Review
Internationally praised by film critics and audiences, Egoyan’s
award-winning Exotica is arguably the best film of 1995. Prefaced by an
excellent essay by critic Geoff Pevere and an illuminating interview
with Egoyan, this book is a must-read for all those interested in modern
cinema. Egoyan’s screenplay is a work of genius, transcending formula
films, and using the metaphor of the strip-tease to bring the reader on
an exciting and surprising psychological journey.
