The Barry family were actually among the first Anglo-Norman families to arrive in Ireland, maintaining large possessions in county Cork since the reign of Henry II. The name comes from 'Barri', the French word for rampart. Their chief seat was in Castle Lyons as well as an early residence in Barryscourt. Although Bullingdon doesn't recognise it, they certainly were a branch of an illustrious family. In the second half of the 14th Century, the Anglo-Normans intermarried more extensively among the Irish, being thought of by the English as "more Irish than the Irish". So although the English introduced them into the country, they also repudiated them within three centuries! The more you know!

+Dae Dalus You are totally wrong. Kubrick was obsessed by the European Warrior caste (old pagan triad of warrior, philosopher/priest and worker). His first film was 'the boxer' documenting the life of a modern warrior type. A clockwork orange and full metal jacket also speak to Kubrick's pre-occupation with the warrior caste in modern social contexts, or, more acutely, how the current 'aristocracy' are entirely degenerate people who must subdue the healthy and vital energies of the 'organic aristocracy'. Barry Lyndon is the NATURAL aristocrat. All of his behaviours exhibit eliteness of mind, body and constitution. He is an ALPHA MALE. He is daring, brave, heroic in battle, skilled with fist and sword, desirable to women, cunning, shrewd and ambitious. His most noble feature is when he uses his power to exhibit a forgiveness which is the exclusive preserve of the strong, by firing his shot into the ground. Being that his stepson, a wretched effeminate creature, born to a sickly father far too old for his mother but wealthy, whose conception of nobility is passive aggressive melodramatic performance and bemoaning the 'low birth' of a man who in every conceivable way is a superior specimen to him (notice both father and son employ this strategy), Barry's upstanding and vital energies ultimately cause his downfall. Had he shot the boy he would have succeeded in life and done the world a favour. For a glimpse into the more esoteric elements of the film, there are THREE scenes where Barry enacts violence upon Bullingdon and in each scene he strikes him SIX times.

@lars526

8 жыл бұрын

Deep Blue Oh no, I totally agree with you. I was just being kind of humorous. He is an extremely capable man, able to pick up foreign languages and fencing quickly, easily beating the intimidating soldier in a fist fight, and so on. And although he is superior in many ways to Bullingdon and others from the higher class, he is looked down upon because he is a mere Irish peasant. He's also an emotionally sensitive person, a quality which tends to determine important paths of his life, for better or worse. Redmond Barry himself is a skilled, courteous, intelligent human, but he is so easily influenced by bad company and the vices available to aristocracy. Always on a fine line of noble gentleman and selfish scumbag. Anyway, amazingly beautiful and insightful film, and yes 666, caught that also.

This scene feels like a gut punch. Throughout the whole film it's extremely still and professional from dialogue to cinematography, then out of nowhere we get this absolute rampage mixed with the unnerving screams of the audience. What a film.

I understand the people that dislike Barry, but I don't think they have understood him and especially what Kubrick wants to portrait here. Obviously Bullingdon is more than right in his arguments, but the dwell scene shows the material both of them are made of. Redmond is a well natured man with natural odds for being ambitious, someone who has always been tricked by his environment, a treacherous cousin (and a family driven by money), a couple of bandits, a ridiculous war by royal and aristocratic ambitions in which soldiers were a sort of slaves, the automatons who held on their shoulders the power of oppressive state and its dreams of Enlightenment at the expense of the lower classes... this fist fight is symmetric to the one against the soldier that gained him the troop's respect, whereas in high society, Barry's physical courage and fearlessness (being the other side of the coin his physical furor with women, and his inclination for drinking) finally reveals incompatible with the artifice he was obliged to deploy in his social climb-up... Even the other Irishman from whom he learnt how to reach aristocrats' hearts and purse, was an example of noble friendship based on country fellowship over social divisions... Barry finally cannot hide his fiery nature and that, together with his naive ambition results lethal. As the final dwell shows, Bullingdon was really cruel, Barry had just done everything he could without much concern, or everything that circumstances allowed him, since the goal of his life was perverted from the very beginning not because of his will. It is actually when he tries to behave like the rest of aristocrats when he looks more despicable... On the other hand, Kubrick also shows how strong but how dangerous passion may be, and that venturing oneself in something against the odds can be heroical, but it may come at a too high a price. There's some stoic vision behind, I think.

