Canadian director, Oscar nominee, and sexual liberator Atom Egoyan turns 51 today.

A graduate of the University of Toronto's film program, Egoyan is one of Canada's most celebrated filmmakers of all-time. Most famous for his works Exotica and The Sweet Hereafter, Egoyan has helped legitimize Canadian film on the world stage. His distirbution company Mongrel Media has for years been showing the best in both Canadian and international cinema to audiences who might not otherwise have had the chance. And in his most recent film Chloe, Egoyan showed the world what it's like to get a handjob from Amanda Seyfried in Toronto's Allan Gardens!

To celebrate Egoyan's birth, we present a retrospective of the director's work.
