If you loved Contagion, try Side Effects
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Steven Soderbergh, and they sit in Drama / Thriller territory. If that's the register that drew you to Contagion, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Side Effects is
New York City, a psychiatric office, pills on a desk. A woman's fragile calm, a husband's looming release from prison, a doctor's reassuring voice. Soderbergh expertly calibrates the tension.
