Eye of the Beholder (2000)
Directed by Stephen Elliott
Written by Stephen Elliott
Starring Ewan McGregor, Ashley Judd, K.D Lang
Release Date January 28th, 2000
Eye of the Beholder is so much crazier than I ever imagined. This seemingly straightforward turn of the 21st century thriller starring Ewan McGregor and Ashley Judd is utterly bats***. That’s really the only way to describe it. A vaguely defined secret agent turned creepy stalker falls in love with an insane woman after witnessing her murder two people. As an expression of his love he begins murdering people to protect her and that’s only half of the creeptastic narrative of Eye of the Beholder.
Ewan McGregor stars in Eye of the Beholder as Steven Wilson aka The Eye, aka The Angel. He’s also known as the single worst secret agent in history. Wilson works for some unnamed spy agency where he uses a gun he modified into a camera, and still a gun, to take pictures of creeps screwing their secretaries. I imagine there is more to his job than this but this is what we first see. The first mission of Wilson’s we see we think he’s going to assassinate some guy in the midst of having sex.
