I remember catching this one hype-free in the basement of the old Uptown Theatre (RIP) in Toronto, completely undersold - which is weird for a genre film at TIFF. Few had heard of, let alone actually seen Christopher Nolan's debut film, Following, and the solid character actor cast of Guy Pearce, Carrie-Anne Moss, Stephen Tobolowsky and Joey Pants was not enough to draw a crowd, but word-of-mouth slowly built before culminating in a very solid commercial release, and the rest, as they say, is history for one of the better art-blockbuster directors in the business.
