Stanley Kubrick left a unique and unforgettable mark on cinema history with his films. Eyes Wide Shut, which was his final film before he passed away in 1999, is one of these remarkable works.
Starring Nicole Kidman and Tom Cruise, and released 25 years ago, the film is considered a testament to Kubrick's directorial skills and cinematic genius.
Eyes Wide Shut explores themes such as marriage, sexuality, fidelity, and mystery, and is still highly regarded today, thanks to the outstanding performances of Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman, and Kubrick's meticulous direction.
Nicole Kidman, who played the character Alice Harford in the film, recently gave an interview to the Los Angeles Times, sharing her memories of the film's process.
According to the Independent, in her talk, Nicole Kidman said,
'Working with Stanley Kubrick was amazing. During the shoots, he would tell us, 'Don’t put me on a pedestal.' That was his number one rule. He didn’t want flattery. He encouraged us to express our own ideas. Kubrick had a positive impact on my performance. He trusted me to portray Alice. He discovered my mischievousness and provocative nature. I think that’s why he chose me. Once he trusted me, it was just up to me to trust myself as well. Given that, I added my courage to the character of Alice.'
