Remember when Dr. Bill (dollar bill, get it?) was at the party at the beginning of Eyes Wide Shut and the models were going to take him to the "end of the rainbow"?

ITT: cinema analysis for 9 year olds
well nearly every scene in the movie has bright, rainbow-like, lights in it. Except for one notable one
>>62958224
when he is at Sommerton there aren't christmas lights. He is at the end of the rainbow. Is this where the models wanted to take him or was "the end of the rainbow" just the girls helping him participate in the kind of debauchery that was present at Sommerton?

also, at the party is a Star of Ishtar.
Ishtar is the Babylonian goddess of fertility, love, war and, mostly, sexuality. Her cult involved sacred prostitution and ritual acts, two elements we clearly see later in the movie.

Is that a gay club?

In Eyes Wide Shut, there are therefore two worlds: The Christmas lights-filled “rainbow world”, where the masses wander around, trying to make ends meet and the other world… “where the rainbow ends”- where the elite gathers and performs its rituals. The contrast between the two world give a sense of an almost insurmountable divide between them. Later, the movie will clearly show us how those from the “rainbow world” cannot enter the other world.

save yourself some time, anon...
almost every shot in the entire movie contains occult references

Oh? List them all and explain their meaning then.
Also, kind of cool but does anyone remember that his wife was named Alice?
Is this Alice peering "through the looking glass" and seeing the occult?
The location selected to film the elite scenes is quite interesting. Mentmore Towers was built in the 19th century as a country house for a member of the most prominent and powerful elite family in the world: The Rothschilds. By selecting this location, was Kubrick trying to show his audience the “real world” equivalents to the ultra-elite shown in the movie? Incidentally, the name of Bill’s connection to the elite, Victor Ziegler, is of German-Jewish origin, like Rothschild.
The music in the movie also changes drastically. The song heard in the background is called “Backwards Priests” and features a Romanian Orthodox Divine Liturgy played backwards. The reversal or inversion of sacred objects is typical of black magic and satanic rituals. By having this Christian liturgy played backwards right before widespread fornication is Kubrick’s way of stating that the elite is nothing less than satanic.

This was Kubricks Swan song and his message to those in the know
There is a scene where Kidman is telling the little girl math problems and uses boy's names and their money to illustrate her teaching. This is showing how she is teaching her daughter the path of womanhood to take notice of men's financial situation.
In the movie’s end credits (and sources such as IMDB), it is listed that the role of the High Priest was played by “assistant director” of the movie, Leon Vitali. If one carefully reads the news article mentioned above, Leon Vitali is the name of the London fashion designer Amanda had an “affair” with. Furthermore, the High Priest has an unmistakable English accent. We can therefore deduce that the High Priest is the fashion designer.
This hidden subplot is interesting as it reveals the true nature of the fashion and entertainment industry. High-ranking individuals in these fields are initiated in occult secret societies and deal with MK slaves.
