‘Eye Wide shut’,
Firstly, I love
the way that Stanley Kubrick uses the camera to shoot continually. (Without
Cut) The best example would be the first screen where Bill and Alice were
dressing up at their home. What I trying to say is the camera was following
Bill (Tom cruise) to everywhere in his house. At this moment, we can see the
space of each room without Cut and understand the movement of the character. I
can see that he also use this technic with his other films. I think it is a
good idea of how he challenges the space to review to audience.
Secondly, I
like the store of one night, one night that could change Bill’s mind and his
worried. The house where he put the mask on, reminded me a lot of alien film
because when alien is on the earth, humans think that there are alien. But if
human go to their place such as the Mars, I believe human is alien for them. So
Bill wasn’t an alien before he removed his mask. It is like you are revealing
your secret.
