Please remember to vote for as many Kubrick films as possible.... if, you've seen them all, then go and vote for all of then!!!!!! Barry Lyndon is so close, and is my pet-peeve here. OK? Remember, you can only vote once for each film. The only exception is if, say, you voted "8" on BL, and now have a change of heart upon re-viewing it, you can then decide to change your vote to "10" - this way your score is now "10" for BL, AND NOT "8". Other than that, it is not a "vote & vote often" type-of-system. Just a thought here? OK?

Go VOTE, please...
