Beaks here...
Henry Alex Rubin's DISCONNECT made the fall festival rounds last year, and didn't fare all that well with critics. Generally, that's a bad thing - unless we're talking about Paul Haggis's CRASH, which bounced back rather nicely from an unspectacular 2004 debut at the Toronto International Film Festival.
So perhaps it's a good thing for Mr. Rubin that his film, in trailer form at least, looks like the distracted-living version of CRASH. See for yourself...
DISCONNECT is Rubin's first film since the excellent documentary MURDERBALL (which he co-directed with Dana Adam Shapiro). I liked that movie. I hope I like this movie. But if it bludgeons me with IMPORTANT THEMES like this trailer, I don't think we're going to get along.
