Synecdoche, New York 4K 2008

Synecdoche, New York is the talented work of a convinced pessimist and misanthrope about the obvious meaninglessness of human existence.

It is also about the fact that most people are bad directors of their own lives, totally incapable of offering themselves a tolerable script and actors who could handle even simple roles.

Look around you, dear directors. Analyze the situation of the actors involved in staging the play of your life. Are they capable of implementing your ideas and your script? And the script itself, can anyone be interested in it?

Or maybe the worldly and creative wanderings of the protagonist of this film vividly illustrate the wretchedness of thinking homo sapiens, trying to build something in his not infinite life, when in fact there is neither past nor future, but only 'here and now'?

An intellectual rebus with elements of psychedelia by Charlie Kaufman is intended for an advanced viewer and makes you think about the meaning of life, in which movement is important, and frequent changes and turns are absolutely necessary to develop the plot, because you cannot play the same play until the very end.
