00:00:00.080
especially considering each one of these masks hides an elite or famous wealthy individual
00:00:05.680
which is clearly fiction and not ever representative of anything that has happened in real life
00:00:10.320
1999 makes you want to wonder why he was uh why he passed away but anyway this just happened in
00:00:14.720
mar-a-lago several weeks ago doesn't look really familiar mar-a-lago head of the conservative
00:00:26.240
movement, huh?
00:00:32.640
Leeds never wanted to see this movie,
00:00:34.300
so this is why Stanley Kubrick's
00:00:36.580
last film, Eyes Wide Shut,
00:00:38.360
came out in 1999, and
00:00:40.200
he died before
00:00:42.300
it was released. It was released posthumously.
00:00:45.280
He was,
00:00:46.260
apparently, you know, he had some problems,
00:00:48.320
but this movie was altered a lot
00:00:49.740
and was not released
00:00:52.220
in its original form. Let me see if I said posthumously
00:00:54.060
corrected he posthumously posthumously okay if you make any further inquiries or if you say a
00:01:03.380
single word to anyone about what you have seen there will be the most dire consequences for you
00:01:12.980
and your family
00:01:15.180
do you understand
00:01:19.000
man those color scheme in these shots are so brilliant
00:01:25.060
very well there are not many movies that can make you forget you are watching one while you
00:01:32.380
are watching one movies that almost put a spell on you for two to three hours where you are fully
00:01:37.660
immersed in what can only and again i talked about that yesterday only blue velvet is one of the best
00:01:42.100
of all time if you ever want to seem like a good film nerd or anything i'll just put you onto some
00:01:45.780
sauce i did go to film school and this is my life blue velvet by david lynch is one of the best of
00:01:50.940
all time and he has really complicated movies but i like this one a lot because it's easily
00:01:56.760
digestible compared to most of them if you want to get into lynch it'd be this and if you want to
00:02:00.700
see something really lynchian here's uh you ever see nikki minaj go on kaisen at stream
00:02:05.820
hold on this is what is super oh come on please just find the clip quickly yes this
00:02:12.260
this is kind of lynchian right here
00:02:14.020
everything about this is like if you've seen the midget in twin peaks enter the scene like
00:02:23.420
doing this weird walk the architecture here the color scheme the the framing kaisenat unintentionally
00:02:30.940
unintentionally showed
00:02:33.040
this is lynchian this is lynch without showing you lynch
00:02:41.940
like the bbl the dance the the introduction the 3 a.m the hypnotic state the chat was in her tongue
00:02:52.380
look at kai too i don't want to get copyrighted on youtube but yeah just
00:03:01.100
everything about this bro but anyway yes so lynch what makes him so great is that his description
00:03:08.000
of like how to write a great movie is to write down dreams he got all of his writing material
00:03:12.300
from his dreams because he thought movies were a reflection of reality and dreams are a reflection
00:03:16.960
of your subconscious which is the describer the description of reality that you have your only
00:03:21.680
real reference point and eyes wide shut kind of matches that eyes wide shut is in a dreamlike
00:03:25.680
state he'll describe it here but you'll see why eyes wide shut is essentially a dream
00:03:31.640
fully immersed in what can only really be called an experience and then when it's over you go over
00:03:39.240
damn eyes wide shut is one of those movies it pulls you in and hypnotizes you you know what's
00:03:46.520
great about this too this is in supposed to be the west village east village of new york city
00:03:49.860
and at the end of his life kubrick did not want to even leave london he could not be off to go
00:03:54.420
to the united states so they literally built a new york city set and it's super accurate
00:03:58.220
this is one of my favorite videos of new york city it didn't even shoot there
00:04:01.360
a way that to most movies simply can't and just like its main protagonist makes you feel like you
00:04:08.400
