Had to re-upload due to RU-vid deeming the original to have inappropriate sexual content months after release. Moreover, this time the video got claimed due to copyright, but seems to be public. I apologize for the strange upload load schedule as of late. It's not less frustrating for me.
I enjoy your content and have been watching your videos for a while but I have to let you know you are wrong. This film was Stanley's last attempt to expose the sex cults and children traffickers that run our nation behind closed doors. At his meeting the studio Stanley got into a argument over a scene they wanted to cut from the film. Stanley told them this is my film & you can't make me change it.... It's in my contract. 6 days later after that meaning Stanley dies of " Heartattack " and that scene was cut from the film even after he expressed his feelings to the studio on not cutting it.
@@straightup9643 yeah right. I'm sick of those conspiracies. Everyone says this movie is telling something more than those "secret societies" but no one seems to say what it's saying LMAO
King Of Everything it tells more follow the rainbow etc. His last big masterpiece is a very difficult movie I don’t know how people can think it’s a marriage drama so many symbolism and kubrick is known for that These aren’t coincidences
Thank god someone got the movie because the RU-vid explanations are hilariously inaccurate. If that weren’t the case the timing of her orgy dream wouldn’t have been the same night of his encounter of the orgy. The movie cover has her eye open and his closed. She’s either the leader or the lead maddam. The guy hosting the one party whose also in the orgy and later tells Bill he was there.. the first time you see him “marriage is about deception” and he’s close with Kidd’s character. The mask on the pillow? That was her getting him to confess. “Forever scares me” I think she’s worried about giving up her power over elite sex parties say her marriage gets boring again. How do people miss this? I’m sure I could think of more.
I thought that was clear in the film. The "dream" she had after finding the mask was a reality that she could only express it as a dream. MK ultra mind control. The ritualistic abuse portrayed on children makes their personality fragment, so you can have an alternative that is moralistic and "normal" and one alternate (when the time is necessary) that is hyper-sexual and easily manipulated. Also demonstrated by the doctors daughter break when her father died. Without the control of her programmer and the shock of his death, she drifted to that hyper-sexual alter, looking for someone to dominate her as she had been groomed to behave. Strangely enough, Nicole Kidman's father was accused to being part of a sadistic satanic ritual group that abused and cannibalize children. If you have a world view that "those type of things just don't happen" then part of the brains coping mechanism is to not see it. Eyes Wide Shut. After being exposed to the truth you can not but help to see it everywhere or choose to go back into denial.
@Lucyfur I'm sure you're correct about the sequence of the scenes . Happy someone interprets similarly with me. I thought the scene with the daughter of the doctor who had died to be the most riveting acting in the whole film.
@@toyajackson556 👌🏼 Also Nicole's "dream" was in blue. Kubrick used red and blue to denote represent the different states of conciousness. Kidman's dream was a memory imo.
What it means is that we’re all really blind to the fact what’s going on around us in our every day life. Also that people higher up in society aren’t what we make them out to be as they partake in Pagan Rituals, Orgies (and god knows what else as 24 minuteswas cut from the film) but it’s been hinted that it was something to do with sacrifice & pedophelia. As I said were all so clueless what’s going around us.. Hence the name *Eyes Wide Shut*
@@SuperKannan1976 Well the name is obvious. All of this stuff is right in everybodies face, everywhere you go, every day of your life. But most people don't see it.
@Gerry Cooney president Trump is one of them. What do you mean? He raped a 13 year old girl and told her if she ever told anyone about it, he was a powerful man and could have her family killed.
Fan 52 what if wherever you got that info was not legit? The media is not bound by standards of truth and accuracy anymore and all major media is controlled by those with money and power. We believe what they want us to believe. On top of that there’s CGI software now, that anyone can get, that can alter actual video to make it look like someone said something they didn’t. And the technology to mimic voices has been around for years. This new program though can do both and no one would be able to tell whether it’s real or not. That software aside though, news stations can say something and retract it after millions of people have already seen it. It’s hard to know what to believe anymore.
