Synecdoche, New York
Mood:  a-ok
Topic: movies
First, let me say I love Charlie Kaufman. His films always make me think, "Adaptation," "Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind," "Being John Malkovitch," even "Punch Drunk Love" (which was hard to watch, but all tied up in the end and made me look back and like what I saw).

"Synecdoche, New York" is an affecting beautiful film IMO. If one only sits there and lets it wash over them, they could pick something up. Is it dense? Yes. Has it more layers than an onion? Yes. Why not? When I walked out of the film I thought to myself "shouldn't I be depressed?" I wasn't, instead I felt comprehended. And when Mr. Kaufman tackles love in any of his films, he is completely on target. Ah, Hazel and Caden... We are all connected. We are all alike in basic terms. Thank you Charlie Kaufman!

PS: I am also SO thrilled that I made it into this film however fleeting! It was an honor to be directed by him no matter how minutely, and to be one of those who peopled this film!