saw something that you are not supposed to see adapted from the 1926 german novel and this this
00:04:15.200
novel here for eyes wide shut fans and everything it's more about the story of a marriage about
00:04:20.680
marital problems and about looking the other way and the jealousy that comes with it right one of
00:04:26.720
the crux moments of the story and of this movie is how the wife is describing this fantasy she had
00:04:32.040
where she slept with the sailor that they had met at that she met at a party and that's why he goes
00:04:36.120
in the protagonist tom cruise goes on an adventure because he couldn't handle it right she starts
00:04:40.760
smoking weed she's like telling how she fantasized sleeping with the sailor the super tough sailor
00:04:44.880
and he's just like a hobnami manhattan socialite doctor he can never be a sailor
00:04:49.500
but the movie goes a lot more esoteric than just marital 26 german novella dream story
00:04:57.320
eyes wide shut follows bill harford a wealthy doctor living with his wife someone said bro
00:05:02.900
reads novels yeah yeah yes i like reading cole kidman in new york lucky son of a bitch who
00:05:09.680
starts freaking out when the day after coming home from an upper class party hosted by his
00:05:15.820
well the aristocratic patient and
00:05:17.900
Epstein
00:05:18.880
friend Ziegler
00:05:21.080
Kim and his wife get
00:05:23.600
into a heated argument and
00:05:25.620
she reveals to him, while they
00:05:27.600
are blazing it mind you, that she
00:05:29.580
had an affair with someone else
00:05:31.560
in her dream? Yeah she dreamt about it
00:05:33.700
So when he learns about this, he freaks
00:05:35.840
out and goes on one
00:05:37.480
crazy spiteful adventure through
00:05:39.860
New York to cope with the
00:05:41.760
fact that he got cucked in his
00:05:43.620
wife's dream
00:05:44.640
But it's the way the story unfolds
00:05:48.460
Which gradually gets more and more extreme
00:05:51.520
In the situations Bill gets himself into
00:05:54.340
He goes on a house call to a patient
00:05:56.700
And then the patient's daughter confesses her love for him
00:06:00.100
Right in front of her dad
00:06:02.900
Who is literally dead right there in the same room
00:06:05.920
And she's married
00:06:07.560
Get a grip, lady
00:06:09.220
So he leaves
00:06:10.360
Well, let her grieve, man
00:06:11.640
Let her grieve
00:06:12.180
People grieve
00:06:12.660
That's not Erica Kirk, Chad.
00:06:14.020
Stop saying that.
00:06:15.040
This is not Erica Kirk and J.D. Vance.
00:06:18.060
No.
00:06:18.560
Dude, that's super disrespectful, okay?
00:06:21.520
Do not say that.
00:06:22.520
Erica Kirk is busy lighting up fireworks at the stadium.
00:06:25.280
She would not do this.
00:06:25.940
He gets assaulted by a group of frat bros.
00:06:29.840
Then he bumps into a hooker called Domino, like the pizza.
00:06:33.620
And what's important is that even these frat bros, they call them gay.
00:06:35.840
They're like, oh!
00:06:36.480
I don't want to say it for YouTube reaction, but they call them homophobic slurs.
00:06:40.700
like literally every single interaction that tom cruise has with every single character in this
00:06:45.280
movie is sexual then he bumps into a hooker called a domino like the pizza but he resists her
00:06:51.720
what am i too schizo or did you guys hear that hold on then he bumps into a hooker called a
00:07:01.720
domino like the pizza but he resists her advances and leaves then he walks into a
00:07:10.660
random cafe and meets up with his old friend, Nick Nightingale, so he can invite himself to
00:07:16.060
a secret masked party in upstate New York. So he goes to get a mask and costume from this Russian
00:07:22.740
guy's place and bribes him to open up shop in the middle of the night so he can get a mask and a
00:07:28.140
cape. Bro, it's fiending to go to that party. This is kind of like Elon Musk right here.
00:07:31.200
Please, can I go to the... Allegedly, in my opinion. Please, can I go to the island? Please,
00:07:34.860
I'll bring the costume. I want the jerky. I want the pizza. Please, please, Jeff.
00:07:40.660
$100? Yes.
00:07:42.740
But when he goes inside, he sees that the owner's daughter is being pimped out to these two Japanese guys.
