Dunno LW, I always though the joke was on us.

BTW, I seem to remember you thinking it sucked almost as bad as I still do.

What changed your mind? I've been seeing you gradually start to praise the film.

Yeah, they just can't come to grips with the concept that it really ain't "All about them". And ya know, another thing that really bugs me is why do they never remember to lift the commode seat when they're done?

OMG timber, I used those exact same words just a second ago on the phone!

The lady was saying that this is not a new idea and that she has been approached about this many times.

I told her that it was soo not all about her and that the universe did not revolve around her.

She says it does and that I just ahven't noticed.

Sigh

I am still searching for deep spiritual women who would like to join.

I'm thinking of eliminating the tithe altogether.

There are things I like about "Eyes Wide Shut" and thing I don't like. It's difficult to reconcile and I find myself rewatching it in some strange fascination (it comes on cable fairly regularly). I think the color gave it an unwanted glossiness -- and Kubrick may be the only other director other than Welles who could give black-and-white such incredible impact (see "The Killing," and "Paths of Glory," not to mention "Dr. Strangelove"). I would have also like to have seen "Full Metal Jacket" as a black-and-white film -- the color glaringly gave away the reproduced Vietnamese villages.

Kubricks worst film is better than 80% of the junk committed to film, so what does that say? We expected more of him -- he was getting old and turned AI over to Spielberg who did a reasonably good job except for the maudlin sentimentality at the end. Kubrick would have left one guessing. I think the chemistry between the two leads (you know, them!) was rather sour -- perhaps a predilection of things to come (sic).
You wanted them to seperate after the film ended. A curious change of events and circumstances, indeed. It sure didn't define relationships -- it only complicated them. (Hey, I guess I should know). Patronize me, I'm crying out here! Laughing
