===Marketing=== Warner Bros. heavily promoted ''Eyes Wide Shut'', while following Kubrick's secrecy campaign β to the point that the film's [[press kit]]s contained no production notes, not even the director's suggestions to Semel regarding the marketing campaign, given one week prior to Kubrick's death.<ref>{{cite news|last1=Campbell|first1=Duncan|title=Mouths wide shut for new Kubrick film|url=https://www.theguardian.com/uk/1999/jul/10/duncancampbell|newspaper=The Guardian|access-date=February 18, 2018|date=July 10, 1999|archive-date=February 19, 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180219090158/https://www.theguardian.com/uk/1999/jul/10/duncancampbell|url-status=live}}</ref> The first footage was shown to theater owners attending the 1999 [[ShoWest]] convention in Las Vegas.