00:07:49.300
I've got tech teams in Japan.
00:07:51.020
I'm afraid that's out of the question.
00:07:52.780
Then he rocks up to the party where a group of masked elites seemingly fulfilled their wildest desires.
00:08:01.980
Huh?
00:08:02.280
But because he's an idiot, outed himself in front of all the masked elites.
00:08:06.560
Get undressed.
00:08:07.660
Oh boy.
00:08:08.000
But luckily, they let him go in exchange for this mysterious woman
00:08:11.940
who weirdly sacrificed her life for his.
00:08:15.560
Let him go!
00:08:17.840
Then he goes home and sleeps it off.
00:08:19.680
Then, over the next two days, nearly self-destra-
00:08:23.000
Bro, look how beautiful this lighting is.
00:08:24.380
I don't care.
00:08:24.680
People are going to call me an arty farty film nerd.
00:08:26.620
This composition here, Stanley Kubrick was really the greatest of all time.
00:08:30.280
...into his own paranoia and confusion about the whole situation
00:08:34.160
as he tries to piece together the pieces of the puzzle
00:08:37.120
which are all hidden in plain sight before him.
00:08:40.040
When I explain it like that, it sounds simple.
00:08:42.940
But like all of Kubrick's films,
00:08:44.640
the devil is in the details
00:08:46.060
and it's always what's behind the curtain
00:08:48.540
that you can't see,
00:08:50.040
which is always more interesting than what you can.
00:08:52.820
It's such a weird, strange movie
00:08:55.240
that glorifies speculation after speculation,
00:08:58.680
conspiracy after conspiracy
00:09:00.540
about the nature of its scenes.
00:09:02.600
You guys keep saying he gives his kid away at the end.
00:09:04.320
I don't think that's true at all.
00:09:06.540
I don't, there's no instance in the movie where that's the, but don't spoil it for people who haven't seen Eyes Wide Shut.
00:09:11.100
And what its true intention really is.
00:09:13.720
And after every viewing, there are always new thoughts and realizations that pop into your mind.
00:09:21.040
It's insane.
00:09:22.400
Is it merely a disturbing satire about a guy who gets blue-balled for two and a half hours?
00:09:27.400
Who is the man on the red coat?
00:09:28.520
Is it about the fragility of marriage?
00:09:30.220
Who is the masked man that nods to Bill?
00:09:32.220
Is Bill being followed?
00:09:33.020
Is it about the nature of desire and its potential consequences?
00:09:35.900
What happened to Nick Nightingale?
00:09:37.580
Did Kubrick make the film to make Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman divorce?
00:09:41.260
Did he make this film to warn us about Scientology
00:09:44.220
because he, in his wife's words, lost his daughter to Scientology?
00:09:47.780
Why is Tom's tooth perfectly aligned in the centre of his face?
00:09:50.660
Is this what happens when you take the wrong turn at Balenciaga?
00:09:52.860
Did that prostitute really just happen to die of an overdose or was she murdered?
00:09:56.140
Is this bohemian growth?
00:09:57.260
Or is this entire movie just a subtle expose of the wealthy elite
00:10:01.020
which hosts sick, twisted parties
00:10:03.380
on a realm the common man cannot even fathom.
00:10:06.340
And when someone tries to speak out,
00:10:08.260
they die under suspicious circumstances.
00:10:11.940
And also apparently the theory is that
00:10:13.880
the original title is supposed to be
00:10:15.160
Jaden, Eyes Wide Shut.
00:10:18.200
J-E-W-S.
00:10:22.440
Yes.
00:10:23.120
What makes Eyes Wide Shut so special though
00:10:25.980
is it's very weirdly crafted dreamlike atmosphere.
00:10:31.400
And how it draws you in
00:10:33.120
into what is this nightmare blunt rotation scenario,
00:10:36.600
which is what leaves you to question
00:10:38.280
if anything was even real.
00:10:40.540
Okay, that was super schizo.
00:10:41.780
I never saw that.
