(1999/color/159 min.) Scr: Stanley Kubrick, Frederic Raphael, based on a novella by Arthur Schnitzler; dir: Stanley Kubrick; w/ Nicole Kidman, Tom Cruise, Sydney Pollack.
"The man who could create a whole new universe with each undertaking chose the bedroom as the last frontier, to the point where prolonged conjugal conversations mark the dramatic high points in a long, winding, and surreal story. In Arthur Schnitzler's 'Dream Story,' a 1926 Viennese novella that is stark and haunting, a doctor and his wife are teased apart by sexual jealousy as the husband is drawn into 'a wild, shadowlike succession of gloomy and lascivious adventures, all without an end.' Part of the film's sustained tension comes from the slow, ribbonlike way in which these episodes unfold; part of it comes from the viewer's complete uncertainty about what will happen next . . . As in dreams, odd details stand out in bold relief . . . and [Stanley] Kubrick deploys certain colors, most notably red and blue. The conjugal life is bathed in red, at first, and death and danger in blue-until the film begins switching and juxtaposing them incessantly to create underlying tension . . . The film's subliminal manipulation is already at work."—Janet Maslin, The New York Times
