Winnipeg’s Matthew Rankin (The Tesla World Light) doubles down on his signature mode of gonzo history films with this bizarro biopic of William Lyon Mackenzie King, which reimagines the former Canadian Prime Minister’s early life as a series of abject humiliations, both professional and sexual.
Critical Notes
"The movie is full of demonstrative acting and self-consciously verbose dialogue..., but other touches underscore the serious critique beneath the heightened silliness." - Kevin Ritchie, NOW Toronto
