Folks,

Sorry this was posted multiple times -- a problem on my end. Apologies.

IIRC, the voice-over was imposed on the film by the studio, against Kubrick's wishes, as the studio bosses felt the film would be too confusing otherwise.

Stephen,

Thanks for the info. I know a lot of the film's action is meant to take place at the same time, so I guess the voice-over is supposed to keep us straight. The studio -- as you say -- thought our attention would wander. Funny, they did the same thing with Blade Runner . . .
