Comnig 6/11/24 from Kino Lorber.
Available in the U.S. for the first time, Patricia Rozema's sophomore follow up to I've Heard The Mermaids Singing follows Norman (Maurice Godin), an aspiring writer with writer's block, who peeps on his neighbors. When he witnesses the murder of famous singer Madeline X (Margot Kidder), he attends her memorial and encounters a woman connected to her (Kate Nelligan). He follows her home and discovers her nightly visits to a secret room. Set in Toronto of the ‘90s, this twisted urban fairy tale, as much about the consequences of naive romanticism as our uniquely modern obsession with celebrity, has two endings – one tragic, one euphoric, both essential.
Product Extras:
Audio commentary by director Patricia Rozema

This Might be Good (2000, short film by Patricia Rozema)

Alternate French audio dub
