Review of Synecdoche, New York (2008) by Imnotlaugin — 10 Jun 2018
I can honestly say that this film is far and away the most powerful piece I have ever experienced, without a trace of hyperbole. Where as other movies set out to entertain, Synecdoche aims to shed light on the human condition as it stands bare and ashamedly exposed.
What follows is nothing short of transcendent, but profoundly humane. It succeeds not only in accurately portraying humanity's most intimate, innate hopes and fears, but it also occasions us to feel them passionately.
A masterpiece.
