Movie Review Synecdoche New York

So  as i was browsing my movie collection i thought i would review a drama. Synecdoche New York is a film about a regional theater director struggling romantic relationships, as well as problems of aging, and a mysteriously degenerating medical condition. One day he in is given funding to develop a perfect theatrical work of art. He decides to build a full scale replica of New York City inside an impossibly large warehouse and populating it with thousands of actors. He spends the remainder of his life creating a piece so personal and epic in scope, that the line between reality and art collide, and the world that he created swallows up everything within it. This movie is in my opinion ahead of its time in so many ways, the story is a bit complex so if you intend to get a fully realized story be prepared to watch it a few times. This movie is also very sad and wont leave you feeling like a million bucks, BUT the plot is very interesting and gives you a better understanding a the human being. I would recommend this to anyone thats not having a shitty day so check it out.

Tell me some of your favorite dramas.
