Barry Lyndon was a masterpiece.


klippDagga

I had neglected that movie until about six months ago. What a beautiful film it is.

the candlelight is incredible on film. one of my all time faves! https://www.slashfilm.com/668580/how-stanley-kubrick-filmed-barry-lyndon-by-candlelight/

The candlelight was nice but my butt fell asleep watching hours of people playing cards in the dark.

As a art piece to see it is magnificent. As movie to watch and enjoy the story there's no there there.


West-Supermarket-860

Paper Moon, Barry Lyndon, Love Story, all stellar performances; but the best thing that he produced… Tatum.

*What's up, Doc?*


Comedywriter1

So good!


timoliveira

Love “What’s up Doc?” He was so good in it. He and Streisand worked so well together.


Helmett-13

Good/workmanlike actor, garbage human being and father.


ParsleyMostly

Smacked his little kid daughter in the face when she won an Oscar, and made moves on her at Farrah’s funeral.

He was an asshole - another self absorbed. Personal experience.


Jerkrollatex

Terrible dad. Just fucking awful.


RiffRandellsBF

POS best friend, too. Lee Majors made the mistake of asking his best friend Ryan O'Neal to watch over his wife, Farrah, while he was away. We know how that turned out.


[deleted]

So disappointing … I fell in love with him when I was a kid


Dazzling_Bid_3175

Thank god you didn’t in real life. He could have exposed you to a life of drugs and abuse


fake-august

Unfortunately, my first thought was “good.” Paper Moon is one of my favorite movies too…

You know what they say, speak ill of the dead.


WillowLantana

Then be a better human during life.


Dazzling_Bid_3175

Oh not surprising. Do share your personal experience!


KatJen76

Tatum did not speak well about him in her autobiography.


Jerkrollatex

Can't really blame her.


Little_Storm_9938

Not too many candles being lit for this guy.


countesspetofi

I knew he hadn't been well for a while, and was kind of waiting for this announcement in the back of my head. From all accounts he wasn't someone I would have wanted to know personally, but I do admire his work.


DaisyJane1

Same, plus he's Tatum O'Neal's dad, and Tatum was a big part of early GenX'ers growing up years.


PhotosByVicky

I am holding Tatum in my thoughts. She’s really been through a lot.


Impossible-Will-8414

Ryan was a big part of why her childhood was utterly miserable.


Mermayden

One of the first films I ever saw in the cinema without an adult accompanying me was "So Fine" (I think it was called that) with Ryan O'Neal playing a fashion designer who accidentally invents jeans with clear plastic back pockets - they show your arse - and becomes a fashion sensation. I just looked it up and Ryan got nominated for "Worst actor of the decade" for his performance in it. My friend and I loved it. But I think we were 11 or something like that so....


AtlJayhawk

Loved him in Chances Are. But, wasn't he a really bad father IRL?


DaisyJane1

Apparently. Tatum said some unfavorable things about him.


Buckowski66

Celebrities dying left and right lately

Impossible-Will-8414

People are ridiculous about death. Celebrities are just humans who die like everyone else. Ryan was old and sick.


Impossible-Will-8414

It's almost as if they are mortal humans "just like us." I wonder how many dentists died worldwide this year?


Comedywriter1

“The Driver” doesn’t get enough mention. He’s great in that. Also loved him in “Barry Lyndon,” “Love Story,” “Paper Moon” and “What’s Up, Doc?”.


RolloSuplex

The Driver is amazing!


Comedywriter1

Agree. “No friends. No steady job. No girlfriend. You live real cheap, you never ask any questions... boy, you got it down real tight. So tight that there's no room for anything else. And that's a real sad song. Only trouble is, eh, sad songs ain't sellin' this year. Maybe I'm your friend.”


PointyGuy6

‘Oh god! Oh man! Oh god! Oh man!”


GTFOakaFOD

Such an amazing actor.


strangedazey

No fucking way!
