Eyes Wide Shut
I wasn't quite sure what this short story was trying to be. The husband seemed so determined to cheat on his wife, yet I suppose he couldn't quite bring himself to do it. In the film, he is constantly haunted by an image of her cheating on him. The novella portrays the husband/doctor as a very handsome man. Women are constantly throwing themselves at him. My biggest problem with the movie was Tom Cruise. I just don't see it. Why would women be throwing themselves at him? Also, Nicole Kidman was nude, why did they never show him below the waist? And just one glimpse of his bare chest.
Another weird film by Kubrick. At least I felt this one was watchable.
