Directors Stanley Kubrick vs. the HTF - a tournament (2 Viewers)

[Rain]

I'm not sure what I was thinking when I voted. I actually do like The Third Man more....

Not that it would have changed the outcome any, just thought I would point that out.

Great Tourney!!!

"I rule!"

He sure does!!

Thanks for the tournament, Steve

Thanks Steve for a fun tourney. Not surprisingly, my voting was very Kubrick friendly ( He does indeed rule. )

Of 18 votes -

13 Kubrick
4 nominated films for the tournament
1 abstain

In any final showdown my vote would be for 2001: A Space Odyssey. I am decidedly one of the acolytes who worships at the altar of this film. Nearly of Briggsian proportions.

- Walter.

Agreed.

Thanks guys!

I admire it a great deal as well. However, when two films (such as Dr. Strangelove and The Third Man) are so darn near-perfect, I default to the one I enjoy more. In other words, I'd go with Harry Lime over the bomb.


I'm thinking about doing a Hitchcock vs. the HTF tourney next. We should be able to take down the master of suspense. He didn't do anything THAT great anyway.
