In I Met Someone—what Wagner has called a “tenderly mutilated companion piece” to his screenplay for Maps to the Stars (the film directed by David Cronenberg for which Julianne Moore won the Cannes Film Festival Award for Best Actress)—Oscar–winning Dusty Wilding learns the unspeakable secret hidden beneath the glamour of her carefully calibrated celebrity lifestyle and marriage. With Sirkian grandeur and fearless precision, Wagner scales the heights of his own magnificent obsession: the merciless horrors of destiny—and the shock of courage that often allows human beings to embrace the sacred. I Met Someone has been called “among the most poetic and tragic of all [Wagner’s] work. And perhaps the most deliriously redemptive.”
