An Irish rogue wins the heart of a rich widow and assumes her dead husband's aristocratic position in 18th-century England.
Barry Lyndon is presented in the film’s photographed aspect ratio of 1.66:1, as specified in a December 8, 1975, letter from director Stanley Kubrick to projectionists. This new 4K restoration was sourced from a 4K scan of the 35mm original camera negative. The high-definition transfer, created in 2000 under the supervision of Leon Vitali (Kubrick’s personal assistant), served as a color reference for this restoration. The 5.1 surround audio mix was created from restored original soundtrack stems.
