There was a discussion on iMDb about this and I think the consensus was she said something like "I'll see you at the party" or something pertaining to the orgy party he goes too. Doesn't make much sense since she was "entertaining" the 2 Asian guys before being caught, and it would be kind of late for her to get there on time for the ceremony Cruise walked in on, but that's Kubrick for ya.

That's something, at least. Thank you!!!

BUMP! Please check dates before posting.

I wanted to discuss this without making a new thread. Couldnt find a recent one and since we apparently have the ability to bump really old threads, I went ahead and did it.

For the first time I finally watched the edited and unedited versions side by side, using Netflix for the R-rated, and Media Player for the original. (The orgy scene is obviously what I'm talking about.)
Have to say I am amazed at the digital film editing they had back in 1999. They must have used the same team that did The Matrix. The inserted people look totally natural and you have to watch the two versions together to know who's who.

Of course, when you consider that someone used digital ink and paint to remove wires in Howard the Duck (1986) I guess its not that impressive.

Eyes Wide Shut doesnt even get a mention, indicating digital correction of many items was already a common thing.
I also heard the reason Hudson Hawk was so ridiculously expensive was Bruce Willis didnt like his hairline in the movie and every single frame of him had to have hair digitally added. That came out years earlier.

That is all. Enjoy.

It's a pile with all of that.

I'm a film buff. I really enjoy 2001 and the first act of Full Metal Jacket, but Kubrick's remaining catalog is garbage.

You can't a film buff with that statement because Paths of Glory is like the best psychological war film ever (if you liked FMJ first act)

I swear one of my friends know literally every actor ever. It is creepy we'll all be hanging around drinking beers, some random movie will come up, and all we have to do is look at him and he'll tell you they actor's name and other info.... it's so weird, but funny at the same time.

I know too many for my own good, but so do most people who regularly watch TV and movies. They're practically "royalty" in the West, and they have separate shows just to update you on what they're doing.

Anyways, I've seen a large portion of 'A Clockwork Orange', but still can't force myself to see 'Eyes Wide Shut'. Hell, I've even seen 'Vanilla Sky'.
