I never said, though, that such an argument could not be made for Eyes Wide Shut. I think it could, and I did say in the subject line that it's a "great" movie. What I said was that I wasn't interested in making the argument, mostly because I don't expect people to consider the question seriously. (These people being, by the way, from what we see comparing the thread to the poll result, the vocal minority.)

I don't know you all that well, but one thing I do know is that I shouldn't care what you consider to be necessary or wanted.

All sorts of things have all sorts of things to do with all sorts of other things. But that isn't necessary or wanted here.
