No, Eyes Wide Shut is the only one that wasn't re-released (the
original-releases were rushed to capitalise on Kubrick's death & EWS'
theatrical release. The DVD release wouldn't have occured for another year
or thereabouts.)
Pity, because it could certainly have used a re-issue. For such a recent
film, the DVD has a lot of flaws.
