i get that ryan o'neal wasn't the most scorsesean actor and i've had this discussion with demonrail before but sometimes a weak actor fits the part like a glove
since barry lyndon is about how a naive boy can bite more than he can chew (same as tom cruise in traumnovelle... eyes wide shut) it fits well
and besides, kubrick was always GREAT with the music
barry lyndon was the first time i heard the schubert piano trio that punctuates the whole film (is it the whole film? i forget)
