I hadn't heard about this film until about three weeks ago. It played earlier this year at Cannes and received a skittles bag of mixed reviews. Adam and Matty spoke about the film, last week I believe, on their podcast Filmspotting and both had fairly positive feelings about the film. Directed and written by Atom Egoyan, who also brought us THE SWEET HEREAFTER and WHERE THE TRUTH LIES to name a couple. Anyhoo, I'm interested, to say the least. Although this film doesn't open until early 2009, we're reaching the end of the year, "Oscar season" films, and I'd group this with those, not so much a contender with films like MILK and BENJAMIN BUTTON, but more "in the vein of."
