Just prior to the new millennium, Kubrick closed out his one-of-a-kind career with this open-ended adaptation of Traumnovelle, a relatively obscure Austrian novella by Arthur Schnitzler whose psychosexual misadventures Kubrick cleverly relocates from early 20th century Vienna to contemporary New York City. Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman play Bill and Alice Harford, married Manhattanites who experience a Yuletide marital crisis after Alice’s admission of an adulterous dream propels Bill to his own dark night of the soul.
