Birdman (2014)
Directed by Alejandro
G. Inarritu this film stars Michael Keaton, Edward Norton, Emma
Stone, Naomi Watts and Zach Galifianakis. A film actor famous for his
work on a super hero franchise tries to put together a play with
artistic merit to create a legacy for himself.
At times it is hard to
pin down what this film is preciesely but it is always entertaining
and has plenty of depth. The plot is very much poking at the life of
actors as well as the world of theatre and film with an interesting
intertwining of the protagonist's life with the role he has in the
play he is working on. There are a ton of long takes shot with steady
cam that give the film a frenetic energy and must have been very hard
to pull off.
5/5
