60 of 255 · most liked firstThere’s a moment in the classic film “Paths of Glory” in which an artillery officer, told to commit a war crime, asks for the order in writing. That is happening right now, in real life, among US troops in the Carribbean. Except in the movie, the demand kept the crime from happening.

neutral · AI labelView post →There's a Stanley Kubrick movie about this that takes place in WWI called Paths of Glory. It's really haunting. Russia's morality is back in the 1910s.

Sadly identifiable & relevant, playing politics with human life isn't a bug in the military industrial complex, it's a feature. #filmsky 📽 Criterion Collection 538

I'll be lucky to do a double bill of that quality again... Personally thought Peeping Tom was objectively good but the body of the film didn't quite match the very strong opening
positive · AI labelView post →I saw “Paths of Glory” on German television when I was nine or ten years old. An incredible experience. This movie made me think about war, politics and not least about movies and art. My first film book, which I bought when I was 14, was about Stanley Kubrick...
positive · AI labelView post →#NowWatching PATHS OF GLORY (1957). Director: Stanley Kubrick. Kirk Douglas, Ralph Meeker. Kubrick's anti-war classic is, perhaps, more relevant than ever. What if power-hungry, inhuman, delusional hypocrites were in charge of War Department? Oh, wait.... #filmsky 📽 Criterion Collection 538

neutral · AI labelView post →All Quiet on the Western Front is absolutely still a masterpiece. I hate the assertion that Paths of Glory was somehow the first film to show you what WWI warfare was really like... Even The Big Parade helped to do that before All Quiet... 😑 #CarlLaemmle #TCMParty
neutral · AI labelView post →alway so much talk about Kubrick but never PATHS OF GLORY. Indisputably his greatest movie.
positive · AI labelView post →Got my Kubrick set and looks like none of the discs were scratched as has been reported by others. Put on Paths of Glory since I haven’t seen it in a decade and I want to sit down so many filmmakers rn and show them this to see that you don’t have to do a talky movie as just medium close ups

neutral · AI labelView post →Paths of Glory is a great movie.
positive · AI labelView post →If I'm not mistaken, the movie on the drive-in screen in this clip from the 1958 movie Lonelyhearts is Stanley Kubrick's 1957 classic, Paths of Glory. Incidents of this sort of film-in-film shot using a real movie were fairly uncommon (but not unknown, of course) in Hollywood as far as I know.

positive · AI labelView post →I've long thought that Ridley Scott's first Gladiator film seemed to replicate shots from Leni Riefenstahl's Triumph of the Will and other movies. So I made split screens to compare them. First, Gladiator and Stanley Kubrick's Paths of Glory. youtu.be/JH64LKyZ_Dw

neutral · AI labelView post →Hot take: #PathsOfGlory is a better movie than Full Metal Jacket. I love Kubrick. But Full Metal Jacket loses me when it gets out of basic training. Paths of Glory is riveting from start to finish and asks really tough questions about war and brings home the horrors of combat. #TCMParty

neutral · AI labelView post →Time is a funny thing. Tom Cruise is still a major movie star; he starred in a film by Stanley Kubrick (Eyes Wide Shut); Kubrick made a movie that co-starred Adolphe Menjou (Paths of Glory), who starred in a film directed by D.W Griffith (The Sorrows of Satan). Griffith.... well you know who he is.

Some new movies many times (SINNERS, Mickey 17, Superman, etc), some '24 releases (Nosferatu, A Real Pain, etc), many old movies (Thief, Paths of Glory, etc). 53 trips to DAH MOOVEESSH in 48 weeks.

neutral · AI labelView post →Great discussion by the @warmovietheatre.bsky.social crew about one of my favorite genre mixes — war and noir. Attack! is hard-boiled combat drama with a fantastic cast, unsung and ahead of its time. Nice counterpart to another fave, Kubrick's Paths of Glory. Get the podcast, see the movie. #noir

neutral · AI labelView post →Have you seen "Paths of Glory?" Probably the best anti-war movie ever made. Kubrick had a very definite point of view when it came to war and the military.
neutral · AI labelView post →Please clap: I flipped over to Turner a few minutes into Paths of Glory and managed to switch away after two or three scenes because I really need some sleep tonight. (Greatest anti-war movie ever? Greatest movie ever? 3rd-greatest Kubrick anti-war movie? Somewhere in there!)
positive · AI labelView post →Paths Of Glory was Stanley Kubrick's fifth film. Five of just thirteen. It's been done in several episodes of The Clone Wars. It's about the absurdity of war as encapsulated by the delusional attitude of the leaders & how the people at the bottom always get screwed. It's so very relevant today.
positive · AI labelView post →Listen, I love Barry Lyndon and Paths of Glory, but Dr Strangelove is his best film. I don’t care what anyone says.

positive · AI labelView post →I bought this book and found it was like reading a book you'd already read before. That it, so profoundly correct that it seems like a cliche. It was like watching the portrayal of generals in every movie that's a variation on Paths of Glory.

neutral · AI labelView post →Paths of Glory is a great movie. Maybe my favorite Kubrick. The first half is a battle, the second half is about the political aftermath within the military. It’s explicitly political and not at all the normal politics of a war film.
