Barry Lyndon DVD

How does a young Irishman without a future become part of the English aristocracy in the 18th century? Barry Lyndon (Ryan O'Neil) has a simple answer: by any means possible! Barry is an eager suitor, a duelist, a ne'er-do-well, a soldier in the Seven Years' War, a rogue, a spy, and a fake card player – these are his stops on the way up to wealth and status in this lavish film adaptation of William Makepeace Thackeray's novel directed by Stanley Kubrick.
