maybe you should see it sometime.
Incredible, as a Marine this has always been one of, if not my favorite movie. I couldn't imagine this movie without R. Lee .... Drill Instructors do have an endless amount of funny shit to cap on recruits, but Ermey is hillarious...lolol ...too funny!!
"Most people would not believe this film was done in East London". Well I for one agree. Can't believe that this great movie was all done there. Flying in palm trees and using the site that was going to be destroyed anyway. A stroke of luck and genius. Incredible is an understatement. And R. Lee Ermey, what can I say.. made the movie.
@fw190bk1 I was living in London at the time. I remember one shot shown on the news at the time which showed a battle scene with a commuter train in the background.
Until I saw this documentary I did not understand why it was filmed in London.
i always thought that if Gunnery Sergeant Hartman had succeeded in taking the gun off Private Pyle in the toilet scene, Hartman would of apologised to Pyle for being such a hardnut asshole.
@neilandrewporter This is the one scene I cannot buy. I find it hard to believe Joker would have gone through the entire formal way of speaking to warn Hartmann. I think a simple 'his magazine is loaded' was more appropriate.
Kubrick a master, a genius , you can watch a film of his 10- 20 times and you'll see something new everytimeHe was that good that warner bros said it doesn't matter about time or money, you finish it when you finish it,they knew the film would make money because it had his name behind it.
Nice Video. If you need any help getting your video/channel exposed I use a site called Tubeviews . Net They have helped like 5 of my videos get ranked on the first pages.

Kubrik felt that he's overdone violence in Clockwork Orange? Wow, I always thought the same thing, couldn't agree more with kubrik on that.

Without Ermey the movie would not be a movie for all times. He made the movie.

Not seeing the footage who knows how it would work,but that alternate ending sounds awkward and out of tone.
