Eyes Wide Shut (1999) Why Press Play
-
- TV & Film
On this episode of Why Press Play we put on the Venetian masks of mystery and explore the last movie or arguably the greatest director of the 20th century; Stanley Kubrick's Eyes Wide Shut from 1999.
Definitely not a feel good Sunday evening movie, this challenging and entirely engrossing vignette into the dark world behind the glitzy facade of the upper echelons of high society will make you question everything you think you know about that side of our world (much less nowadays but this is from 1999)
Kubrick died just before this movie was released and therefore it is widely considered 'unfinished' as he did like to hang around the editing booth for months tweaking and fixing. Some even say it was the subject matter in the film that ensured his untimely demise, including his daughter. Watch it and see what you think! Sean has massive insight to this film and has way more knowledge that this little movie podcast can hold about Kubrick and the depth of visual storytelling he regularly created.
And you can also categorise this one as a Christmas movie as its set at Christmas time and there is a Christmas tree in every scene! I know, weird right? But this movie does indeed deserve as many rewatches as your brain will let you!
If you would like to find Sean online you can go to his YouTube channel here https://www.youtube.com/user/SeanDrawn1 and from there you can find all the other places he resides on the internet. He is a gifted comedian, writer, and artist and I'm sure there are way to interact with him and all these versions of his art online.
**Disclaimer** This episode was one of a batch that was recorded in the old studio in 2017! Imagine?!! I will be releasing about another dozen of these in the coming weeks and Why Press Play is making a resurgence into the podcasting space :) Its good to be back, and I hope you enjoy the show!
