Re: "Birdman"
I don't have a firm grip on the final scene but I thought it was interesting that as his life had been mimicking almost everything in the play, as if he had written it prophetically, in the end it was him in the mask. Instead of being unable to turn and look at his wife (as the old man was unabl...

Re: "American Sniper"
My thoughts (and here's an unnecessary disclaimer if you're 11 pages deep in a thread specifically about one movie, my entire post will be spoilers) are that the film was good but not great, certainly not Best Picture great. I haven't seen all of the nominees, actually Birdman is the only other and ...

Re: How Many Films?
I think the easiest way to learn about film is to seek out differing views, especially from your own. Why do people laud a movie you hate, or dismiss something you love?
