Eyes Wide Shut...

... now that I've finally seen the supposed POS, I was knocked out by what must be a masterwork fugue by Kubrick.

Spooky, trivial yet heavy, vain yet captivating throughout.

EWS is significant. EWS has such powerful resonance that it recalls "Rosemary's Baby", for me.

Even this Kubrick's "worst" movie is leagues better than most others out there, such that I would rank it along side my favorites "Training Day" and "As Good As It Gets" for best of the '90's.

Also it is beautiful to watch, although the beginning Chris Izaak music choices felt cheap/wrong and caught me off guard.

See what others may have missed...

(Oh, it is not family fare.)