Nicole Kidman father was an elite pedophile and she grew up as a participant. I always thought there was something off about her. She looks evil. Look at Keith urban...close to being a woman
@@stj971 well yes...but she was forced into it at am early age....it's called monarch programming. They usually start that Aaron's the age of 2-3...the younger the child the easier it is to "break them". It splits their personality so they can do the things requested of them without having any emotions about it.
LOL, he didn't even come up with the story, dumbass. He adapted a novella from 1926, if you took the time to read the source material you'd know all of this happens in the book. He didn't "expose" anything, he adapted a 73-year old work of fiction for the screen. And he died because he was an out of shape old man who had a heart attack. It's not remotely unusual for a 70-year old man to have a heart attack.
@@t.n.3819 Kubrick didn't have to do the movie and he sure did not stick closely to Schnitzler's novella...but he did it for a reason and he put his own personal touch upon it. He's done it before. Have you read the book? Kubrick didn't come up with The Shining either...didn't stop him from telling stories inside of the story...pissing off Stephen King in the process. Arthur Schnitzler would not have appreciated the changes either, no doubt. This is classic Kubrick.
This movie is very painful and depressing but also very realistic and true . It tells the story of a young surgeon full of confidence and courage trying to live and figure out everything about life . He is married and his wife loves him so much and like anyother woman wants him to be hers and hers only on the other hand he takes her for granted and this hurts her dignity as a woman . While he was exploring life he came in touch with the very famous most secret fraternity in the world , the free masons . At the same time his wife like any other woman taken for granted wanted to lay a shadow of doubt in his heart to make him jealous and more attentive to her . Unfortunately, he couldn't take both situations at the same time and he entered into a state of confusion about what is going on around him in the outer world and in his own family . Situation ended up in a broken young surgeon not knowing what to do , who once was full of confidence and self admiration , and a victorious wife who succeded in taming her husband who still refuse the fact that life has a very dark side better to stay away from it . My respects to Stanely Kupreks the genious director and human being .
Her dream could be a hint/ symbol of traumatic memory. That is usually how they first come back (subconsciously), THEN as flashbacks. ( I personally experienced it and first thought it was a nightmare when it was an actual memory I actually did not remember prior to that) Does she seem to have enjoyed the scene when she wakes up to call it suppressed desire? Agree that the scene where Bill tries to put together his memories is parallel to ours of the movie scenes and clues. I think that is a reference to fragmentation / personality split described in MK programming. Alice shows signs of that IMHO: being aloof, having surprising reactions, being borderline depressed, NIGHTMARE(s) etc. I think she admits that in the end and he adds "that no dream is only just a dream?"
There is no "they". It is always be you. Us. We never been programmed. It is our nature. To control or be controlled. Envy and try to feel good for it. That's the truest "awaken".
To me so much of this movie was about marriage and how easy it is to take your beautiful wife for-granted. Alice is obviously very beautiful and from the beginning of the movie, it shows her getting ready, and it shows him not even noticing or even remotely desiring her. It shows her frustration of having to go through the same motions, only to have a husband who never actually looks at her. At the party, she's given compliment after compliment, and he says nothing except "you always look beautiful" but in a very flippant kind of way. He shows no jealousy at the party. The contrast of her physical beauty with his narcissistic tendencies as a doctor, seems to show that he's blind to her emotional needs and is existing in a reality where everything looks perfect with this beautiful couple on the outside. Then, the big scene happens, and she drops this bomb on him that shatters his self-assurance and his massive ego. They have to smoke pot to actually speak the truth, or to unmask the ego. My explanation is from being in a marriage with a man of status that acted almost exactly like Tom's character, where I saw myself in Alice's character, in her frustration with her husband's neglect, given her obvious beauty. Kubrick has so much depth so obv the movie is about more than this, but, I think this was the central element of the story.
