60 of 200 · most liked firstTurns out EYES WIDE SHUT (1999) is a true story. Not idle speculation or merely Kubrickian paranoia. That movie is about the catastrophic damage that happens when one merely 'brushes up against' the powerful. It's a terrible and ugly truth and we must face it collectively and courageously.

Note the single fang, always a sign of a happy cat.

unlabelledView post →Stanley Kubrick portrayed this kind of "party" in his 1999 film, "Eyes Wide Shut". At the time, it seemed outrageously conspiratorial; perhaps he knew something most of the rest of us didn't.
unlabelledView post →"Eyes Wide Shut" (1999), while 100% being a Stanley Kubrick film, has always felt like a missing David Lynch work between "Lost Highway" (1997) and "Mulholland Drive" (2001). Might be fun to explore in a discussion.
