The Spirit of Christmas in "Eyes Wide Shut"
'Tis the season for nutcracking.
Paganism
Secret societies, excellent teeth, "Only the best people."
Tolerance
Vampirism
The statues upstairs.
"I'm a doctor."
Christmas is a fairy tale, like The Wizard of Oz or the Hippocratic Oath.
In every house where I come I will enter only for the good of my patients, keeping myself far from all intentional ill-doing and all seduction and especially from the pleasures of love with women or with men, be they free or slaves.
"I'm a doctor."
X-mas in Hell?
...with Santa's Little Helper?
More statues, a whole world of statues.
"I'm a doctor."
Time for "Little Tommy's" presents.
Hmmmmnnnnnnnnnnnnn.
"I want my mommy!"
