Three Identical Strangers


2018 documentary

Rating: 15/20

Plot: Triplets separated at birth go eighteen years without knowing they've got brothers somewhere out there. They discover each other and get to meet Phil Donahue. Once the circumstances surrounding their separation start to be revealed, things get darker.

I'm not going to spend much time writing about this one because giving away anything at all would likely spoil the experience. I'll just say that it opens with whimsy, scoots along with some intrigue and mystery, and eventually gets very dark and disturbing. And I hope that doesn't give too much away.

I'm not sure I'd ever need to see this movie again, but it's something that everybody should see a first time.
