It’s good to see one of Canada’s last auteurs still taking his shots, and Seyfried getting another shot at challenging material.

Can’t remember the last Egoyan film that I thought worked, and this one wound up with Distributor of Last Resort XYZ. So let’s lower those expectations.

Maybe it’s just a hard sell, as Egoyan films often are. A thriller set in the theatre, with “suppressed trauma” and symbolism. Egoyan has been known to toy with kinky.
