Your points about Cruise in EWS are brilliant and even as a big Cruise fan, you're right. But you seem to be making Kubrick into some kind of knowing Douglas Sirkian figure, working against the grain of convention. Maybe he did do that, but I don't think it was his intention. His films simply end up that way because his style makes them that way, regardless of content or message. But maybe I'm just not giving Kubrick enough credit in that area.