00:10:42.280
Someone said, yeah,
00:10:43.160
because Nicole Kidman is the wife.
00:10:44.900
Kid man.
00:10:48.280
Kid man.
00:10:49.820
Bill has one long night of exploring,
00:10:52.620
you know, who he is,
00:10:53.680
what are his desires,
00:10:54.780
and then ultimately declining into paranoia
00:10:57.840
as he is forced to confront every stupid mistake
00:11:00.900
he stupidly made the night before.
00:11:03.120
here's the thing bill is wealthy he doesn't tom cruise kind of look like clavicular he's a rich
00:11:07.940
old guy he throws around cash willy-nilly he can bribe his way into places he rips up 100
00:11:14.540
notes like it's nothing he is what most people would consider the one percent to be but it's
00:11:20.480
not until he gets but not the point one percent small glimpse at the top one percent of the one
00:11:25.460
percent does he realize that he is in way over his death and is just a shock to him as it is to us
00:11:31.400
i've seen many horror movies i've seen some very creepy and disturbing scenes but no scene has
00:11:37.720
evoked a strange level of dread in me that the masked party scene has while still maintaining
00:11:44.840
this dreamlike hazy quality to it there are just so many different interpretations you can ponder
00:11:50.680
that it causes your mind to endlessly question and maybe even potentially overanalyze the details
00:11:56.600
i'll give you an example it's never quite 100 confirmed but it's alleged that this guy in the
00:12:01.720
tricorn hat that nods to bill is actually ziegler ziegler but i don't know for sure maybe he was
00:12:07.640
actually the one to notice that he was an outsider and to test him further to confirm his suspicion
00:12:13.160
those were not just ordinary you did that perfectly yeah i said oh my god
00:12:17.800
galane maxwell elon musk i studied this when i was making my film one shot that i showed in the
00:12:21.560
the film garage the short film i made with yay in spain i was listening to that soundtrack a lot
00:12:26.900
where it's uh from eyes wide shut off hold off hold off and heal a little hold off me
00:12:33.200
first like reverse latin people there if i told you their names i'm not going to tell you their
00:12:39.460
names but if i did dexter dexter soundtrack sleep so you can't be 100 certain i never really got
00:12:45.660
the vibe that this guy was trying to save bill but really just test to see if he's an interloper
00:12:50.980
but you'll never be able to fully understand it and you always fear what you don't understand
00:12:55.740
dog the entire sequence is like 25 minutes long but pacing wise it feels like it's just three
00:13:01.900
minutes because it's like perfectly envelops the viewer into i think the last hour drags a little
00:13:06.400
bit but that meditative dream-like state especially at the party is the most encapsulating
00:13:11.620
entrancing filmmaking i've ever seen in my life and santa kubrick really has a perfect discography
00:13:17.600
I think he only made 10 films.
00:13:19.420
This is his 10th, if I'm not mistaken.
00:13:21.720
And he was passed away before it released.
00:13:25.700
But he has a perfect body of work, bro.
00:13:28.640
First one, I still haven't seen the bomb one.
00:13:31.960
But Stanley Kubrick, bro, the go-to director.
00:13:34.360
Super go-to director.
00:13:36.500
Obviously, he did 2001 Space Odyssey.
00:13:38.520
Clockwork Orange is one of my favorites.
00:13:39.840
The Shining, best horror movie of all time.
00:13:41.780
Barry Lyndon is a beautiful period piece.
00:13:44.380
Full Metal Jacket, anti-war.
