Bill goes to a costume shop and offers the owner, Mr. Milich, a generous amount of money to rent a costume. In the shop, Milich catches his teenage daughter with two Japanese men and expresses outrage at their lack of decency. Bill takes a taxi to the country mansion mentioned by Nick.
He gives the password and discovers a sexual ritual is taking place. A woman warns him he is in terrible danger. A porter then takes him to the ritual room, where a disguised red-cloaked master of ceremonies confronts Bill. The masked woman who had tried to warn Bill intervenes and insists that she will redeem him. Bill is ushered from the mansion and warned not to tell anyone about what happened there.
Just before dawn, Bill arrives home guilty and confused. He finds Alice laughing loudly in her sleep and awakens her. While crying, she tells him of a troubling dream in which she was having sex with the naval officer and many other men, and laughing at the idea of Bill seeing her with them. Later that morning, Bill searches for Nick. At Nick's hotel, the desk clerk tells Bill that a bruised and frightened Nick checked out a few hours earlier after returning with two large, dangerous-looking men.
Bill goes to return the costume, but not the mask, which he has misplaced, and learns Milich has sold his daughter into prostitution. After reading a newspaper story about a beauty queen who died of a drug overdose, Bill views the body at the morgue and identifies it as Mandy.
Bill is summoned to Ziegler's house, where Ziegler discloses he was one of those involved with the ritual orgy, and identified Bill and his connection with Nick. Ziegler claims the warnings made against Bill by the society are only intended to scare him from speaking about the orgy. However, he implies the society is capable of acting on their threats. Bill asks about the death of Mandy, whom Ziegler has identified as the masked woman at the party who'd "sacrificed" herself to prevent Bill's punishment, and about the disappearance of Nick, the piano player.
Ziegler insists that Nick is safely back at his home in Seattle. Ziegler also says the "punishment" was a charade by the secret society to further frighten Bill, and it had nothing to do with Mandy's death; she was a hooker and addict and had died from another accidental drug overdose.

Bill does not know whether Ziegler is telling the truth about Nick's disappearance or Mandy's death. When he returns home, Bill finds the rented mask on his pillow next to his sleeping wife. He breaks down in tears and decides to tell Alice the whole truth of the past two days. The next morning, they go Christmas shopping with their daughter. Alice muses that they should be grateful that they have survived, that she loves him and there is something they must do as soon as possible, "Fuck.
While Stanley Kubrick was interested in making a film about sexual relations as early as , during production of Dr. Strangelove , [ citation needed ] the project only took off after he read Arthur Schnitzler's Dream Story in , when he was seeking a work to follow Kubrick got interested in adapting the story, and with the help of then-journalist Jay Cocks , bought the filming rights to the novel.
Arthur Schnitzler's novella Dream Story is set around Vienna shortly after the turn of the century. The main characters are a couple named Fridolin and Albertina; their home is a typical suburban middle-class home, not the film's posh urban apartment. Schnitzler himself, like the protagonist of this novel, lived in Vienna, was Jewish, and a medical doctor, though Schnitzler eventually abandoned medicine for writing. While Fridolin and Albertina, the protagonist couple of Dream Story , are sometimes implied to be Jewish , there is nothing in the novella which justifies this assumption, and neither Fridolin nor Albertina are typical Jewish names; whereas Nachtigall Nightingale is overtly identified as Jewish.
Kubrick himself of Jewish descent frequently removed references to the Jewishness of characters in the novels he adapted. The director added that Bill should be a " Harrison Ford -ish goy " though Ford's mother was Jewish , and created the surname of Harford as an allusion to the actor. In the film, Bill is taunted with homophobic slurs. In the novella, these boys are recognized to be members of an anti-Semitic college fraternity. The novella is set during the Carnival , when people often wear masks to parties.
The party that both husband and wife attend at the opening of the story is a Carnival Masquerade ball , whereas the film's story begins at Christmas time. In the novella, when his wife discloses a private sexual fantasy, he in turn admits one of his own of a girl in her mid to late teens , while in the film he is simply shocked.
The film's argument over whether he has fantasies over female patients and whether women have sexual fantasies is simply absent from the novella, where both husband and wife assume the other has fantasies. In the film, Bill's estrangement from Alice revolves around her confessing a recent fantasy to him; in the novella, both exchange fantasies, after which she declares that in her youth she could have easily married someone else, which is what precipitates their sense of estrangement.
In the novella, the husband long suspected that his patient Marion was infatuated with him, while in the film it is a complete surprise and he seems shocked. He is also more overwhelmed by the orgy in the film than in the novella. Fridolin is socially bolder but less sexual with the prostitute Mizzi in the novella, Domino in the film.
