October 7, 2005. Written and directed by Atom Egoyan, Where the Truth Lies is based on the Rupert Holmes novel of the same name. Atom also directed the sexually charged EXOTICA, with a spectacular performance from Mia Kirshner. I find the title of the movie quite descriptive because it explores the nature of truth and price you can pay when you push for it at all costs. Alison Lohman is excellent as the celebrity journalist who gets in over her head while interviewing a show business team that is reminiscent of Jerry Lewis and Dean Martin (played by Kevin Bacon and Colin Firth). Like EXOTICA, the explicit sexual content is integral to the plot. The story takes many twists and turns, both in time and space, but the final scene is rewarding. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0373450/