00:13:46.460
like this is just incredible bro i still have lolita lepeto movie i still have to see dr
00:13:53.940
strangelove in its entirety spartacus and paths of glory but up here bro clockwork orange method
00:14:00.240
i always had to post this up in my room when i was younger you guys got to check it out
00:14:03.500
that you just lose track of time with how fucking weird and mythical it is please
00:14:09.600
come forward its ambience its vibe and its setting is like a horror movie there are so
00:14:17.320
so many subtle details that you completely miss because you are so caught up in the visuals and
00:14:22.700
the way the scene is actually presented to you the masked attendees you know if you actually stop
00:14:28.320
and analyze the masks themselves each one is unique and tells its own story which is just
00:14:34.140
very eerie especially considering each one of these masks hides an elite or famous wealthy
00:14:40.060
individual which is clearly fiction and not ever representative of anything that has happened in
00:14:44.860
real life 1999 makes you want to wonder why he was uh why he passed away but anyway this
00:14:50.620
just happened in mar-a-lago several weeks ago doesn't look really familiar mar-a-lago
00:14:56.780
And the way you look tonight
00:15:00.480
Head of the conservative movement, huh?
00:15:03.200
is that elon like who's under this
00:15:33.200
Who is that?
00:15:43.200
I think in the same morning, too, they had a Shabbat breakfast, if not mistaken, where they all gave pamphlets with a menu with the giant star of David, the flag of Israel, on it.
00:15:53.200
Same day, all happening in Mar-a-Lago.
00:15:57.480
Life ever.
00:15:58.340
Actually, I don't know what I'm even talking about.
00:16:00.020
This movie and the next...
00:16:01.340
What the fuck?
00:16:03.200
a lot of the masks are venetian in nature this mask looks like a plague doctor which you know
00:16:10.000
the plague hit venice pretty hard back in the 1300s there's a donald trump mask this mask all
00:16:16.000
the way back there looks like george soros there's even an illuminati mask bill outs himself partly
00:16:21.760
because he chooses the mask of a commoner the volto mask which accentuates the eyes whereas
00:16:27.120
the other masked members have the eyes distorted or covered completely thematically the masks
00:16:32.640
themselves are important to the film's narrative and have symbolic purpose. It's all about cover
00:16:38.420
ups and it's about the lies we tell to each other. I mean Bill was already involved in a mini cover
00:16:43.640
up at the start of the film at Ziegler's party when a prostitute... Ziegler Epstein's party in
00:16:48.020
the Christmas party. Prostitute ODs and he covers it up. Mandi has an overdose and he calls in Bill
00:16:54.740
to see if he can savour the situation. Ziegler is shown to be a very wealthy and well-known
00:17:00.120
individual with a reputation to uphold so this would obviously be a disaster to his well-being
00:17:05.320
and it's just uncomfortable to me how he kind of wags his finger at her like uh uh uh you didn't
00:17:10.380
say the magic word you know it's super funny here too yeah so ziggler hires a prostitute here
00:17:15.620
the dialogue is so important here because like you were a bad kid you're a bad kid what were
00:17:20.740
you doing you messed up it's like she od because she was doing too much coke and heroin and fent
00:17:24.300
at the same time and then as soon as the problem arises ziggler turns from a guy soliciting a
00:17:28.920
prostitute and to like a teacher you're a bad kid bad kid says that very specifically to me how he
00:17:36.640
kind of wags his finger at her like uh uh uh you didn't say the magic word calls her kiddo that was
00:17:42.180
really one hell of a scare you gave us kiddo kiddo and she apologizes sorry as if it was a kid
00:17:49.200
misbehaving the audacity of this man there's so many different thoughts and feelings that enter
00:17:54.800
your mind as you watch this the man in the red cloak doing this weird ritual with a staff and
00:18:00.480
a smoking bowl and a chain the setting itself you know the mid 18 but this looks like uh it looks
00:18:06.060
like a rothschild mansion doesn't know let's go back i don't know where it was shot this right
00:18:11.560
here doesn't this look like a rothschild mansion let's see oh yeah literally identical it literally
00:18:22.220
looks exactly like the
00:18:23.260
the Waitson Manor
00:18:25.280
and again you saw Ariana
00:18:30.100
de Rothschild was emailing Epstein back and
00:18:32.200
forth asking for
00:18:33.960
chocolate ice cream allegedly in my opinion
00:18:35.960
it was shot at one
00:18:37.520
was it shot at a Rothschild mansion
00:18:40.200
how did he even
00:18:42.140
get the rights to do that
00:18:42.980
it looks like this doesn't it
00:18:45.860
yeah Ariana de Rothschild
00:18:48.420
just exposed in the Epstein
00:18:50.120
files allegedly in my opinion for looking for chocolate ice cream
00:18:52.200
at a go about a naked pool party
00:18:55.120
itself you know the mid 1800s victorian architecture is dazzling but creepy at the
