Without Tom Cruise, another actor could have taken on the role of Alice in Stanley Kubrick‘s 1999 erotic thriller “Eyes Wide Shut.
As a cinephile, I can’t help but share an intriguing behind-the-scenes tidbit from my encounter with a renowned director for our last joint project. I proposed to him that my then-spouse, the talented Nicole Kidman, embody the free-spirited Alice Harford, while I took on the role of the repressed New York socialite, Bill Harford.
I traveled to his home and touched down in his backyard. The day before, I had gone over the script, and on that day, we engaged in extensive conversation about it. Given my familiarity with all of his films, Cruise stated, our encounter was primarily about getting to know one another. During this time, I proposed Nicole for the part [of Alice] because, as a well-known actress, she’s exceptionally talented.
In response, Cruise emphasized his strong commitment towards the production of “Eyes Wide Shut,” assuring Kubrick, “We’ll do whatever it takes to bring this film to life.
As a movie critic, I found myself immersed in the intriguing world of Christopher McQuarrie’s latest masterpiece. This film chronicles my journey as Tom Cruise’s character, Bill Harford – a complex New York physician who straddles the line between arrogance and apprehension. When my wife, Alice, confesses her feelings of dissatisfaction in our marriage, I am compelled to delve into the enigmatic underbelly of Manhattan’s darkest corners.
Though spectators might have drawn comparisons between the on-screen marriage of Bill and Alice to the actual relationship of Cruise and Kidman, Kidman herself clarified to The New York Times in 2020 that their real-life bond bore no resemblance to their “Eyes Wide Shut” characters’.
What she stated aligns with a certain perspective, but I personally didn’t view it that way. We, indeed, had a blissful marriage.
