Review of Birdman or (The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance) (2014) by Fabien G — 04 Jul 2015
The play within a play motif is used here to great advantage as an aging actor famous for pablum seeks to redeem his self-worth by mounting a prestigious piece on Broadway, that place where legions of the acting community believe is Shangri-La.
He has problems, of course, and that mainly being that no one around him really gives a hoot regardless, and there are many of these. The work is involving, and an astute commentary on modern life in Western civilization.
