Do you think a movie where the main character is driven to madness at the site of a Native American burial ground/frontier wars is not purposefully introducing this subtext or do you not like the language that the author used?

That is very valid subtext but I also believe Stephen King was wigging out detoxing from booze and blow with his family in CO and remember some Bradbury he read. Both can be true. King was so good he doesn't remember writing Cujo like Bowie doesn't remember recording Station to Station

Eyes Wide Shut is visually captivating string theory goodness - you can lose your mind over the rainbow right quick - but also I think Arthur Schnitzler wanted a little taste of that hot secret pre-WWI Vienna action that he'd never get (I'm all about that fallacy of authorial intent).

Most or all mentions of Native Americans were introduced by Kubrick and absent in King's original

> Stephen King

Would be good commentary for his version of of the film
