Too busy at the time! Too gay to be a Nazi!’ ... Christopher Plummer searches for an elderly German in Remember. Like Kate Winslet, Canadian director Atom Egoyan has had a shaky history with the Toronto film festival. In 2009, the tawdry erotic thriller Chloe. In 2013, the hammy crime drama Devil’s Knot. Now in 2015, after it received its world premiere in Venice, Egoyan is keen to make it third time unlucky with Remember, a film that further questions his place as a film-maker of note.
