Next Episode: Reel 56b: Only Connect, Pt.2
This week we're focusing on a pair of films that feature many missed connections, giving our title a touch of irony.
In this first half we're featuring Exotica, from 1994, directed by Atom Egoyan. It's a film where two parallel storylines are tied together by a third one which, oddly enough, isn't concurrent with the other two. Egoyan plays fair, though: he leaves the clues there for you; it's up to you to pick them up and put the pieces together.
In Part Two, we'll travel from Canada to Turkey, to review 2007's The Edge of Heaven.
