The story told by Birdman has two time and space, one is the time and space before the Vietnam War, and the other is the time and space of the manager after the Vietnam War. The two time and space are crossed to tell the story, telling a story about the broken wings of a dream, birdy likes the one The bird, the person who hopes to become a bird, is finally locked up. It is ironic. The purpose of his desire to become a bird may be because he likes birds or he may desire freedom, but birds are always in a state of captivity to people. No matter how you like and treat the bird well, it is the opposite of the bird. It will die for freedom one day, and the birdy is finally imprisoned as a mental patient. For the bird, it is not a prisoner. The difference between the two is that , one for the bird cage, one for the prison.
Furthermore, "Birdman" bears a distinct trace of postmodern cinema.
Since there is a prison, there must be resistance. The resistance in "Birdman" is aimed at the mechanism of generating and exercising power. After going around, it will eventually return to the indictment of the war, especially the indictment of the Vietnam War.
In fact, after watching a lot of movies about the Vietnam War as the background, I always feel that in addition to anti-war thoughts, there is still a little nostalgia for the American Dream before the Vietnam War. A war caused by a political game brings a loud noise that wakes people up from their sweet dreams, and then they lie down, and the dreams cannot be continued. Combined with the present, everyone understands that "dreaming" cannot save the people.
