- If you didn’t know that Stanley Kubrick’s filmic masterpiece Eyes Wide Shut was full of hidden symbolism then you’ve come to the right place. Beyond the Christmas glint, past the sex lives and the money of the power elite that it portrays. Here you’ll find it all! Secret meanings that include alleged references to the Freemasons, Illuminati, Secret CIA projects, the Church of Satan and many more symbols of secretive organisations. Stanley Kubrick, Nicole Kidman and Tom Cruise share with us the perfect film for all lovers of conspiracy theories and those interested in the social psychology that it shares.
I realy like, its great ! And for the shot with Alice/Kidman and Bugs Bunny on the TV ... I think now, Bugs Bunny is the symbol of Warner Bros. And i see recantly on a Leon Vitali (REP) interview, i say Warner put a Bugs Bunny logo in every letters from the production. :- ) And Stanley hate that !
That's all really interesting info. Thank you for enlightening me about the additional Bugs Bunny connection!
If i remenber, this detail is on "Filmworker" the 2018 documentary about Leon Vitali (rep)

This was one of the best hidden symbol reviews Ive found on CZcams.
Thanks MW99. Comments like yours are a great motivator to continue with this.
I made this comment elsewhere once before, thought I would repeat it here. At the start of the movie we see Alice undressing then it goes to the opening credits before showing us an establishing shot from the street and then back to the apartment where Alice and Bill are preparing to leave for the party. We assume that the first shot is Alice getting ready for the party but if you look closely at the layout of the room she is in, it's different the second time we see it. Initially there are a pair of rackets in the corner and other items that are not there the second time. 5 minutes later at the party Ziegler mentions his serve to Bill. Is Kubrick subtlety implying some connection between Ziegler and Alice with the rackets, is it just a continuity error or something else? At the party Alice asks Bill if he knows why they get invited to the event every year and Bill says it's what you get for making house calls. Alice scoffs at his explanation but says nothing else, possibly hinting that there is another reason. I have no theory, just found it interesting.
Very interesting! I'd always assumed that the first shot of Alice was complimentary to Bill as they both dress for the party but after your comments, looking at the cut again, it's clear that she's undressing and not dressing. It could be argued that she's just changing her mind about what to wear to the party but you would think that as an opening shot it should carry some significant weight to it and now that I see the tennis rackets, I'm thinking that there's much more to it than as a simple scene setter. Are we writing too much into it? Only Nicole could probably shed any light on the inclusion of this shot. So who's getting in touch with her, you or me? :)
This is the darkest stuff there can be, the details and the true meaning behind a creation. Really good stuff, love to learn about the art in a movie!! Would be SOoo interested in seeing more Easter egg threads like this 😅 very well done 🖼️
Thanks Kendra! If only there were more Stanley Kubrick's out there then I'd have a lot more topics to cover. But I'm working in it. I'll have some new material soon.
I like how they all had the exact same Christmas decorations, like they all got a memo that these are the ones Bill has at his house.
Well spotted Angel. I missed that one.
This is how it really is in Hollywood and all the politicians
Are you speaking from experience Lindsay? Anything more you can add?
@@thedarksidepress defending hollywood and politicans a little too hard
@@blocco973 no it’s just foolish to state it with utmost certainty. I lean towards there being truth within the movie but we can’t know for certain which is what makes it a theory.
I've been threatened for revealing I used to be in a secret society. Although it certainly wasn't the same as the one in EWS, there were similarities--including blindfolds, masks, chants, and ancient symbolism. Of course, it was also all Male.
Stanley Kubrick started out as a photography and documentary maker. His need to include realism in his films tells me that he wouldn't have just made up his secret society and its rituals. Rather, he based it, at least in part, on information that he had been given or was privy to. So I'm not surprised by your comment and if you do ever decide to reveal secrets, please do come to me first ;)
This video was fantastic! You spoke about things in this film I didn't notice before. Extremely well done and I learnt a lot! Thanks
Thank you Issy. I'm pleased that you got something out of it.
Check out the tree in the prostitutes apart both times bill enters. The tree is all f'd up the second time. Bill looks and says nothing but the first time he was like "nice tree"
The Christmas tree is a big clue, wouldn't you say?
Tom Cruise/Bill attended these power elite parties but he was never more than the house doctor. Kubrick did the same but he was never more than the in-house filmmaker.
Speculation surely @romanclay1913 but no smoke without fire I would agree. If you do know of any factual sources though please do let me know.
Look for all the circles and spheres.
3:08 is a quote from Lord Henry in The Picture of Dorian Gray.
Fascinating. Thanks for sharing Aqua!
