In his later life, Kubrick said, to his brother-in-law and frequent producer Jan Harlan, that he much preferred Kenneth Branagh's Henry V (1988), which he considered far superior to Olivier's 1944 adaptation.

I don’t know, I really enjoyed hearing music so associated with Kubrick - Beethoven’s 9th Symphony from A Clockwork Orange - keeping us in mind that these films were his favorites. It is so much better than hearing a narrator overlay. Kubrick was such a practitioner of holding the visual over against the verbal that the choice of this louder music makes perfectly good sense. All to say that I quite enjoyed it. In fact all the visual choices of this essayist were stellar: the very cool opening identifying animation and the introduction of the numbers into the picture were very impressive. I really enjoy this video.

I saw recently an interview to James Cameron, in which the Titanic director tells how Kubrick phoned him once to congratulate him on his movie "True Lies." Kubrick, according to Cameron, was particularly intrigued by the Harrier Jet scene, asking Cameron how had he managed to shoot that sequence with such artistry. In any case, one would assume that a list of Kubrick's all time favourite movies would include some more titles, other than these 10 great ones in this post. As an example, Kubrick mentioned movies such as Max Ophüls' "Letter from an unknown woman," Victor Erice's "The Spirit of the Beehive," Jonathan Demme's "The Silence of the Lambs," or Julio Medem's "The Red Squirrel," to name but a few, as some movies he particularly loved. Lastly, it was well known his fondness of John Huston's "The Treasure of the Sierra Madre."

Something to see the shots in Hell's Angels. There's some visual inspiration for Barry Lyndon and even in general. This is an outdated list though. The master list would have been better to use and make a video about. Even though some of the movies in that list are movies Kubrick mentioned he liked, but it's not obvious how much he liked. Perhaps there might be a big gap between his 5 or 10 favorites and some of the other titles in the list, but it is more interesting for sure.