I ment it's not shown their daughter went with the men . And I hate marvel super hero movies. I don't think they would sacrifice their daughter after what they went thru. that's what I ment and I love this movie
Vanessa Ladolcetta The surface level of the film is about relationships, masculinity and femininity, the masks we wear, etc. Below that is the biological trends, and the influence of power structures on those relationships. The dreamlike story is about the corruption, the loss of purity in the marriage, but more than that, it’s a journey into the underworld. Alice is actually leading Bill into the cabal. She was at the orgy looking down in a mask when he was on trial. Earlier, she’s training her daughter to judge men by their wealth with the math problem, while Bill grabs a beer (something he does more than once, his only outlet for the stifled masculinity). The two guys at the end of the movie were sitting together at Ziegler’s Christmas party. She’s submitting Bill to the will of her masters, offering a sacrifice. It can be just interpreted as a dream though, I just wouldn’t open with, “no.”
@Nature and Physics my personal view is that Kubrick was alluding to actual events much more than is generally considered. That's all i care to say on the subject. Sorry to be obtuse.
@Nature and Physics in all seriousness, I'm only an artist. Not a scientist. I'm reluctant to put forth my opinion in too much detail for very good reasons. Opponents come out of the woodwork. Some of these types would probably accuse Oppenheimer of misunderstanding the Bhagavad Gita. You know? We feel how we feel. Sometimes it has little or nothing to do with " reason. "
After watching the video and reading the comments, I think I’m more uncertain of my interpretation, but this is the mark of true genius in storytelling, RIP Stanley Kubrick
Greatest piece of film ever created. It not only teaches you about relationships and human nature, it teaches you about the upper elites barbaloin rituals. It indicates that the elites use magik which means that either the elite are correct about the real magik or they are crazy. It is most likely that they are not crazy and it is real.
I think the removed/cut footage was about the satanic ball also dabbled in pedophilia AKA child saeks trafficking. Even more horrifying, one of the mask lady that participating turn out to be Alice. This would also imply their daughter possibly being abused/sacrificied too with Bill not knowing it fully. Just remember, this movie clearly also showcased the child prostitution by parents with the costume shop Russian guy, so it make sense if the climax of the movie also about that very topic.
I believe Kidman was the one that showed Cruise this world (exactly as in the movie) because shortly after this, Cruise became really strange with his Scientology behavior and beliefs.
I get a lot of things from the movie, I would literally need to write a full essay on it to explain my thoughts in full. The biggest thing I get from the movie, right now at this stage in my life, (separated from my wife, looking at divorce) is - DO NOT GO LOOKING, YOU MAY NOT LIKE WHAT YOU FIND, SOMETIMES IGNORANCE IS BLISS. This is just a movie about deep desires. That does not matter if they are being dreamt by your partner, or that they are actually living out their fantasies without you, with other people. The point is that the intent is already there. Once that seed has been planted in a human beings head, they will eventually go and get what they desire. We are flawed, we are driven by emotions which are nothing more than chemicals released from our brains that will eventually get to us physically. I have had long talks with many people, including my wife regarding this movie, and everyone states clearly that Kidman's character Alice is involved sexually with other men, and Bill is not with other women yet, but wants to be, and will most probably eventually succumb to his desires. No matter how many trips to Ann Summers for Lingerie, or pretend first time meet up's we partake in with our significant other, eventually one of us/you will break, and partake in an affair of the heart which will destroy what we/you have/had with your person. This movie just presents this in a way that is mysterious and dramatic, the reality is less so, it's tears, divorce and shame.....Blessings.
I love this film, didn’t always... but a few years ago I saw Blue Velvet with my girlfriend and I loved it... taste evolves... now I find it hard not to watch this film at least once a week. Great film to fall asleep too with the hypnotic dialogue and pacing. Cool vid thanks man
More than talking about the movie, it's important to know it was Kubrick's last masterpiece before to die. Moreover, the movie approaches to secrets societies and what kind of world are we living?, so that's why this film has hidden messages. Tell me, what's your opinion on that?
@@Johnny-cz2wv the lack of enthusiasm for his wife or any woman who shows sexual interest and the sheer excitement of running into his old college buddy. the store he gets his mask has rainbow in its name 2 girls trying to lure him to "where the rainbow ends.