00:19:03.040
same time all of the exterior shots from the outside of the mansion are actually from
00:19:07.360
mentmore towers which was originally built for the rothschilds what the fuck
00:19:12.100
what the fuck
00:19:17.000
actually the ritual itself is a christian sermon delivered in romanian but played in reverse
00:19:24.460
which is what gives it that strange eerie feel to the whole thing please come the ringleader in
00:19:31.860
the red cloak has this mocking happy manner about him get undressed yes you will kindly
00:19:38.360
remove your mask that's unfortunate it's just so strange and weird i love it personally i went
00:19:46.920
into this film raw i had no idea what it was about all i knew was that it and that harvey
00:19:53.200
kytel left the project because he was frustrated with kubrick's directing style is that the
00:19:57.960
brooklyn in you do you think yeah stanley kubrick was a known ultra perfectionist people always
00:20:03.840
talk about that story in highs wide shut where the female lead she had to she's like almost went
00:20:08.800
insane because he would shoot things like 150 100 well this film took years to make and they split
00:20:14.300
it over several years he would he was the most well-known perfectionist in cinema history it's
00:20:20.020
a sense of ruth in me so imagine experiencing this for the first time i feel in the shining
00:20:25.200
to get lost trying to figure out the hidden messages of kubrick's films that you forget
00:20:30.180
the emotional and visceral response you get from actually watching his films. The lighting is very
00:20:36.480
aesthetically beautiful. I told you, I mean, look at this color scheme right here. Everything's
00:20:41.300
shot as a painting. Every frame is a painting. What's your favorite Kubrick movie chat? Someone
00:20:45.240
saying Clockwork Orange. 2001 is up there as one of the greatest films of all time. My personal
00:20:49.160
favorite's got to be Eyes Wide Shut, even though I don't think it's the best. What do you guys
00:20:52.480
think? What's the best Kubrick of all time? 2001, Barry Lyndon. What do you guys think? Barry Lyndon?
00:20:59.280
that's a really film nerd answer that's not the most popular yeah 2001 people say people say that
00:21:06.280
stanley kubrick directed the moon landing but oh that's why you said the moon landing that's funny
00:21:10.200
you don't know interstellar shut up that's fucking uh christopher nolan goofy that would
00:21:16.060
never exist without 2001 2001's a snooze fest that's one of my bro i love that movie especially
00:21:21.640
the ending all the freemason analogies batman okay why am i asking kick chat this stuff i can
00:21:28.420
still conveying subtle insights into the theme of its narrative it's not like conventional
00:21:33.700
movie lighting and it's not made to look or feel realistic the cinematography and specific framing
00:21:40.500
staging and blocking of certain images is extremely intentional in what it wants you to see this is
00:21:46.180
the mood the music from uh jango one change right and blocking of certain images is extremely
00:21:51.220
intentional in what it wants you to see i actually don't think there is anyone that can make a movie
00:21:56.180
like this anymore it's just extinct like you really just don't get scenes looking like that
00:22:00.880
today the use of color is genius and it's always orange and blue contrast throughout what like
00:22:05.980
even in the shot with the cab orange and blue contrast same thing with the cab jar or orange
00:22:09.440
and blue contrast really ties the whole film together primarily you see gold for wealth
00:22:14.480
red for danger and desire in fact red being almost everywhere makes the whole film feel
00:22:19.640
very claustrophobic at times and blue which is uncertainty or genuine unease throughout the
00:22:25.520
entire film you will see some type of combination of the three whether it be people and places
00:22:31.100
within the scenes or directional lighting like gold lit rooms or the blue moon illuminating the
00:22:36.920
ground it's really hammering home how it wants you to feel and to some i could imagine how it
00:22:42.000
feels kind of obnoxious with the obviously unrealistic lighting but i say no again it just
00:22:47.120
adds and doubles down to that dreamy even fever dreamlike quality about it so when daylight hits
00:22:53.300
it feels like the filter has been washed away and it's realistic in tone and atmosphere and
00:22:58.640
loses that dreamlike quality to benefit the conspiracy about what happened to bill the night
00:23:03.880
before how like me a kubrick interview if you guys fax you one he almost never did interviews
00:23:07.780
was everything you know you question if he's going crazy it's like when you have a crazy dream the
00:23:12.940
night before but when you try and remember every detail about it you get frustrated because no
00:23:17.920
matter how hard you try you can never get to relive it again in everyday life from a technical
00:23:22.680
standpoint, all of these elements feel both distant yet very in your face. Hidden but obvious.