I think for the first half of the film we're supposed to complete sympathy for him, as you mentioned his robbery, his life in the British army, his conscription into the Prussian army. Even when he's brash and hot headed we still like him, it's just his natural fiery personality and boyish inexperience ....It's when he's a grown man and starts to earn his living by cheating at cards and then marries a woman he doesn't love for her wealth that we begin to grow a bit more detached from him. In his defence he's probably not doing anything that the other aristocrats weren't also doing and social mobility was almost impossible back then unless you were completely ruthless. So yes the film is as much a satire of a whole rotten system rather than one rotten man.

No, I think Bullingdon was absolutely right. Everything he said was true. The problem is that Barry had worked himself up into a place where he didn't belong. He could act well enough, but he didn't have any real brains. Like his complement of the painting - "I like the artist's use of the color blue" - shows utter ignorance. He didn't care about the art at all, he just wanted to impress people to gain his Lordship; all while totally blowing Mrs. Lyndon's money. Well, because he was just an imposter, and didn't have any real brains, he didn't sense the threat looming underneath him. And that's why this scene was such an embarrassment to him, and drove all his friends away. Because, anyone really smart would have seen this coming. He thought he could just forever beat Bullingdon down and ignore him. If he had been smarter/nicer, maybe he would have seen Bullingdon as crucial part of the family, and tried to make him a man, rather than a cowering momma's boy. But, Barry's own genetics got the best of him. And the final blow - the death of his son - goes to show that his genetics were in a place that they didn't belong. His son died because he had the Irish impulsiveness and disregard for all rules (and also due to Barry giving him everything he wanted at all times, which again, shows his weakness).

Dreadful news. I hadn't heard he'd passed away. RIP.

For Kubrick fans, try this for a thematic connection. Take Eyes Wide Shut at the scene of the masked ball, where Bill Hartford is forced to reveal himself to the guests. Line up that scene with this scene. Keep these things in mind. Both scenes take place on a palatial estate. Lord Bullingdon and Red Cloak are the English lords of their manors (and btw both characters are played by Leon Vitali, Kubrick's long time assistant). The anti-hero characters are both outsiders conning their way into high society, and both are played by Irish-American actors, O'Neal and Cruise. In both scenes their ruses are blown out by the English lords. And yet there is a reversal. Lord Bullingdon crashes Barry's party, humiliates Barry before the guests, vows to go into exile, and leave his female protector to the mercies of Barry. Hartford crashes Red Cloak's party, but Red Cloak humiliates Hartford before the guests, sends him into exile, in exchange for his female protector's vow to "redeem" him, leaving her to the mercies of Red Cloak. Thanks for sharing this.

I cheered for Bullington when he decided to fire again in the duel, because his fear of Barry melted away in that moment.

Seeing the scene at the ending of the film with him watching his mom give him allowance was heartbreaking. He knows that Barry doesn’t deserve it but can’t bring himself to overrule her decision.

This scene epitomizes the pathos of the film, and perhaps Kubrick's entire film catalog. Kubrick highlights here, as with many of his other films, man at odds with society. Kubrick isn't just talking about how we interact, he's questioning our entire social foundation - What are these rules we've created for ourselves, and how much do they compromise our true emotional spirit? We see unaffected, emotionless characters throughout the movie, always keeping up an appearance of regal stoicism. It's almost too much to stomach. It's scenes like this which offer the audience a release; an instance of true emotional weight, boiling over and bared for all to see. It reminds us of the facade society has us create, the unnatural pressures of conformity, and how we're a fragile moment away from near-animal brutality. This encapsulates Kubrick's most salient point of all - the importance of individual liberty. Just think of Pyle from FMJ, Alex from ACO or Redmond Barry here. Each character's individuality and true self is suppressed to satisfy the demands of society, often to the point of being unrecognizable. It is the sacrifice of human nature for perceived safety. Kubrick seems to ask: "Is this a price worth paying?" Or, at the very least, he intends to remind us the price we've paid is a high one. I, for one, think he's right.

