Sexy as hell!!!

Reviewed in the United States on April 12, 2024

Cinematic mastermind Stanley Kubrick's final and to me best film. Tom Cruise is brilliant and Nicole Kidman is absolutely flawless and heartstoppingly hot in this bizarre turn of super sexy parties of the elite and the sexual jealousy that can stay in your head and devour your life into sexual lust and endless pleasures of the flesh to no end and what seems retaliatory is sometimes just pure pleasure.

Stanley Kubrick's Last Judgment

Reviewed in the United States on January 10, 2005

Verified Purchase

Stanley Kubrick spent the last years of his life working on this film. And by the time Eyes Wide Shut went into general release in the United States, the director was already deceased, giving his final project the cachet of a farewell gesture-or perhaps a Last Judgment, since the Dies Irae from the Mozart Requiem can be heard at one point on the soundtrack. Yet its long awaited appearance turned out to be something of an anticlimax when most of the pre-release gossip turned out to be unjustified. No dazzling spectacle in the vein of 2001: A Space Odyssey nor even A Clockwork Orange, Eyes Wide Shut (made available here as part of Warner Home Video's excellent set of Kubrick's films) was first of all a fable for the approaching millennium, directed with a breathtaking désinvolture that still seems astonishing several years later. One day, I hope, Eyes Wide Shut will be recognized as one of the most beautiful works in the history of the cinema.
Only in bad works of art or the artifacts of pop culture is it possible to make a facile distinction between the periphery of a work and its core. In an imaginative creation like Kubrick's last film, the limits of the core extend to its furthermost boundaries just as what could at first glance seem peripheral penetrates to its innermost recesses. Already, the opening shots of the Harfords in their stylish apartment getting ready to go out for a soiree go far beyond simply establishing a setting. The least that could be said about these powerfully iridescent, Ophulsian compositions set to music by Shostakovitch is how much more than functional they are: rather than simply establishing a particular locale, they serve to introduce us to a perversely enchanted world. The mise en scène is incantatory, but the spirits it is calling up are those of high-tech consumerism.
In these images, the décor glows with a maleficent radiance, making of the Harfords themselves little more than the props of their own property. Small wonder that such a culture finds the culmination of its most refined pleasures in the celebration of a Black Mass at a mansion on Long Island--movie trivia buffs will not fail to notice a visual allusion to Alfred Hitchcock's North by Northwest--attended by the crème de la crème of the rich, famous, and powerful, a ritual which blasphemously travesties the Christmas festivities taking place at the same moment and which has striking parallels to the events of de Sade's The 120 Days of Sodom in both its literary version and its much later screen adaptation by Pier Paolo Pasolini, Salò o le 120 giornati di Sodoma (1975).
In the milieu in which the Harfords move, reified to the last degree, success is all a matter of remaining on the surface of things, and Bill Harford has thoroughly mastered that skill. But the surface begins to crack open one evening when his wife relates a fantasy about sleeping with a Naval officer they had briefly glimpsed at a resort. Bill reacts violently to this confession, insisting that he has never had similar fantasies of his own. But he cannot exorcise the images she has planted in his mind and they soon begin to take shape on the screen. Moreover, this fantasy which increasingly obsesses Harford opens up to a larger world of collective desires underlying the beautiful realm of surfaces in which Bill wishes to remain happily imprisoned. Forced to confront that underworld by series of encounters involving the daughter of a patient, a prostitute, and ultimately a Satanist coven, he can only reject it as a mystery.
The phrase "eyes wide shut" is virtually an etymological gloss on the word "mystery." In the words of Carl Kerényi (in his essay "The Mysteries of the Kabeiroi"), "The source of the term 'Mysteria'--as also of 'mystes' and 'mystikos'--consists in a verb whose ritual significance is 'to initiate' (µυeΐν), developed from the verb µύeιν, 'to close the eyes or mouth.'" He goes on to add, "the Mysteria begin for the mystes when, as sufferer of the event (µυούµeνος), he closes his eyes, falls back as it were into his own darkness, enters into the darkness." And is there anything less enigmatic about an audience sitting in a darkened theater, an audience which also could be said to fall back as it were into its own darkness, to enter its darkness--to borrow Kerenyi's formulation--watching this spectacle being enacted on screen?
It is Bill's friend, the musician Nick Nightingale who tells him of playing at an event whose specifics are unclear to him, since he has to play blindfolded. Nevertheless, the few details he has been able to spy upon after the blindfold slightly fell from his eyes the last time he performed rouse Bill's interest, and he demands to go along to the event. When Harford, the non-initiate, violates this mystery, he not only disrupts its performance, but commits a crime which can only be atoned for by a human sacrifice--that of the young woman whom Harford has previously rescued from a drug overdose at the fancy party the evening before.
Yet there is little mystery about this mystery, which continues in a perhaps more explicit vein the theme of archaic regression that recurs throughout Kubrick's work--perhaps most arrestingly in 2001: A Space Odyssey, in which modern technology is presented as an outgrowth of the anthropoids' fetishization of the black obelisk which has descended to them from the heavens like the stone given by Gabriel to Abraham enshrined in the Kaaba. Civilization is constantly haunted by the specter of the barbaric past it has never been able to overcome, and the cult in Eyes Wide Shut is only a final incarnation of this key motif which Kubrick employed here for last time. After that death had the final word: Acta est fabula!

there are secret societies related to child trafficking and this brings some light

Reviewed in the United States on February 8, 2024

Verified Purchase

This immediately made me think of the child trafficking cases in Europe, Belgium and in NYC and Epstein. I think the director Stanley Kubrick was murdered after producing this because it hit too close to reality of the secret societies. The director died right after shooting the last scene of this movie. If you notice the end where the man shooting pool tells the doctor (Tom Cruise) that she was a hooker or “just a hooker” and therefore murdering women or sacrificing them is not wrong or that it’s ok, and that hookers do drugs so in fact she killed herself….this is the same excuse serial killers used to murder people, the same excuse people use to beat their wives. Basically murder women (or children) and claim they are just hookers (or witches) after they are dead so that nobody will investigate or care. I liked the ending of the couple getting back together and being grateful for their lives instead of the sick perverted lives of the ritualistic elites who traffic children and murder them. This video didn’t cover child trafficking but it fits the narrative of many trafficked child survivors who are coming out and speaking out today.

