2012 Movie #30 - Wrong (2012) I am definitely a traditionalist when it comes to narrative filmmaking, but even I was often charmed and won-over by the surreal storytelling present in WRONG. I found the film at its most successful when it managed to satisfy the emotional and dramatic beats of a traditional narrative in ways totally non-traditional. This is especially true of the first 15 minutes, but when it verged off beyond that style I started to lose interest. That said, I suspect for someone with more anti-traditionalist tastes than me, the film is vastly more enjoyable. What I’ll Take Away: It’s definitely worth watching a film like WRONG as an exercise in separating the power of form and content. High-res
