Comment on Eyes Wide Shut: Hidden in plain sightparent

I hated it on first watch, when it came out, due to expecting something different. Now I absolutely love it. I get why people don’t like it, like how Tom Cruise goes around almost but never actually having sex, the movie always hints at a satisfying wrap up but never delivers it, which is totally intentional. It works with many different interpretations, you can read it through cultural, psychological, and probably other lenses. Still I’m wary of talking about it since it’s probably too effective at portraying a paranoid mindset.