Just like Gomer Pyle killed the drill sergeant and himself in the novel Short-Timers which Kubrick turned into FMJ and just like whatever Alex did in the movie was a depiction of his actions in the original novel. For the most part the pathos of Kubrick's entire film catalog was the creation of pretty or intense images and the interaction between weird, alien like, characters. A sort of "epater les bourgeois" tactic to make up for his uncurable inability to combine social critique with storytelling. As for the artistic and intellectual aspect of his work, he could always count on overzealous critics and fans creating a purpose and a deliberate aim where there was none to begin with.

Definitely in my top list of films. Absolutely stunning, breath-taking and heartbreakingly beautiful visuals. Kubrick was way ahead of his time for films. The fact his films are still very much watchable to this day is a testament to his gift at making timeless and contemporary art.

The whole scene went from proper baroche cinematography to the most obscene reality-tv camera work. Quite effective I must say.

I read somewhere that Ryan O'Neal got caught up in the moment and accidently hurt Leon Vitale during this scene. They had to add more padding to Lord Bullington's costume to compensate. I also read that O'Neal and Vitale became good friends in real life.

What makes Lyndon's attack of his step son so shocking... was bc, upto this point, Kubrick masterfully rendered the rules of 18th century gentlemanly etiquette and culture. Lyndon's disgrace and shame was a 1000 fold worse (not so much because he attacked his step son), but because of his PUBLIC Violation of societal gentlemanly rules.

Amazing scene. Holds so many aspects in the spectrum from tragedy so subtile humor. And the pure beauty and feeling of authenticity is striking.

This is easily my favourite scene in the movie. The sheer brutality barry shows make it apparent that he had nothing but luck until this point. Barry was never smart or good with words or anything, he just threw is reputation and status away out of pure anger towards his step son. The amount of time it takes the "men" to react and do something is baffling. his step son finally stepping up to him in front of everything is so satisfying and berry does the songle worst thing in response. I like how berry was never outright bad, but rather self centered and sometimes, in contrast, selfless like when he saved that prussian officer, oh ... and of course when he shot the ground in the duel later. Truly a musterpiece

There is a reluctance to intervene because at that tiem in history, parents - even stepparents - had a free hand to do pretty much anything they wanted to their children. It woul dbe many years before there were any laws restricting how parents could treat or punish their children, it was called "the sanctity of the hearth". And of course they are stunned at the speech and Barry's reaction. Barry isn't entirely evil, but he's a cheat, a liar, he deliberately provokes carefully selected people into challenging him to duels which he knows they have no chance of winning,. he marries Lady Lyndon for nothing other than her name, he rmoney and gaining social position. He is horribly abusive to his stepson both mentally and physically. Pretty the only shred of decency in Barry was his love for his own son.

@@kingstarscream3807 He wanted nothing more than to join the aristocracy. He married Lady Lyndon for two specific reasons, to obtain her money and hopefully to obtain her title - though marriage alone could not do this, as the title was already automatically passed to Lady Lyndon's son, even though a child; Lord Bullingdon. Barry specifically petitioned the king to grant him the title but it was refused. Throughout his marriage Barry quite openly had affairs and spent Lady Lyndon's money with abandon, usually trying to cultivate his social standing - in fact he ran up immense debts, all of which are called after socirty turns against him after the incident shown here. So much so that it almost ruins the family fortune, Lady Lyndon is shown signing cheque after cheque as her horrified accountant goes through the bills that have suddenly be called in.

I'm trying to make up my mind about this scene. On one hand, we might see that Barry's real (lower and uncouth) nature cannot change. He has put a mask all these years to serve his egotistical purposes and he proves he simply can't fit into the society he hopes. He doesn't have a noble upbringing. And this shows at its best here. See the difference between how Bullingdon (a lord) handles the whole situation without resorting to violence. Barry has been sitting there all this time acting noble but he can't pretend any longer. His real nature emerges. This creates a whole new chain of thoughts regarding the pressure we put on ourselves to fit in somewhere and repress our true nature. On the other hand, could it be an attempt to show Barry's _human,_ passionate nature? A nature that is repressed and distorted in a conventional and rigid high-class upbringing? Perhaps both.