Just discovered this channel... holy ℱ⊎ℭ₭. It’s happening . I have NO LIE been confused as ℱ⊎ℭ₭ about %63 of these movies , the other percent I haven’t seen my good man. As we say in dade county... bet dat up ✌🏽
In my opinion I feel the original novella is not as key to understanding this movie as some folks are making it out to be. Kubrick put the source material through his lens. I feel it's too easy to say it was just a dream. I think he would have been acutely cognizant of this possibility and that the "dream perception" was just one razor-thin cross-sectional slice of the movie as a whole.
If anyone is still confused about the plot it's clear to me that in the end the parents went back to the Christmas shop and purchased both the teddy bear and the barbie for their daughter.
I think that showing the mask was to show the curious inquirer(Tom Cruz) that the " most dire consequences" was anywhere from them leaving the mask there exactly where his face would be to " legally" confiscating all his natural possessions, and possibly even bodily harm. It would also possibly entails that he was not only being watched, but these initiates of the high degrees in whatever clandestine order they happen to belong to could cause him, or his daughter, or his wife to show up missing.
@@mysterygirl30011 , quite possibly real in the sense that her mind was being proved, invaded, and even controlled by sexual magic- which is spelled- Magick instead of magic.
@@luthermcgee432 I meant actually real in the sense that it has actually happened and the dream is traumatic memory coming back. I had used quotation marks because the fact that Bill was there didn't add up but he could have been there and forgotten also. This is based on my own experience of having a nightmare and thinking it couldn't be true until I got enough flashbacks and related memories tht showed me it was true and I had forgotten about it for twenty years due to the facts being so traumatic which is the very definition of traumatic memory and usually first come back subconsciously (in dreams)
i just love the atmosphere of this movie. the lights, the setting, the music, the vibe. i could like embellish the whole place with waterfalls of led lights and have that awesome jazzy tune in the background like 24 hours straight and wouldn't mind. the atmosphere is dope.
In the film there is quite a few clues towards 'Child sex' and I have always wondered if the deleted 20 something minutes exposed this. The numerous references to Rainbows and 'over the rainbow' has always led me to believe there's more Kubrick is saying........In Ziegler's bathroom there is a large painting of a naked pregnant lady in a suggestive pose.........( the Linea Nigra is clearly visible), In the costume shop Mr Millich's daughter is engaging in sexual activity with 2 men presumably for some financial arrangement or because she enjoys sex which then implies she's been sexually active for sometime and begs the questions how and where a child can become this wanton.........She then whispers to Bill that he should hire the 'Ermine' cloak which to me suggests she knows exactly where Bill is intending to attend. When Bill returns the costume we're made aware that Mr Millich is now selling his daughter for sex and his conscience is absolutely in the freezer about it. Finally and the biggest one of all is the scene in the toy shop where Bill's daughter is escorted away in the background by the same 2 old gentlemen who were at Ziegler party at the beginning of the film who were sat at the table at the bottom of the staircase. I think it's safe to assume where they are taking her and why. You can't help but wonder that the missing minutes can only contain children as even without all Kubricks hints, it had to be something taboo enough for them to remove it in the first place.
I read a crazy theory that kinda makes sense if you look carefully ... at 7:35 those older men behind Tom and nicole appear for like the 2nd time the first being the party toward the beginning of the movie and if you pay attention to their daughter she seems to follow them and apparently this is to represent them sending her off into a sex trafficking ring...she does look up for approval to then walk around the corner by herself .. Super fucked up if that’s what it represents.
I always thought Inception could be like a sequel to this film in a way due to some similarities; with Bill as Dom Cobb, Alice as Mal and their daughter Helena reflecting James and Philipa. I mean at the end of the film both Bill & Alice still look like their eyes are wide shut in a dream, you’re practically looking for that spinning top knowing that it’ll never fall over...........
@@baileycrawly This film school moronic over complicated dissection of cinema, is equalled only by your idiotic denigration of a Group which frolic openly in Bohemian Grove. Or maybe you don't know the history, all easy to find. Then again, your disinformation flippant response is exactly what I would expect from someone who knows better.
