      If you ask the bird's home

      The long shot of one shot to the end is the external performance of this film, with the percussion that is refreshing at the right time, and the slightly obscure feature film "Birdman" sometimes has a sense of movement in the feint.

      The complex society has become a world of information explosion and entertainment to death. The superheroes who once flew on the screen have long been no longer favored by the audience, but the outdated actor Reagan is not willing to be like this. In the...

      My heart is slightly larger than the entire universe

      What can we talk about when we're talking about long takes, what can we talk about when we're talking about superheroes, what can we talk about when we're talking about Raymond Carver, even when we're talking about soundtracks What can you talk about as a jazz drummer? "Birdman" caused much more talk than the script.

      From red carpet starlight to Oscar preview, from loud exclamations on long shots to Michael Keaton's level performance, "Bird Man" almost has both the honor of art films...

      Self-redemption of a middle-aged schizophrenic

      Reagan Thomson, who was middle-aged, fell into a bottleneck period. His daughter hated him, his peers laughed at him, and even the voice in his heart was swaying.
      Ironically, a gust of wind during the waiting period shut himself out, his only bathrobe was caught in the crack of the door, and he had no choice but to walk back to the theater through Times Square in his underwear. This was supposed to be a cup, but it unexpectedly got him 350,000 hits. The drama written, directed and acted by...

      Read and Write - What is the Birdman saying?

      Just finished watching Birdman.

      The protagonist of an all-or-nothing, self-directed and self-directed stage play runs into trouble during rehearsals. The willful arrogance of the talented supporting cast, doubts about his own level, estranged relationship with his daughter, etc. His original intention in doing this was to prove a little bit of himself. Many years ago, after he became famous as Birdman, he failed to achieve anything and became mediocre day by day. He hoped to prove his...

      Analysis

      The first hour was not for outsiders to see, the redemption of a past hero actor, or a Hollywood actor trying to tear off the label attached to it by the American film model. In fact, it is also a mid-life crisis of a middle-aged uncle. One shot is a gimmick after all. In order to reduce editing points as much as possible, a lot of handheld photography is used, which makes the audience feel very bad. In the last hour, the rhythm is strong. American movies cannot escape the pattern of typical...

      When we talk about movies, it's a spoiled bastard with ambition long shots, breaking into arbitrary doors regardless of time and space, streaking through Times Square, grandstanding amidst the din and commotion. The movie is not "Long Day to Night", the movie is "Escape into Nothingness"; the movie is not "Bullets Over Broadway", the movie is "Happy Ending"; the movie is not "The Artist", the movie is...

      Excessive reputation. The story is mediocre, and the script is mediocre. The cast always feels that it is lacking, and the overuse of mysteries and dazzling skills proves the lack of...

      5.0 Mark 2200? Rewatch the last movie during the high school entrance examination holiday, dedicated to Inaritu, who I didn't like. It's not hard to see that the play's form and text were influenced by "First Night" (the director/actor was distorted/crazy due to inspiration issues). Under the effect of the fancy and willful and smooth pseudo-one mirror, a layer of dream glitz is spread. There is a "noble" irony in the interweaving of drama and magical reality, and Inaritu, with his unique...

      Everyone shout Norton with me!...

    • By Oceane 2023-08-02 16:51:11

      A nerve-wracking film, with so much chatter in the middle that I have the urge to smash the computer. It's like a dish of incomparably meaty food, but unfortunately it's not appetizing. I watched it several times off and on, and finally it got better. The birdman jumped off the building and the daughter's perspective changed, giving people infinite reverie and blank space. The dazzling long shots blur the concept of time and space, and the performance of the characters on and off the stage...

    Behind the scenes gags

    Most scenes of the film were shot in the St. James Theatre on Broadway. In order to achieve a one-shot effect, actors usually need to complete up to 15 pages of the script at a time, and follow strict positioning without the slightest difference.
    Before the boot, the director showed his cast members a photo of Philip Petty (a well-known acrobat ) walking a tightrope between the twin towers. He told them "Guys, this is the movie we are...

    Evaluation action

    As the name suggests, "Birdman" can fly in the sky. The tense emotion, the ironic taste of the black comedy, and the wonderful chemical reaction between the actors make this movie a flowing visual picture scroll, which can be called a feat. ( "Hollywood Reporter" review
    Director Inaritu's fifth personal feature film is also his best work, and it has dealt a fatal blow to everyone-the film is commendable on every level. Films from...

    • Mike Shiner: A man becomes a critic when he cannot be an artist, the same way that a man becomes an informer when he cannot be a soldier.

    • [first lines]

      Young Birdman: How did we end up here? This place is horrible. Smells like balls. We don't belong here.

    • Young Birdman: You could jump right back into that suit if you wanted to. We're not dead.

      Riggan: Look at me. Look at this. Look, look, look! I look like a turkey with leukemia!
