and the other Wednesday-morning desk worker and I
are preparing to search for names, check mailbox
numbers, sort the mail, and place it into

fear and anxiety in the viewer. They can be
understood as painting a mosaic of symbolism in

storys framework, causing the viewer to lose his
secure sense of balance during the progression of
the plot. Eyes Wide Shut is not a tale of terror
nor one of mystery...

manners: directly, and through the use of symbols
and commentary. T...
