SO much subtle shit going on in it, almost have to watch it 4 or 5 times to catch it all

8/27/2008 5:39:02 PM

so underrated

8/27/2008 5:46:12 PM

not terrible

not great

i believe the novel it's based upon is set in a much earlier time period, like the 19th century or so. i think that would've worked much better.

8/27/2008 6:05:48 PM

^^^^yea every time i watch it i see tits i never saw the previous times

I bought a Casanova-style mask from Sergio Boldrin while I was in Venice. He made a few of the masks for "Eyes Wide Shut," including the one I bought.

I hated it

I'm fucked up in the sense that I've gotten more ADD as I've gotten older, instead of the other way around with most people

Anything as slow moving as this is impossible for me to sit through

8/27/2008 6:12:38 PM

Wait.

Is this the movie with that stupid reoccurring piano riff?

8/27/2008 6:43:43 PM

Yes. I thought it was cool.

8/27/2008 7:01:39 PM

I like this movie...

8/27/2008 7:59:00 PM

not terrible

not great

8/27/2008 8:00:48 PM

summary of all the tits?

8/27/2008 8:10:29 PM

he spent so much time on it that it makes me think most of us just dont get it

8/27/2008 9:09:40 PM

I need to watch that film again...

8/27/2008 10:35:24 PM

yea I really really want to go to a party like that, like every god damn whore there was a supermodel

8/27/2008 11:48:42 PM

Seriously, this movie should have won some kind of an award just for its colors and lighting.

I've read a bunch of analysis about how this film is apparently about the Illuminati and their use of mind control.

GREAT MOVIE.

LARGE CAPITAL LETTERS NEEDED TO EXPRESS HOW MUCH I LIKE THIS MOVIE.

^x3
Every Dogme 95 flick would win an award for lighting and color, by that logic.

8/28/2008 1:04:59 PM

if you want a film about incredible lighting, check out the third man by carol reed

Good movie, you can't really bash Cruise in this one, Kubrick did a great job.

freshman year my dad was visiting and he saw i had it and knew i was a huge kubrick fan and he asked about this movie.
I said "you can borrow it, but I am NOT watching it with you."

Leelee Sobieski sure fell off the map.

well aren't you fucking indie and hip for throwing out that term. Too bad you're not actually making sense.

I saw the last half of this movie on HBO one day...pretty freaky at the time

I need to rent it and watch the whole thing

9/1/2008 4:59:00 PM

I liked this movie the more I saw it.

9/1/2008 6:04:18 PM

did you not understand my sentence structure?

allow me to explain.

the statement was made that Eyes Wide Shut "should have won some kind of an award just for its colors and lighting."

Dogme 95 films are highly regarded for their beautiful use of natural lighting.

now what doesn't make sense to you?

The masks allow butterfaces to be godesses.

I understood perfectly. But it's not relevant. You can't just let the guy comment on how great the lighting and colors were? No, every dogme 95 movie would not win an oscar if this were the case. Just because they used natural lighting doesn't mean they did it well, and it CERTAINLY doesn't mean it had good color. Eyes Wide Shut's lighting, color, art direction, etc. beats the shit out of many if not MOST Dogme 95 films I've seen.
