Why watch this film?
Our suggestions
At a Christmas party hosted by wealthy, unconventional Victor Ziegler, provocative advances and innocent flirtations arouse suspicion as high-society physician Dr. William Harford and his sexy wife, Alice watch each other from a distance. Alone later, this seemingly perfect couple confront their intimate sexual fantasies - which don't include each other.
"Stanley Kubrick's last (and most controversial) film. Technically and visually flawless, with a story full of sexual appeal and mystery. Such a tumultuous production that it entered into the Guinness Book of Records as having the longest single continuous shooting period in movie history - 400 days. A lot is also theorized that Kubrick's death, just a few days after the completion of the film, was related to the themes denounced in the movie, referring to practices committed by Hollywood's high society."