I don't think it's supposed to be cut and dry. Barry wouldn't be such a tragic figure if he were two dimensional. Same with the duel scene later. Barry shows compassion by not taking the shot, and your immediate reaction to Bullingdon continuing the duel is disgust. But then you remember what a piece of shit Barry has been to Bullingdon for so long, and it's hard to argue against Barry having made this bed a long time ago.

Barry was selfish, mistreated his mom, disrespected his father's legacy, and abused him for standing up for what's right. I was very happy to see Bullingdon win in the end.

No. Please. Just no.

I love how in the beginning, Barry's mother is the only person actually nodding along, enjoying the music. She may be entrenched in the aristocracy along with her son, but she still has some spirit left. Barry, next to her however, looks utterly drained of joy at this point. These actor's don't get enough credit for how well they each nailed their roles.

I find it fascinating how Kubrick decided to portray Barry as an almost honest, good-natured man facing an oppressive and narrow minded nobility. In the book he's absolutely terrible, he basically kidnaps lady Lyndon and forces her to marry him, he's constantly drunk (even before the death of his son), regularly beats his wife, and loses everything to gambling. Lady Lyndon seeks help to put an end to the marriage but he checks her correspondence and prevents her from leaving the manor. This fight doesn't take place, Bullingdon simply tells his mom those things hoping that she would do something but she's too scared so he just leaves. The final duel (where in the film Barry shows magnamity to his clumsy step-son) is also absent: friends of lady Lyndon simply decide that enough is enough and banish Barry from the country. Also, Barry is not robbed on the way to Dublin but reaches Dublin safely and squanders his money in clothes, wine, and gambling, telling lies all the time. The book is almost comical in tone, even in the last chapters, which makes all that more acceptable. It would have probably been too much for the serious film Kubrick wanted to make.

@bkisme

Great input, thank you. Kubrick has always taken a great deal of creative license when adapting works to film. While I haven't read Barry Lyndon, I have read Red Alert, which Dr. Strangelove was adapted from. In that case, Kubrick took an otherwise serious novel about the risks of nuclear war and essentially inverted the ending and added a lot more comedic frills and one-liners to make it a black humor comedy. It sounds like in the case of Barry Lyndon, he did the opposite; adapting a comedy to a serious period piece. Since pretty much all of his films are adapted from existing literary work, I'm sure there are tons of examples of this elsewhere. While I think trying to understand a director's intentions is a bit of an effort in futility generally-speaking, in the context of Barry Lyndon, we do have some context to go off of; Kubrick originally wanted to make a film about Napoleon Bonaparte, but given the commercial failure of a similar film released around that time, he pivoted to different source material from around the same time period, which ended-up being Barry Lyndon. I think Kubrick's execution of the portrayal of Barry as our "coming-of-age and fall from grace" protagonist better reflects the pacing and tone that we would have received from a more-or-less autobiographical film about Napoleon. In my personal opinion, shooting a 3-hour long film possessing some of the most groundbreaking cinematography captured on celluloid, and having the subject matter be... a perpetual drunk... would be... a strange choice. No matter the underlying reasons for Kubrick's creative license, I'll take it.

This was shot in the picture gallery at Corsham Court, Wiltshire. I live just around the corner, and it looks exactly the same today! (minus the music and extras of course!)

La increíble capacidad de kubrick de entregarnos estas escenas, cargadas de barroco, de oleos extraordinarios en un montaje cinematográfico. Adoro esta película, la he visto 10 veces, y siempre encuentro nuevos detalles, y nunca me aburro. :)

No wigs were harmed during the filming of this sequence.

Can't be more Kubrick than this

I only watched this film 7 times, entirely.

Kubrick meticulously researched the time periods for all his movies. I love the realistic punching sounds. Irl Ryan O'Neal was barely touching his face. He was such a good actor.

2:14 "And enjoy all the benefits of the illustrious blood of the Barrys of Barryville." By our standards, Bullingdon is an atrocious snob which makes him so dislikeable. Yet, he is the victim of an opportunist gold digging and brutal stepfather. Everything he says about Redmond is correct, but he's so obnoxious and snobby in doing so that one feels very little sympathy for him. (Bullingdon truly believes that his "lineage" alone makes him to superior to others. Today, that's appalling, but in 18th century England that was as natural to someone like Bullingdon as breathing.)

The great Leon Vitali
