The last film in a director’s filmography is seldom the best. That applies even to the greatest among the film makers, and Stanley Kubrick wasn’t an exception.

Stanley Kubrick is a giant among filmmakers and cinema fans for his excruciating attention to detail, the stylized performances he evokes, and the sheer scope of outrageously ambitious projects like 2001: A Space Odyssey and Barry Lyndon . The director's 1999 film, Eyes Wide Shut , closed-out both the 20th century and Kubrick's career as the filmmaker died shortly after he'd finished his final cut of the movie. The…More
