20 Things You Didn't Know About Eyes Wide Shut

Nudity clauses are very much part of a larger conversation now and rightly so, but this was not always the case. Kidman was understandably concerned, yet was reassured as the production commenced, telling the New York Times in 2020:

He would show me the scenes with the nudity before they made it into the film. Then I could feel completely safe...
