This is a 100% Charlie Kaufman film where you get an uncompromising film that's a classic and worth watching multiple times. Watching it five months later, I got over the initial expectations and focused on the richness of its details. Kaufman did not opt for an easy task and went for to direct his most ambitious script himself which might have gotten lost in the hand of others. A superb cast helps him to achieve his vision about art and life, how it feeds on each other but also its destruction. Kaufman's deadpan humor is full on and Philip Seymour Hoffman's Caden Cotard is neurotic on steroids compared to Woody Allen's. YRCinema's coverage of upcoming releases.
