why Stanley Kubrick died shortly after the film was out (Reply to this comment)
by filmbuff88
There was only one film with the same plot that preceeded this film and it was Rosemary's Baby by Roman Polanski. Although the setting moved up to the sub-urbs from Upper West Side NY in Polanski, it is all about very rich and influential people who controls the country and have residences in New York. The striking similiarities about both films is that after Rosemary's Baby was out in the theaters, Charles Manson and his company of satanists came into Polanski's mansion and murdered everybody there including Sharon Tate and with her baby inside of her. Luckily Polanski was in Europe filming with Kinski in "Tess of..." Both films depicts the evil rituals and practices of the very rich and influential people who controls the country and perhaps they don't want something that blows their cover even if only in films. The Film itself is a monumental Masterpiece when excellent people come together to make this as a perfect landmark, where the director has to sacrifice his life over Art and Truth and the Actors themselves have to sacrifice their real life as a married couple over Art and Truth to indulge in their fantasies as was imposed in the film. I mean, when Cruise decided that the Film stands much greater than their lives as couples, when he let Kidmann do the real sex scene with another man on film, he already decided that he was willing to give up his wife for the sake of the Film Industry, the Impact to the audiences for generations to come and that they agreed to. I have seen the Interviews on both actors and they both loved the Director dearly especially when asked what was their reaction after hearing he died both of them cried, I think that not only did they missed him and loved him they just knew underneath that he was murdered and that they could not do anything about this andthey have to accept the fact that they are ruled by very powerful people.
