Possible Worlds

Robert Lepage is fastidious with the image and sound (parallels to Peter Greenaway are fair), and he places special emphasis on the dialog which is made even more effective by the stellar Tom McCamus and Tilda Swinton. Not all ideas succeed, so when the body horror and sci-fi overreach, the romance and existential themes come to the rescue. Jonathan Freeman's evocative cinematography helps.

Although a fair bit stilted and unevenly acted this philosophical wander-thriller left a pretty big mark on me as a young man. There is so much craft in this film that I really appreciate.
