Anecdotes
Atom Egoyan says that the film was inspired by three experiences: being taken to a lesbian club where women onstage performed as men; having a tax auditor suggest to him (incorrectly) that he was being cheated by a business partner; and realizing as a teenager that a friend was trapped in an incestuous relationship.

Gaffes
In one scene when Eric is talking with Cristina walking on the grass, you can see a microphone at the top of the screen.

Everyone in the film has a psychological problem....

Interesting opening credits. Interesting cast. Interesting use of Leonard Cohen's song. But in totality, just above average. The film deals with a set of characters, each having some sort of a psychological problem. Visually strong, but content-wise very weak.

This is my first Egoyan film. He has evidently some talent to make a viewer sit up and expect the unusual. But why populate an entire film with problem characters? That's not reality.

The most interesting bit was actor Don McKellar who plays Thomas is made to look like the director Atom Egoyan, complete with his glasses. Is that an autobiographical touch?
