Nicole Kidman as Alice Harford looking up at the camera in Eyes Wide Shut
Stanley Kubrick is the filmmaker behind some of the most celebrated and influential films ever made, but one of his most polarizing films is easily 1999's Eyes Wide Shut. The notorious erotic thriller starring Nicole Kidman and Tom Cruise divided critics and audiences, being the subject of mass controversy and censorship when it was first released due to its graphic sexual content.
Starting October 1st, Eyes Wide Shut will be available to stream on the NBCUniversal-backed streaming platform of Peacock. The Stanley Kubrick film will be joining a stellar October line-up of classic movies that will be hitting Peacock that month. Also in the mix are Francis Ford Coppola's extremely faithful vampire adaptation of Bram Stoker's Dracula, the cult-classic Star Trek parody Galaxy Quest, and Tim Burton's spooky and scary reimagining of Sleepy Hollow.
What is 'Eyes Wide Shut' About? Close Eyes Wide Shut tells the story of a New York-based doctor named William Harfrod and his partner Alice Harford , who have a harmless-yet-unexciting romantic life. Despite genuinely caring for her husband, Alice feels unfulfilled in her sexual desires and eventually shares her frustrations with her husband.
Everything about Eyes Wide Shut from its development to its release is shrouded in controversy. The film had a shoot that lasted over a year, at about 400 days, and things got even more complicated for the film after Stanley Kubrick passed away before the film's release.
