How Far Was It From 'Eyes Wide Shut' to Epstein's Island?

Twenty-five years after the release of Stanley Kubrick’s 'Eyes Wide Shut', the film’s exploration of elite depravity remains relevant as revelations about Jeffrey Epstein’s sex island unfold. The movie, though ponderous, delves into themes of desire, male insecurity, and the dangerous implications of power. However, its narrative is often obscured by digressions, making it hard to fully engage with the characters’ frustrations and erotic experiences.
