EXOTICA
The foremost film ever made by Canada’s Atom Egoyan, an elliptical, provocative and altogether fascinating 1994 drama
MIGRATING FORMS

More Bad Influences
Three years ago, when I drew up a listing of periodicals that inspired me, I figured I was committing my biggest-ever waste of time. What a surprise, then, when LOOKING BACK ON SOME BAD INFLUENCES went on to become one of my most popular articles!
