Tom Cruise’s 1999 movie turned a lot of heads when it was originally released. Directed by Stanley Kubrick in his final directorial role, the film explores a cult obsessed with s*x and the limits that rich people go to just to satisfy their cravings.
Being an erotic thriller, Eyes Wide Shut is now available to stream for free on Tubi. Of course, this movie is a must-watch just to see the brilliance of Stanley Kubrick. However, the film recently found its fame due to its uncanny resemblance to the Jeffrey Epstein saga that has been going on for some time.

Being a high coincidence, the plot of Eyes Wide Shut focuses on Nicole Kidman and Tom Cruise as a couple. Cruise portrays the role of Dr. William “Bill” Harford, who is shocked when his wife reveals that she contemplated cheating on him.
Cruise embarks on a night-long adventure and infiltrates a masked o*gy of a secret society. The movie showcases a dark nexus of money, secrecy, impunity, and male s*xual desire warped by institutional power, something that Jeffrey Epstein did.
Epstein’s victims were not rich girls who had willingly taken part in the o*gy. Instead, they were economically vulnerable women viewed as disposable, something that Eyes Wide Shut explores greatly.
Although the Epstein saga happened much later in history, people cannot ignore the uncanny coincidence that Eyes Wide Shut and the Jeffrey Epstein saga share.
Eyes Wide Shut: Should You Stream It Or Skip It?
The verdict for Eyes Wide Shut is quite clear in 2026: Stream it. The movie feels like a dream. It’s slow, hypnotic, and intentionally artificial. It’s a psychological study of marriage and ego.
Being a visually stunning film, the movie is loaded with symbolism and questions about whether we ever truly know the person we’re sleeping next to.
Asking the higher questions and showcasing what goes on behind the facades is something that Eyes Wide Shut excels at. With the Epstein saga continuing to reveal the people involved and the extent of the crimes, Eyes Wide Shut is just the perfect watch in 2026.
