A masterful movie about love, death, jealousy and relationships.

Rating: 10/10 (22 July 1999)

I saw this picture five days ago, and it still resonates. It's rated R, probably because of nudity and occasional naughty words, but the sexiest scenes (to me) were the G rated fully clothed and detailed flirtations which Nicole Kidman and Tom Cruise independently indulge in at the beginning of the film.
Kidman is simply sensational when she starts pulling apart some of Cruise's basic assumptions about their relationship, propelling Cruise into his all night adventure in which the prostitute, the costuming, the ritualistic orgy all lead to fear, some surprises, and perhaps a kind of reconciliation.

As usual in a Kubrick film, the music is perfect. A great film!
