...silence to make the same point. "People like Barry are successful because they are not obvious-they don't announce themselves," says Kubrick. So it is mainly by the look in Ryan O'Neal's eyes-a sharp glint when he spies the main chance, a gaze of hurt befuddlement when things go awry-that we understand Barry's motives.
