The Tracey Fragments has a number of things working against it. There's that splintered-screen, Mike Figgis-meets-Jack Bauer aesthetic that seems to have audiences seeing double. There are those intimations of Dogme 95 that have Ellen Page's character chasing after her brother who barks, convinced he's a dog. And, maybe most dangerous of all, there's the ominous reality that, along with Smart People, this is Page's return to the bigscreen after her Oscar-nominated turn in Juno. There are curses associated with that sort of thing.