Would you do one about blade runner 2049 or the blade runner film series? I am thinking they eventually will make one more film to complete the “trilogy”.
Genesis 3:7 Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they realized they were naked; so they sewed fig leaves together and made coverings for themselves.
In this context, sounds like you think it was a good thing Adam and Eve disobeyed God's order not to eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil And besides, except for the words 'eyes' and 'naked' this doesn't have anything to do with the film
@@ihavetubes If you're referring to the Bible quote, I agree that their action brouht them death I said it sounded like good thing they dissobeyed God (and btw I was just sarcastically saying that), because in the original comment really sounds that it was a good thing they opened their eyes Because in the movie the 'opening of eyes' is referring to something good, but not in the Bible So I don't know how the two would be connected
Her name is Alice, Wonderland, the rabbit hole, their child's sacrifice at the end, movie released in 1999, Kubrick dying 666 days before the first day of 2001, one of his best film named " 2001 a space odyssey"....WOW I become Paranoid af
I found this unbelievably hard to watch and to get through. A friend and I were determined to watch this and vanilla sky. Both were difficult to get into and enjoy. I’m glad you explained it. I will rewatch it now and see if I feel differently.
For me, the key signifier was Bill coming home to find the mask on his bed. The mask has now become his membership card to the club, with all it's benefits and protections. He passed the initiation. The mask on the bed also let him know that they could find and destroy him at any time if he were to ever step out of line or disobey orders. It's the power structure that essentially holds the strings over many levels of people. A system of rewards and/or threats can keep just about anybody in line. Society is filled with many such people in positions of politics, media/news, pro sports, and the entertainment realms. It's nothing new, just look at the pyramid (and eye of Horus) on the back of the US dollar bill. Dr Bill was paying out cash and using money throughout the night to continue on his journey. Currently we have false numbers and false testimonies dealing with CV reports, utilized to promote lockdowns, masks and vaccines. Believe what you will. Be well.
I personally think the idea of the movie is about society in general and how everyone goes about their daily lives not wanting or comprehending what’s really going how all the strings connect on the one side you have bill high class doctor at a fancy party who wants to go to an even bigger more exclusive party basically he’s never satisfied and keeps looking for ways to fit even being possibly gay and then you have the other side Nicole Kidman’s character who knows none of its real she even explains it to bill multiple times that there whole life they have together is flimsy saying she would of left him and her whole future just for some random naval officer In cape cod then you have the “secret society” basically primal people that have an ancient belief of doing whatever pleases them sleeping with whoever doing whatever they want and that’s what it’s all about we live our lives eyes wide shut pretending we’re people in a society spending money getting married like bill spends his money without caring has deep marriage and status values but in reality Kidman says at the end of the film we need to fuck most primal emotional thing humans do because nothing else matters
Actually he was giving a glimpse into the Royal Family and its members. Unless you have your third eye open and cleared you wont see it. The 24 minutes removed from the movie was the steps that were took that made them give up their daughter. The girl at the costume shop was another girl that was givin up by a different family at a young age. If you put the subtitles on during the movie, when Cruise first comes to the shop and the girl wraps her arms around him, she whispers in his ear "You need a cloak lined with ermine". This gives another hint that she is in the sex cult. That also gives the hint as to what was removed from the movie.
Why is it that one can find a millions stories inside Kubrick movies, and in recent movie blockbusters we can't find a SINGLE ONE ?!?! Ohh I know...because movies nowadays suck bigtime!
It's an exploration of sexual fantasy, dreams, jealousy, power and death ..., but ultimately the film's about FEAR. In the movie Kubrick uses marriage and erotic themes to underpin a statement about paranoia and mistrust of our loved ones and our selves...the latter two we're supposed to trust entirely with our secrets and inner truths. It's based on a book by a Viennese doctor, novelist and colleague of Sigmund Frued, who centered his books upon Psycho-analytical theory with eroticism. His stories dealt with characters facing fear and the unknown in one way or another. Another cool thing is that Kubrick sneaks in some symbolism and "easter eggs" on contemporary culture's obsession with money and status, gender roles and cults. You can really peel away at it's layers and always discover a new angle.
