An intricate, beguiling labyrinth of desire, hewn from the impressive medium of video, Speaking Parts is the apotheosis of Egoyan's early style. Mysterious, mesmerising and swarming with unforgettable images, it is a true classic of indie arthouse cinema. (Artificial Eye)

Atom Egoyan is mental. Not only does he indulge in a terrible gloom (with isn’t such an issue for me), but he doesn’t mind putting in the same idiotic hand-shot scene of a long-haired dude ten times over (which is a pretty big issue for me). The end result is an artistic hogwash – a story of two weird people that completely flew over my head. And if you’re surprised that I watched it till the end, I must say that it’s mostly because it was so weird at times that I simply couldn’t look away. ()