I'm from Brazil, great outlook of this masterpiece! Thank you!
I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Love it! Great video.
Glad you enjoyed it!😊
Awesome video
Pleased you enjoyed it! @cowboywaingro7259
Of course the mask on the bed in the end, means that Nicole Kidman was one of the mind programmed temple prostitutes, who was also at the elite ball.
She goes into hypnotic disassociation at the end of the film. Really brilliant video! Way above average for You Tube
Thank you David! You may well be right about Nicole but Kubrick, as always, leaves it ambiguous. Perhaps the mask was left on the bed by someone else, as a warning?
So, you're telling me you think that's a coincidence? Kubrick passing in 1999..... 666 days before 1/1/2001, an ode to his most acclaimed film. If so, then you sir, have eyes that are wide shut!
I never said that LX UAE's. Jack Daniels made that claim in the comments. I merely credited them for the inventive hypothesis.
@@thedarksidepress *** I didn't say you said that***. I'm referring to 10:28, and your conclusion in general; clearly, if you think the idea of Kubrick being killed/sacrificed is ridiculous, then you implicitly believe him dying 666 days before 2001 is a coincidence. You completely misinterpreted my comment, just as you misinterpret this film, and it's allusions. Eyes wide shut!
If you think for 2 seconds you’ll see why this is such a silly comment
Great video; deserves more appreciation
Glad you think so Lyle!
Awesome video. EWS is fascinating.
It really is! And thank you @gabrielvidro
Love your video, I watched the movie for the first time weeks ago and I ended up watching 3x in a row because I became obsessed with it.
Never observed the Eye right after Bill go home after the party, thats was very cool, maybe hes beeing observed by now?
Let me point some things that I found interesting in the movie so we can chat about it.
-Milich: whats the odd of the most characteristic character in the movie being named almost exactly as the demon these groupes worship? Even the 2 vowels being the same: Moloch.
Funny thing, Moloch was a "Entity" that people, in a ritual, danced (first party), had sex (second party) and throws their babies in the fire for the this "God", there is a statue of him, they ignite inside of his sculpiture body to do that.
Moloch is the entity that Alex Jones records in Bohemian Grove, the giant Owl statue, and after that, confronts every politician that was there.
Besides the name, interesting things: Bill never payed Milich, after Milich offers his "children", the scene cuts, we cant know if Bill accepted, in this same scene, we can observe a scar in Milich forehead, looking exactly a Horn coming out of it, whats the chance?
Where the rainbow ends? Exactly where it shows, under the rainbow, exactly where it ends? In a room where two guys are with a children.
The two models from the first party calls Bill there and he never rejected, only said to be continued.
Bill never asks for a shoe, why he returns Milich a pair?
Bill recommending a trichologist to Moloch, the child saying on Bill ears and the teatral Moloch lines and gestures are all hints, just dont know how.
Maybe the act of renting clothes and masks for the ritual is a contract itself with Moloch. I really dont know.
Funny thing, in freemason, "DeMolay" is for boys and "Rainbow" is for 11-21y girls.
-The second party: Why would top 0,001% rich people do tremendous job to f**k normal woman prostitutes? Considering these people are carrying theirs wifes to the party as the first one, they got not to hide, they dont need this great ritual and congregation to f**k normal woman. Whats the chance of these women representing childs? if you watch all the second party take and imagine all these woman being childs this shit becomes very stressful and mindblowing.
-The first party: Well, this one is a charade for me, but has clearly a lot of tips. When Bill is dancing with Alice and they separate from each other. Bill goes with Nick and Alice goes to the other salon. But in this separation scene exactly, the couple dancing right behind Bill and Alice has a woman with a red cape, when the scene cuts with Alice alone picking a glass of Alcoohol in the corridor, the woman with the man is completely different, the clothes too, the new woman is wearing black, but the man is the same, I rewatched several times the first party to see that, maybe all the people there is in the second party or represents something.
-Alice: very confusing, I cant say anything about, just make questions. What dreams of alice represents? Are they real? Are Alice in the party? How the hell the masks went to their bed with her?
-Helena: confusing too, in the last scene, Helena shows a barbie right besides her, kinda representing her as a doll in a box too, the last piece of scene of Helena is her going way with 2 man that was in the first party seated in front of the angel statue and stairs. Was she selled? Kidnapped?
I could be here talking for hours about the movie, but got exhauted typing. xD
The movie has definitely various layers of comprehension, you can watch and like the movie only seeing one or even all of it.
I see 3:
1. all being a marriage problem, where Bill suffers imagining his wife with another man and responding that he seeks other woman breaking his fidelity that Alice insists in maintein saying various times to the Hungarian man: "I'm married".
