It was another genre of horror movie. A scary and depressing stuff for ordinary men.

Take what you want

Disappointment, isolation, and mortality.

Literally the soyboys life the movie

More like soynecdoche

>Women can be really dicks especially when you live in a relationship where both are struggeling artists
>Being too narcistic just hurts a creative process and you get stucked in a vicious circle. Break out and see what the sign of times are outside your own world and you might find even crazier and better stuff for your art.

You really ruin this board. I have respect for your political believes but you are not better than those people who you call out being chills and spreading propaganda.

Life sucks and then you die

I think that was the original intention. People just didn't realise because it's played in a way that doesn't make it obvious.

>Being chills
I wouldn't mind if somebody call me chill

It was a garbage. Let's not discuss this shit. Watching it was a waste of time already.

Really, guy?

I am retarded and I can't type... I meant shill of course

Synecdoche is one of those movies that I don't feel the courage to watch again despite having it enjoyed, it put me in such a deep pit that the end credits felt like a release to freedom, it was interesting, surreal, like watching a mirror gradually break, creating new shapes within itself until its pieces are so small that you cant make out the image, then it breaks from its frame and is over.

It was emotionally tiring, and alas kinda like with Anomalisa I am not smart enough to give a fullfilling meaning to the experience, like when you are done waking up from a dream and all that remains is a haze.

>The way the text fades in ever so slightly over the clock represents a struggle with time
I like this move a whole lot, but c'mon this is some turbo pseud shit.

I honestly thought it's main theme was fear. The miniature New York represents the control Cotard wants over his own world. The constant cleaning is him trying to fix things in the only way he knows how, to make them look neat and tidy. He suffers throughout the film from anxious daydreams about his daughter becoming a whore (I don't think he ever saw Adele or his daughter again after they left him), and constantly has to look to the women in his life for comfort. He wanted to be the director, making everything work the way he wanted it to, but in the end he became the one directed, and it was only in his dying moments when he realised that fate didn't care about your anxieties, it controls you, and everyone's inevitable fate is death.

Pretty good interpretation and summary, I guess. I really like how sudden the narrative style changes in the first 10 or 15 minutes, when you realize that the movie actually deals with unreliable narrative strategies and you can't really tell, what is really happening and what is just the and allegorical or twisted internal view of the characters.

He see his daughter, old, busted, she has become a german ero artist, does not even speak english, they talk while she is in her dying bed (not sure dying from what, maybe aids or cancer), using a machine that translates german to english and viceversa, her mother has been feeding her lies, about him leaving if I remember right, and tell his father to ask her for forgiveness (which is of course ridicolous), he hesitates but to make her happy asks so, and she says no, and dies.

I am not sure how reliable is the daughter's diary at a certain point.

That's alright baby. It was a good post. Do you need a hug?

life is precarious. enjoy what you can while you still can

NAVEL GAZING GARBAGE!!!FACT!!!

I really liked it. It never felt like it was trying to impart a single lesson, but was filled to the brim with various ideas/tangents/themes regarding ambition, creation, death, art and so forth. He is trying to create a work of art that encompasses all of life only to come up again and again against the futility (and impossibility) of doing so. The final scenes are some my favorite ever seen in a movie. I also felt that a lot of people not understanding it and/or repeatedly calling it pretentious resulted in the less impressive 'Anomalisa.' That movie had only a fraction of the ambition Synecdoche had.

It's not for everyone, but I appreciate that it exists.

just making the point that kaufman put a lotta of work into each detail

Intense self reflection is ultimately hollow as reality is divorced from those abstractions

It feels like a culmination of everything Kaufman has tried to do.

It's weird seeing a film like Anomalisa afterwards, because even though it's a good movie, it's just so neutered compared to Synecdoche.

Life is a performance. There isn't really a way to get it "right". The more time you spend obsessing over getting it "right", the more time you lose actually experiencing it.

I'm too lazy to think about hidden meanings. Even if it has a message, like said, I still just don't care. This isn't profound even though it's obviously trying to be. Maybe it's just the fact that I'm dead on the inside that these simple abstractions don't affect me on some deep emotional level, but if other people get something out of it, then more power to them I guess.

>I'm too lazy to interpret this work
>I'm confident saying it isn't profound
So do you have like an extra sense that lets you feel whether something is me meaning or not without actually thinking about it?

No, the reason I don't bother with trying to extrapolate meaning out of these sort of movies is because I'm unimpressed by everything.

This: doesn't impress me either. It's a very basic lesson that you might as well see on a Facebook motivational picture.

Meant to quote this one:

I'm quite glad we got something like anomalisa right afterwards, honestly. I love Kaufman' s whole shtick of strange story structure and ambiguity between reality and fiction, but like you said synecdoche was the accumulation of all he'd done up to that point. I'm glad we got a much smaller and more intimate story rather than him just doing synecdoche again.

neurotic jew whimpers about how pathetic he is and then dies

I hate this movie

You will get old, people will forget you and you will die. It's basically Memento Mori, the film. And I loved it.

Google doesn't give high resolution pics anymore for movie posters.

Protip Bing image search is way better.

This is pretty good. He tried to direct his life as best he could, but ended up an actor like anyone else. We all play our own roles, but we are not in control, and we will die.

Faggot

You are such an insufferable faggot. Never post again.

Another Charlie Kaufman movie about how reality sucks and is depressing and we are all going to die. Ever notice the only thing he wrote with a happy ending is Adaptation which is about him?

I respect your opinion sir, now have a good day and a wonderful life :)

very funny movie

He mentions this himself in the second part, you're not the only one critiquing this
