not a movie review

In fact, I can't write a movie review, but since there is a word limit for short reviews, and I don't vomit, I can say where I think of it here.
Regarding movies, Kubrick is too famous, which directly leads many people to be careful to see some philosophies and meanings when watching movies, and at worst, to see some ways. Anyway, one person sees one world, I have to admit, I haven't seen any special philosophy and profound meaning for the time being, and some scenes in the middle were ignored by me fast-forwarding. Although some of the scenes were spectacular and intense, the disappointment at the inferiority of people was greater than the sensuality.
Gossip: I thought Master Ku had used a little more force. There is a tradition of group sex among wealthy elites in Europe, dating back to ancient Roman times. And since then, the sense of religious ritual has gradually increased, or it can be said that there are also group pornography in some religious rituals since then. This is not surprising, in the context of the separation of politics and religion, the religious and powerful elites have me in you and you in me. This kind of group sex scene with a sense of religious ritual is also described in Dan Brown's novel "The Da Vinci Code". Naturally, this tradition was also brought to America. Europe and the United States are like this, but not necessarily in Asia and Africa. It's the same everywhere. After conquering wealth and wisdom, what should be more exciting for the elites of wealth and wisdom? Can only step on people. This kind of scene in the movie opened my eyes, but also made me feel that such a heavy scene description is hypocritical in this film. Too much ink is unnecessary.
Digression: Seeing the demonic reception at the front desk of the hotel, I thought that Alan Cumming in more than ten years would probably thank the character Eli in The good wife for giving him the opportunity to take off his face and roll over.
Details: Liang Tang was followed by people on the street in the middle of the night. She stopped at the newsstand in the middle of the street and picked up a newspaper. The "Lucky" in the news headline with black font on the newspaper jumped into my eyes first. Luckily for Bill, a phone call from his wife, Alice, at the most appropriate time allowed him to return to the door at the HIV-positive dating girl who took the initiative to conceive, preventing him from making a one-night mistake and a life-long mistake. In fact, his invitation to the social girl was directly due to the psychological revenge for his wife's ideological derailment.
At the end, Bill expresses his love to Alice and wants to love his wife forever. What did Alice say? "Don't say forever, I'm afraid of the word." What happened? There is really no forever between Liang Tang and Nicole.
The Chinese translation of the film is straightforward and apt. "Precept" is infinitely higher than the "world" realm.
Three stars for the movie, and one more star for Nicole Kidman, who was like a tulip at that time, so beautiful.

Eyes Wide Shut quotes

  • Victor Ziegler: Bill, I... I know what happened to you last night. And I know what's been going on since. And I think you just might have got the wrong idea about one or two things.

    Dr. Bill Harford: [feigning ignorance] I'm sorry Victor, but... what the hell are you talking about?

    Victor Ziegler: Please, Bill... no games. I was there. At the house. "The house". I saw you, Bill. I saw everything.

  • Victor Ziegler: Bill, I don't think you realize how much trouble you got yourself into last night just by going over there. Who do you think those people were? Those were not just some ordinary people. If I told you their names... no, I'm not going to tell you their names... but if I did, I don't think you'd sleep so well at night.
