Full Metal Jacket

So in starting my Stanley Kubrick movie escapade, I decided to start with Full Metal Jacket. The film is one of a kind, and surprisingly contains many famous movie quotes that left me saying "that's where that came from!". One of my personal favorites was "me so horny, me love you long time!". Classic. As far as storytelling goes, Kubrick is a god, as Full Metal Jacket is not only a compelling war story with intense action, but a linear story line unlike most Kubrick films. Each shot was incredibly beautiful and could be a painting in my opinion. I'm excited to see the multitude of other Kubrick films.
