Eyes Wide Shut -- a deeper meaning?
Just watched this for the first time last week over spring break, and holy shit it was boring and could have easily been edited down to a 10 minute short film....
The idea of my girlfriend and I watching was to try to find the deeper meaning behind it. She'd taken a film analysis class a few semesters ago, and since both of us are bright we thought we could find a meaning. We do understand the significance of the "secretive mask orgy" (as i'll call it), being a recreation of some old deviant Catholic ceremonies, but beyond that the movie just seemed pointless.
anyone here know if Kubrick was really trying to get a point across? If so, what?