Typically enigmatic Kubrick....

Reviewed in the United States on October 7, 2006

Verified Purchase

Here we have one of the strange types of non-futuristic, non-iconoclastic films Kubrick has made since "The Shining". Considering the mindset that Kubrick had been in since "Dr. Strangelove", I always found it a little disappointing when Kubrick came out with something that somebody else, like Alan Rudolph or Robert Altman, could have easily made. Tell the truth...weren't you a WEE bit disappointed when "The Shining" came out not long after "Star Wars IV: A New Hope" transformed the cinematic landscape? I know ((I)) was eager to see what Stan the Man had waiting in the wings to answer to the only movie to give his "2001" a run for its money.

What we have here is a study of what life for a pretty yuppie couple is like shortly after confessions of adulterous fantasies by the wife, played by Nicole Kidman are delineated in private. This gets her doctor husband, unrealistically portrayed by Tom Cruise, to thinking of perhaps entertaining his OWN thoughts of infidelity! This takes him on an odyssey, (if you'll forgive the pun,) involving death, the services of a friendly prostitute, and a cryptic encounter with a secret society of sexual wantons apparently populated by some very important people from all over. After a long week of depravity, intrigue and feelings of guilt, Dr. Harford, played by Cruise, goes crying back to his wife and the film ends with their darling little daughter picking out potential Christmas presents in what looks like F.A.O. Schwartz.

One thing Kubrick definitely brought to this film was his prerequisite, post-"2001" coldness. The film feels objective, rather than SUB-jective, as if you are part of a psychiatric panel assessing the players for some thesis on the subejct of marital fidelity. The style, however, borrows from a couple of Kubrick's heirs and contemporaries: Federico Fellini and David Lynch. The secret society sex club scenes are classic Lynch. The matter-of-fact nudity and suggested sexual hijinx, the eerie music played during these scenes, give it a "Fellini Satyricon" or "Roma" sort of feel..... That, and the outright weirdness and quietness of the scene helps it throw off a "Twin Peaks" aspect as well. You half expect a dancing dwarf to pop up any second. And yes, the cinematography is excellent...a Kubrick hallmark since "Spartacus". However, there is none of the Kubrick "substance" here, the way I remember perceiving it...none of the gimlet-eyed take on man's behavior, as in "Dr. Strangelove","Clockwork Orange" or "Barry Lyndon"; almost NONE of the humor you usually see in a Kubrick movie. No...this time it's a given that man is slime, and events in the story just follow a natural denouement. The ending is somewhat unsatisfying, not quite as bad as the ending to "Rosemary's Baby"....but you keep on wondering: "when's the other shoe going to drop?" and then one doesn't. FIE!

It is such a damned shame that we lost Stanley soon after this film was completed, because I would have loved to have eventually SEEN his answer to "Star Wars" or "Alien" or perhaps "Total Recall", all excellent sci-fi movies that owe a lot to him and his inimitable style. (It also would have been nice if he could have selected the director for "2010", perhaps the most disappointing sequel ever made, but that's all moot now.)

Play taps, somebody...the world is a lot poorer for the loss.

Eyes Wide Shut

Reviewed in Italy on November 29, 2023

Verified Purchase

"Eyes Wide Shut" è un film drammatico psicologico del 1999 diretto da Stanley Kubrick. Questo è stato l'ultimo film diretto da Kubrick, e come molte delle sue opere, ha suscitato discussioni e interpretazioni intense.

Ecco alcune caratteristiche principali del film:

- **Trama:** Il film segue la storia del dottor Bill Harford, interpretato da Tom Cruise, che, dopo scoperte sorprendenti sulla sua vita coniugale, si avventura in una notte di esplorazione sessuale e mistero a New York.

- **Temi:** "Eyes Wide Shut" esplora temi complessi come la sessualità, il desiderio, la gelosia e l'attrazione. Il film tocca anche argomenti più profondi riguardanti la società, l'identità e la natura umana.

- **Estetica visiva:** Il film è noto per la sua estetica visiva distintiva, con lunghe riprese, un uso sofisticato delle luci e delle ombre e una colonna sonora memorabile.

- **Cast:** Oltre a Tom Cruise, il film vanta la partecipazione di Nicole Kidman nel ruolo della moglie di Harford. Entrambi gli attori hanno ricevuto elogi per le loro performance.

- **Controversie:** "Eyes Wide Shut" è stato oggetto di controversie, soprattutto per le sue scene sessuali esplicite e per le interpretazioni ambigue. La produzione è stata segnata dalla morte improvvisa di Kubrick poco dopo la sua conclusione.

Il film di Kubrick è considerato una riflessione profonda sulla psiche umana, la società contemporanea e l'esplorazione dei desideri più oscuri. La sua complessità ha alimentato discussioni e analisi critiche nel corso degli anni.