Fridolin is also conscious of looking old in the novella, though he hardly does in the film. In the novella, the party which is sparsely attended uses "Denmark" as the password for entrance; that is significant in that Albertina had her infatuation with her soldier in Denmark. The film's password is "Fidelio", from the Latin word for "faithful", and which is the title of Beethoven 's only opera Fidelio, or Married Love. In early drafts of the screenplay, the password was "Fidelio Rainbow".
Jonathan Rosenbaum noted that both passwords echo elements of one member of the couple's behaviour, though in opposite ways.
In the novella, the woman who "redeems" Fridolin at the party, saving him from punishment, is costumed as a nun, and most of the characters at the party are dressed as nuns or monks; Fridolin himself used a monk costume. This aspect was retained in the film's original screenplay, [14] but was deleted in the filmed version. In the novella, when the husband returns home, the wife's dream is an elaborate drama that concludes with him getting crucified in a village square after Fridolin refuses to separate from Albertina and become the paramour of the village princess, even though Albertina is now occupied with copulating with other men, and watches him "without pity".
By being faithful, Fridolin thus fails to save himself from execution in Albertina's dream, although he was apparently spared by the woman's "sacrifice" at the masked sex party. In both the novella and film, the wife states that the laugh in her sleep just before she woke was a laugh of scornful contempt for her husband; although awake, she states this matter-of-factly. The novella makes it clear that Fridolin at this point hates Albertina more than ever, thinking they are now lying together "like mortal enemies".
It has been argued that the dramatic climax of the novella is actually Albertina's dream, and the film has shifted the focus to Bill's visit to the secret society's orgy, whose content is more shocking in the film. The adaptation created a character with no counterpart in the novella: Ziegler, who represents both the high wealth and prestige to which Bill Harford aspires, and a connection between Bill's two worlds his regular life, and the secret society organizing the ball. Strangelove represents the worst of the American national security establishment, Charles Grady represents the worst of Jack Torrance in The Shining , and Clare Quilty represents the worst of Humbert Humbert in Lolita.
Ziegler's presence allows Kubrick to change the mechanics of the story in a few ways. Similarly, the dead woman whom Bill suspects of being the woman at the party who saved him is a baroness that he was acquainted with earlier, not a hooker at Ziegler's party. More significantly, in the film, Ziegler gives a commentary on the whole story to Bill, including an explanation that the party incident, where Bill is apprehended, threatened, and ultimately redeemed by the woman's sacrifice, was staged.
Whether this is to be believed or not, it is an exposition of Ziegler's view of the ways of the world as a member of the power elite. The novella explains why the husband's mask is on the pillow next to his sleeping wife, she having discovered it when it slipped out of his suitcase, and placing it there as a statement of understanding. This is left unexplained in the film and left to the viewer's interpretation.
After that meeting, the director awarded them the roles. Due to scheduling conflicts, both had to drop out [20] — first Keitel with Finding Graceland , [21] then Leigh with eXistenZ [22] — and they were replaced by Sydney Pollack and Marie Richardson in the final cut. Principal photography began in November Kubrick's perfectionism led to script pages being rewritten on the set, and most scenes requiring numerous takes.
The shoot went much longer than expected; Vinessa Shaw was initially contracted for two weeks but ended up working two months, [23] while Alan Cumming , who appears in one scene, was required to audition six times throughout the filming process. Given Kubrick's fear of flying , the entire film was shot in England. Kubrick's perfectionism went as far as sending workmen to Manhattan to measure street widths and note newspaper vending machine locations. Production was followed by a strong campaign of secrecy, helped by Kubrick always working with a short team on set.
Kubrick refused to use studio lighting, forcing Smith to use the available light sources visible in the shot, such as lamps and Christmas tree lights.
When this was not adequate, Smith used Chinese paper ball lamps to softly brighten the scene. The color was enhanced by push processing the film reels, which helped bring out the intensity of color. Kubrick's perfectionism led him to oversee every visual element that would appear in a given frame, from props and furniture to the color of walls and other objects. Costume designer Marit Allen explained that Kubrick felt they fit in that scene for being part of the imaginary world, and ended up "creat[ing] the impression of menace, but without exaggeration".
Many masks as used in the Venetian carnival were sent to London, and Kubrick separated who would wear each piece. Scared afraid woman with eyes wide open. Part of face, closeup.

Red-haired woman being shocked with something. Sparky Malarky , Mar 28, Thank you so much Sparky! I keep thinking of eyes wide open because there is a movie call "eyes wide shut". Sparky's suggestions are both good. The motif of "eyes wide open" is used in other senses too. It can indicate attentive alertness, or a reaction of surprise and shock. I think this is why "wide open" doesn't quite fit your scenario of lying in bed.
