Description de l'ouvrage :
Twenty years since its release, Stanley Kubrick's Eyes Wide Shut remains a complex, visually arresting film about domesticity, sexual disturbance, and dreams. It was on the director's mind for some 50 years before he finally put it into production. Using the Stanley Kubrick Archive at the University of the Arts, London, and interviews with participants in the production, the authors create an archeology of the film that traces the progress of the film from its origins to its completion, reception, and afterlife. The book is also an appreciation of this enigmatic work and its equally enigmatic creator.

Revue de Presse :
"The book is an immaculately researched account of the film's creation..." -- Christopher Schobert, The Film Stage

"With Eyes Wide Shut: Stanley Kubrick and the Making of His Final Film, we finally have the great book this film deserves ... Every chapter in this book is valuable to the Kubrick scholar or the casual cinephile; thoughtful yet readable throughout, it hits that golden spot of being a scholarly page-turner." -- Whitlock & Pope

"I'm not sure if it will spur Eyes Wide Shut haters to reevaluate the film, but Eyes Wide Shut: Stanley Kubrick and the Making of His Final Film will give them some fresh insight into the seemingly impenetrable mind of Stanley Kubrick." -- Mike Segretto, Psychobabble

"Two leading Kubrick scholars have joined forces for this hugely impressive study of the filmmaker's final masterpiece. Examining the film from every conceivable angle, they offer unique insights into its form and themes - and also, more broadly, into Kubrick's working methods, his personality and his place in 20th century culture." -- Peter Krämer, author of BFI Film Classics on Dr. Strangelove and 2001: A Space Odyssey, and co-editor of Stanley Kubrick: New Perspectives

"Through obsessive research and details within details worthy of the man they chronicle in Eyes Wide Shut: Stanley Kubrick and the Making of his Final Film, film scholars Robert P. Kolker and Nathan Abrams prove decidedly that the last movie of a great film director not only sums up their career but defines and illuminates it with clarity. This is a must-read for admirers of Stanley Kubrick and his work and the cinema itself." -- Vincent LoBrutto, author of Stanley Kubrick: A Biography

"As recounted in a new book by Robert Kolker and Nathan Abrams (an essential resource for anyone interested in the film's development and production), Eyes Wide Shut was a project that Kubrick had been seriously contemplating for decades." -- MidCenturyCinema

"Loved it. I thought I knew everything about Eyes Wide Shut but discovered much more. I think it's the most significant book on a single film since Stephen Bach's Final Cut ." -- Matt Thorne, Senior Lecturer in Creative Writing, Brunel University London