00:23:28.540
It just makes you get lost in this one night fueled by spite and ego. It's not really something
00:23:35.700
that can be put into words. It's something you have to experience for yourself. Eyes Wide Shut
00:23:40.360
is simply a brilliant film. A film that is so visually memorable. One of those films that
00:23:45.480
just stays with you in your mind forever because it's the music that haunts you. At first, it's
00:23:51.080
this bittersweet melody that introduces us to the upper class of new york then a hum at an alien
00:23:56.860
like frequency in an unknown language then there is this repetitive two-note rhythm which just
00:24:02.660
pierces the soul and not in a good way and dominates the second half of the film the
00:24:07.620
characters in this film aren't really like real characters as much as they are archetypes to
00:24:12.420
represent warnings for bill warnings for infidelity i love the way that these characters
00:24:17.500
are introduced at the finally hey bill how the hell are you been a long time oh college doing
00:24:22.560
good huh how's the family how the fuck are the kids why do white people talk to each other like
00:24:27.600
that hey how the flip are you oh fuck you you fucking piece of shit i haven't seen you in
00:24:33.040
forever how the fuck are you you fucking scumbag piece of shit asshole i fucking hate you oh my
00:24:39.020
god i'm gonna shoot you in the head you fucking you it's been years give me a hug you fucking
00:24:44.200
asshole archetypes to represent warnings for bill warnings for infidelity potential warnings
00:24:49.560
for the future of his daughter if his marriage collapses or speaking out about conspiracies
00:24:54.920
with no definite proof the thing about kubrick is that almost everything you see in the frame
00:25:00.040
or the background is intentional more so than other directors this is not the new york you are
00:25:04.680
familiar with because it's not every exterior sequence in the city was shot on a sound stage
00:25:10.120
in england meaning that everything down to the buildings the posters the trash on the ground
00:25:14.800
the cars parked on the street the extras are all intentionally placed there to look like that for
00:25:20.080
you to see because that is the intention eyes wide shut is a film where every frame is a painting
00:25:25.160
every character a warning and every scene a master class in atmosphere but he did die four
00:25:30.700
days after he submitted the first draft to warner brothers studio and even though they say that the
00:25:34.800
soundtrack that the piano that dominates the second half of the movie they said that that's
00:25:39.740
all fake too that there wasn't supposed to be in it originally so i guess we're never probably
00:25:44.780
going to see the original cut but i think it showed a lot more obviously it did especially
00:25:48.380
the party stuff year and tension 1999 was without a doubt probably the best year for movies probably
00:25:54.780
ever he had the 1999 what do you have you have this movie's called fuck i forgot this is the
00:26:00.580
first m night shamalan movie i love uh his early stuff what's his name yeah six cents you have the

00:26:56.520
another movie that will make you feel indescribable strange emotions quite like this film will evoke
00:27:02.980
in you to feel what an incredible film to top off a career and it's especially funny that the last
00:27:07.880
word from this prestigious director sex is fuck fuck i got it so goddamn close it's fuck and then
00:27:15.960
it fades to black. Have you guys ever seen my film? You guys ever see One-Shot?
