Throughout his career, Todd Haynes has managed to capture the wonders of human connection in a way that few other filmmakers of his generation have. Films like Carol or Far From Heaven are the first to come to mind, where the lead characters form strong bonds with each other, but are threatened to be torn apart by the times they’re living in. It seems fitting then, that Haynes would decide to try and tell an inverted version of that story, where his characters are not torn apart by time, but rather brought together by it.
This brings us to Wonderstruck, Haynes’ highly-anticipated follow-up to the stunning 2015 romance, Carol. As with that film, Haynes’ has chosen to take on the screen adaptation of another already beloved book, this time in Brian Selznick’s Wonderstruck, based on a screenplay written by Selznick himself. And in case the pressures of living up to the source material weren’t already enough, Wonderstruck also happens to be split up into two wildly different (and unconventional in contemporary cinematic terms) formats.
