Nicole Kidman’s 16-year-old daughter, Sunday Rose, recently watched her mother in the scene from the film “Eyes Wide Shut” where she is seen smoking marijuana. Despite the potential awkwardness, Sunday approved, saying, “Mom, that was good.” This interaction highlights not just a family moment but also how Kidmom’s professional life occasionally intersects with her personal life.
Kidman starred in “Eyes Wide Shut” as Alice Harford and shot scenes involving drug use and deep emotional explorations. Directed by Stanley Kubrick in 1999, it remains one of her notable films. Her portrayal demanded intense emotional depth and a display of vulnerability which evidently impacted viewers like Sunday decades later.
Besides her ongoing influence on screen, Kidman continues to be recognized for her contributions to film. She received the 49th AFI Life Achievement Award Gala’s Lifetime Achievement Award in April 2023 in Los Angeles. Accompanying these professional highs are significant family moments; for instance, last month she attended the Balenciaga couture show at Paris Fashion Week with Sunday.
Kidman once remarked on acting in her roles during an interview stating, “Feels slightly odd to me,” showcasing her continuous reflection on her profession. Nicole also expressed a strong appreciation for directors, attributing the cinematic outcome largely to their efforts and vision.
As a prominent actress with numerous roles over several decades alongside balancing a complex personal life including four children and marriage with Keith Urban, Nicole Kidanne wittily navigates both worlds. Acknowledged by peers and loved ones alike, Sunday’s reaction to “Eyes Wide Shut” illustrates the unique blend of personal impact and public acclaim that defines Nicole Kidman’s enduring career.