2. all being a capitalism problem, where Bill is a middle class man and exerces his power with lower people with his money and doctor documents and gets exerced by "superior" people by getting called and deceived during all movie.
3. all being a ritual/demon/p3do thing, where Bill is being started or being a victim.
Sorry for writing a book, and sorry for the english, Im brazillian =P
Will be happy to chat with you guys about it.
Heading down the Stanley Kubrick rabbit hole is a dangerous path Ticiano. Fans have been known to go completely mad analysing his other masterpiece, The Shining, and I try to stick to known facts rather than speculation but having said that... I agree that there's much more going on with the character Milich than that which made it into the final film. There's definitely a devil-like temptation aspect to him but I wouldn't get too wrapped up in the name. My theory is that he just took the name from a painter that his wife was likely familiar with. The paintings is Bill and Alice's apartment were real works created by Kubrick's wife and she often painted landscapes, which share some similarity in style with the Polish painter Adolf Abram Milich. Also, Milich's daughter is played by Leelee Sobieski, her father Jean Sobieski was an actor/painter who has Polish ancestry. Sobieski being a very royal name in Polish circles. Do you see the rabbit hole? Maybe Kubrick was playing out a great joke, maybe it's all just coincidence. BTW I think you're right on the money when you say that the first party is really the masquerade or masked party. I don't think I mentioned in the video, but I think a another key motive is about mirrors. Just take a look at the very first scene in the film, Bill and Alice are dressing and mirroring each other. If there's anything else you spot, do let me know. I feel a follow-up video coming on. And thanks for your insights.
The way Alice undress coming back from the party (black dress) same as the girls in the cult party with red cloak guy (same as Santa Claus).
Alice was the villain and for me she was at the party. She is the one with eyes wide open and dumb Bill kissing her with “eyes wide shut”.
fantastic and probably the best video on the occult subtext on EWS
Thank you Jimi. I'm pleased that you thought I covered the occult aspects well.
Amazing and very intelligent analysis.
Thank you for saying!
Great analysis!!!
Thank you Lars. I'm pleased that you liked it!
Kubrick died 666 days before January 1, 2001. Another oddity.
Kudos to you for working that one out Jack!
@@thedarksidepress I didn't.

THANKS SO MUCH FOR THE INSIGHT, I FOUND IT INTRIGUING
Glad you enjoyed it!
They cut out a hour of the final cut because in the real masonic ritual there is blood everywhere
Wow! I'd love to know where you found that out Tito. Any chance you could share?
Maybe the carpet they’re doing the ritual on didn’t start off red…
1:51 yeah there are doctor bill? doctor/dollar bill
Milich is santa
Everyone towers over Tom.
Interesantisimo
Glad you found it interesting.
3:29
?
I see no all seeing eye projected anywhere
czcams.com/video/psEtc2OVQN4/video.html The all-seeing eye is projected onto Tom's back as he's walking.
The masks is intbecause I have heard that celebrities wear masks ultra realistic masks to play other actors like 1 actor is a base character and 2 other side characters so for example Morgan freeman was also Jimi hendrix and also wiz khalifa wearing a hyper realistic mask
Narrator, are you Paul Bettany? 👀
Umm... Is that you Johnny Depp? :)
01:24 This awful scratch...Could you please place a warning at the beginning of the video, that you intend to use sounds, that might be hurting the listener ? Like warning, when stroboscopic or flash light is used.
Sorry to jar your senses there Ja Nein. I'll keep what you've said in mind for future videos.
Never heard a more curmudgeonly review of a must re-watch movie, EWS? Your video essay was only missing the "Bah Humbug" of a christmas character tossing rocks at children as they go wasseling by your bedroom widow. As for the eyes on his back, 1:35 it begins as a wide eye and then shuts. It is actually a camera flare from the lamp in front of bill that is shinning on the camera lens. But Kubric was a mad hatter at illumination (Barry Lindon) so for him to allow that glare to stay in the film, it was intentionally placed there Kubric is meticulous. You missed that Bill is in Wonderland he is the lizard that attempts to remove Alice from the white rabbit's house that she is as if wearing as a costume.
I'm a GenXer. We're all cynical b'stards :)
Over interpreting a movie
Perhaps but if ever there was a film director worthy of greater criticism, it has to be Stanley Kubrick. Can you name another director who put so much effort into their films?
Kubrick che roba ragazzi...mistico no umorista che gira in ciabatte per la sua cucina ma un Grande
Kubrick è sicuramente uno dei grandi Alba!
