Description
David and Tamler mask up and wander through the audio and visual orgy of Stanley Kubrick's final masterpiece Eyes Wide Shut. What is this movie really about? Dreams? Wealth and power? Marriage? Jealousy? Female sexuality? Masculinity issues? The Illuminati? Pedophilia? Sex cults? Prostitution, both literal and figurative? Missing out, always on the outside looking in? Why does Tom Cruise repeat everything? Why is Nicole Kidman such a lightweight? Why can't a successful Upper West Side couple get better weed? We explore all these themes and more in a film that raises so many more questions than it answers.
Plus, a study on masturbation, gender, and sexual dissatisfaction – right in our wheelhouse, or is it?
