Kubrick's Kid Rebuffs Eyes Wide Shut Conspiracy Theory - Newser

Theory Briefing

  • Kubrick's daughter publicly labels the claim that Warner Bros. secretly changed Eyes Wide Shut a conspiracy theory, not established fact.
  • The only edit she says she knew of was CGI added to obscure nudity and secure a less restrictive rating.
  • Fans have long suspected deeper cuts were made after Kubrick's death, just days before the film's release.
  • Her firsthand account challenges the theory but stops short of a full accounting of every editorial decision made.
