Pulp Fiction Co-Writer Says Stanley Kubrick’s Original Script for ‘Eyes Wide Shut’ Was About a Discovery of an Elite Pedo Ring
EXCERPT:
AVARY: “Like, that scene where he sees the prostitute who's died, he's at the morgue and was looking at her, and he’s like leaning over her, it’s a bed for narration. There’s this whole thing. What they do instead, because they couldn’t say that Kubrick finished the movie because they hadn’t done the recording of the narrator yet, and so maybe they just kind of clutched it together, except there’s an entire thread that’s kind of been squashed in that film, and that’s the two men that are throughout the movie, that are constantly in the background of the film, who eventually, in the final shots of the film, you see, like, Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman in that final scene in the toy store, when she’s looking at 'The Rosemary Baby' bassinet, which is totally Kubrick saying something, and they never take their eyes off their daughter until the moment they take their eyes off and the final line of the movie is coming up. You see those two guys walking off with the daughter. They’re taking her away. They’ve given their daughter to the pedo cult. That’s what’s happened at the end of the movie. And there’s an incident where -- when they first screened the movie in England, people who were outside apparent — this is all second-hand, by the way — there were people who were outside of the theater who could hear, inside the theater, Kubrick yelling at all the executives and saying, 'It's my movie! You can’t cut it! You can't f**king cut my film!' A big argument going on. Then he dies like four days later."
