Criterion is also releasing a new 1080p Blu-ray edition the same day, and it's also on sale for 30% off, dropping the price to $28.Arguably Kubrick's strangest--and certainly the most sexually explicit--film, Eyes Wide Shut was a major box office hit, but it proved to be too unsettling and weird for some critics and fans back in 1999. These days, though, many critics and fans alike consider Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman film to be a masterpiece. While it's only the second Kubrick 4K release from Criterion--Barry Lyndon became the first in July--nearly all of Kubrick's movies are now available on 4K Blu-ray from other distributors. Eyes Wide Shut: The Criterion Collection (4K Blu-ray) $35 (was $50) | Releases November 25 The 4K release of Eyes Wide Shut is a three-disc set with one 4K UHD disc and two 1080p Blu-ray discs. Like other Criterion releases, this version is designed to be as close as possible to Kubrick's thoroughly meticulous vision for how it should be presented. While the famed director passed away in 1999 less than a week after screening the final cut for Warner Bros., Criterion's restoration was supervised by the movie's director of photography, Larry Smith. Since the 1080p version is based on the 4K restoration, it should also be an improvement over the current Blu-ray edition.Notably, Criterion restored the international version--the aforementioned final cut--not the US theatrical edition, which was censored in order to attain an R rating.On a technical level, this release offers support for Dolby Vision HDR and DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 surround sound.For the bonus materials, new interviews have been filmed with Smith, photographer and second-unit director Lisa Leone, and Stanley Kubrick archivist Georgina Orgill.There are also archival extras from previous Blu-ray releases of Eyes Wide Shut, like interviews with the actors, a documentary examining the unfinished films of Kubrick, and more. All of these are available to watch on the bonus standard Blu-ray disc. The standard Blu-ray edition is a two-disc set with the same bonus features.Inside the display case you'll also find a booklet with a 1999 interview with Kubrick and actor Sydney Pollack as well as a new essay by author Megan Abbott.Eyes Wide Shut: The Criterion Collection Features4K digital restoration supervised by director of photography Larry Smith3-disc set: 4K Blu-ray & 2 standard Blu-raysDolby Vision HDRDTS-HD Master Audio 5.1New interviews with Larry Smith, second-unit director Lisa Leone, and Kubrick archivist Georgina OrgillArchival interview with Kubrick's wife Christiane KubrickNever Just a Dream: 2019 interviews with producer Jan Harlan, Kubrick's daughter Katharina Kubrick, and his personal assistant Anthony FrewinLost Kubrick: The Unfinished Films of Stanley KubrickKubrick Remembered: Interviews with Steven Spielberg and actors Todd Field and Leelee SobieskiKubrick’s 1998 acceptance speech for the Directors Guild of America’s D.W.
