The Stanley Kubrick Appreciation Society — NYC

Amazon: "Michel Chion's extraordinary study of Eyes Wide Shut makes the case that it is one of Kubrick's masterpieces and a fitting testament. To appreciate this, though, it is necessary to look at what happens on the screen without bringing preconceptions to bear. The film needs to be taken at face value. Looked at this way, Eyes Wide Shut reveals itself to be a deeply moving film about characters who are not so different from real people, a film about life in which questions of meaning and motive lose their value."

We read some of this book back in January 2025, and are picking it back up again now. The actual chapter we are starting at will be given in a comment below; chapter quoted/illustrated in the Event Title is approximate.

Unless you have been with us before, attendees who arrive late may not be admitted, because we won't have time to vet you.
