Eyes Wide Shut
The downside to a sexually active married couple getting divorced is they have to divvy up their sex toys.
Something the struggling twosome in this drama might want to start considering.
Dr. Bill Harford (Tom Cruise) and his wife Alice (Nicole Kidman) make a desirable duo. But where she keeps other men at bay, the good doctor doesn't do the same with his admirers.
In fact, he goes so far as to get himself involved in an exclusive masquerade where powerful people are rumoured to participant in sexual rituals.
Unceremoniously unmasked, Dr. Harford is expelled from the secret gathering and warned to stay away - but Bill cannot abide.
Meanwhile, Alice's dreams involving multiple partners increase.
Stanley Kubrick's cunning dissertation on infidelity, this, his final film, has an air of mystery about it that lends magically to its more erotic elements.
Furthermore, orgies are only fun when women show up.
