Re: Last movies you saw
Synecdoche, New York
So this is Charlie Kaufmann's (writer of Adaptation, Being John Malkovich, Confessions of a Dangerous Mind, Eternal Sunshine) directorial debut. It's really quite a bizarre film, but there's something about it I can't get out of my mind. I don't think I could even begin to explain exactly what happens and how and in what sequence, but it's all pretty interesting to watch. The best that I can say is that it's a film about a man (Phillip Seymour Hoffman) who believes he is dying and he stages a play in a warehouse about his life as he is currently living it. It's very "Adaptation-esque" in that regard, very self-referential, etc.
It's probably not for everyone, but I don't think I've ever seen a film like it, and that's a good thing.
