> So I guess that means the infamous "Eyes Wide Shut" (the movie had been in production for longer than any other, effectively keeping Tom Cruise out of the movie-making circuit for over a year; it wrapped only recently) will be his last film. Anyone know how much work was left to be done on that before its release?

I learned some more information. Apparently, Kubrick *had* wrapped "Eyes Wide Shut" before he died. It wouldn't surprise me if he would have died sooner except the thought that some other schmuck would have to finish his movie and screw it all up kept him alive by his sheer determination.
