EWS was a masterpiece by one of the masters, Kubrick. It's easy to slam Hollywood and the Cruise/Kidman team. Let's give credit where it is due, Kubrick's timing is impeccable and both Cruise and Kidman turned out stella performances.

Watch this film with an open mind, check your snobbery at the door. Forget the Hollywood hype that marketed this movie and the box office stars.

Then, pretend you are at an Indie screening and the actors are unknown. Perhaps you will be able to absorb the subleties; Kubrick's direction, camera angles and music mesmorize.