There is no indication that the movie is a dream. Bill never goes to sleep and he never wakes up. Consider the dream sequence in Rosemary's Baby, she's in bed before it begins, and she is in bed when it is over. Nothing happens to Bill that is so incredible that it must be a dream. He doesn't fly in the air or meet a famous person or suddenly find himself naked. The scene with Marion is pretty weird but if it was a dream how about when he calls up and Carl answers the phone? Makes sense that Bill knows that is Carl and what Carl is doing there because he saw Carl there in reality.
1:00 wow that's insane but that totally makes sense why in the movie Wedding Crashers Will Ferrell's character crashes funerals he says the chicks are even hornier at funerals
Can you do “Rules of Attraction”?? You’ve covered many cult classics and this is one of the GREATS. Definitely recommend a watch (and several rewatches)
You did nothing but a benign thinking the way a child does! This depicts something else- the dark people and their dark rituals to achieve something very unholy & sinister.
It's strange what passes for dialogue in a Kubrick movie. Here's a fun drinking game. Buy a case of tequila and invite 6 friends over. Then, pop "Eyes Wide Shut" into the DVR and state, "Everyone take a shot whenever a repeat conversation transpires." An example of a 'repeat conversation' is - Character #1 "Where are you going?" Character #2 "Where am I going." Anyone in your group conscious by the end of Act 1 is one bad-ass, hard core drinker.
I think it is like in The Shining when there are kitchen knives over Danny's head in ice cream scene. The tigers and bears are to show danger, that the whole family is still in danger from the cult. It also reminds me of the scene in The Wizard of Oz where they go into a dark and creepy woods and talk about lions and tigers and bears.
Bears , lions, tigers have an inverted meaning to occultists. These are sacred totem animals and those who seek power for themselves always pervert the meaning of sacred things. Famous example: Lyon family, their crest is everywhere in the world. It's the most infamous usage of the bear, lion, tiger in a occult family crest. If anyone knows more📞
Out of ALL his films, this is the most ambiguous. Not too sure how I feel about it really. I don't think it is a masterpiece, but I do think it is a very well made & acted film.
And he's the worst thing about the movie. I think Kubrick only got him because he was short. And more importantly, shorter than his wife, something which I imagine was true for Kubrick and his wife. If you look at the way he dresses up Kidman, looks the spitting image of his wife. With a better lead and ending, this movie could have been one of his best.
I don't understand how Nicole could play any sexual parts with all the pain herself and her father inflicted on innocent children in real life. Like she throughs it in our face.
Jen Toland I would think with so many outspoken victims on mostly her father but her also.She would have to split her personality completely, then she could have sympathy for victims from a separate personality.
@@joshdunham7167 There's a black cloak in the corner of the bedroom, you see it when Tom first appears looking for his wallet and you see it again when they leave the bedroom.
This "what it all meant" is not to be taken serious. The poster is a fraud or a dumb ass. I guess he is both.. The movie has a lot of deapth based on events happening on a daily basis. Kubrick died shortley after releasing this film. The dream aspect was just there to make it released.
You touched not very much of the meaning. There is literally so much you can interpret in this movie, you just talked about the dreaming vs consciousness aspect. Way too shallow, not just for this incredible movie also for somebody who has a youtube channel dedicated to movies if you ask me.
Actually, no. Kubrick made this movie but the studio wanted to cut 25 minutes but, and thats a huge but, Kubrick had edited right since it was his production and writing so, wait for it, Kubrick died a few days after this became public and the studio released the version they wanted.
@@pinksalt1057 no, most of the sets were closed, the party scenes were shot in studio and all of the people in the studios sign nda(all the movies), for example the Cristian bale incident was only shown below the scene was outside the studio.
@eating sugar no papa there was, the editing was totally in control of Stanley and they even had to kill him for it and if you really don't believe it after epstein and the attempt to murder the case judge just to have the killer commiting suicide, you're willingly ignorant.
