Synecdoche, New York is one of my favorite films of the last 10 years. I get something new out of it every time I watch it. This video is largely my take-away on the film, a look at Caden's long and complicated life, and trying to make sense of what the character couldn't.

I adore this film. I think many of us see a bit of ourselves in Caden, especially those of us who strive for creative recognition. We want praise, validation, and sometimes that can get in the way of our emotional connections and relationships with others. All of us are at least a tad self-centered; that's part of the human condition. Kaufman throws it in our face and that doesn't go unappreciated. This is an excellent and ambitious video, Dan. I really want to rewatch Synecdoche, and I can't wait for part two! Keep it up!

@@drakoinx It's incredible how unknown A Scanner Darkly is, considering all the huge names involved and the general success of PKD adaptations. If you haven't already, you should seriously read the book. It's one of PKD's best, IMO. The "What does a scanner see?" and "That one touch of her hand" segments are probably the most powerfully PKD has ever resonated with me. That's not even mentioning the afterword - literature, movies, and music very rarely make me genuinely emotional, but I was in tears by the end of that afterword.

Hey, great analysis! Personally, though I'm not sure if Caden really experiences understanding in the end. He seems to be trying to appreciate Ellen's story, but when she tells him about her life, he imagines connections that relate only to HIMSELF, such as Adele telling him everybody's disappointing or an image of his daughter Olive, after hearing, "Where is my little girl?" repeated over and over. So even though, he tries to break down his wall and understand somebody else, I think he still ultimately falls back into selfishness. By the way, I'm sorry if that sounds totally pessimistic! It's just my personal opinion on the film's ending. Your analysis is fantastic by the way! You've clearly got a lot of talent. Thanks for this video! :)
@SesameCake
@SesameCake Год назад
I think there was a very nuanced conveyance of self and other in the denouement of the film. Yes, Caden was incredibly wrapped up in his own ego, but he rebounded near the end. He'd tell those around him that they were all components in not only his story but as 'lead actors' in their own, and of course he was unable to fully, emotionally reach his audience. So, using the surrogate of the likes of Sammy - someone who, despite being something of a 'shadow' himself, is actually able to reach those he loved, like Hazel, and tell her all the things Caden wished so much to. And because Sammy is able to communicate this love unhinibitedly, his heart breaks since he was also truly in love with Hazel. He cares for his daughter Olive because that's what parents are supposed to do. But life slips him by, and he only sees her when she's covered in tattoos and dying, and even then she doesn't recognize him until she quotes a poem they bonded over when she was a child. Yes, Adele is successful and happy because she's able to remove herself from her art, which Caden is unable to do. Increasingly throughout the film, he loses the ability to differentiate between reality and dream, (i.e. the self-help author lady on the plane). Also, his relationship with Claire was a bit confusing. I think she was almost a little marginalized, but she did express a genuine interest in Caden's vision. However, like so many people in Caden's life, she slips him by. Finally, at the end, Caden is able to fully dissolve his ego by placing it outside of himself into Ellen. No longer is it a one-sided story with him as the unreliable narrator. He has moved beyond himself. "You are no Caden. You are Olive. Adele. Claire." It's heart-wrenchingly brilliant. And so many layers!I I love how personal yet all-encompassing Kaufman's works are. He addresses all aspects of the human condition. Both ugly and beautiful.

Beautiful film, beautiful analysis. One thing I love about this film is that, I believe, no person leaves this film with the same interpretation as another. This is what makes it such a masterful piece of art. Not only that, but it is one of few films I can say has actually affected my mentality and the way I view things. Many films incorporate death into their story, but this is one of few, if not the only film where it feels like you're watching somebody who is already dead. There's so much about this film that I truly adore that it only grows on me more and more as time passes by. And man, there is quite an irony in that.

Thank you kindly! I'd say that's true for all of Charlie Kaufman's work, which is why I think he's such a good writer, being able to draw so many different reactions from an audience is amazing. Yeah, he really is a zombie through most of the movie, which I think is a really accurate portrayal of depression and anxiety.

This is such a brilliant video! I hated Synecdoche, New York so much when I first watched it. I found it to be boring, pretentious, and honestly pointless. Your analysis has opened my eyes and provided a complete 180 degree shift in opinion. I see now how important this film is and how very resonant it is with many aspects of my own human condition. Caden's reluctance to open his heart and fear of connection is something I think all people can honestly, profoundly relate to. Your insight and deconstruction of this film is truly invaluable to pulling the absolute most out of a viewing experience. Amazing work, friend. Truly great work. I eagerly anticipate the second part to this video. Also, thank you so, so much for plugging my music with this video. I cannot begin to thank you enough!

After watching it, I honestly have no idea what’s the difference between honesty and pretension anymore
@Just.Kidding
@Just.Kidding Год назад
Its good you realized that. Here's a little tip - if you think something is pretentious, the problem probably isn't with the movie. "Pretentious" is a word people use when they want to insult something, but there's nothing to insult. They use it when they don't immediately understand something, but don't want to feel stupid or engage with the work. It's easier to dismiss something as pretentious than it is to open yourself to it, or to be an active viewer. And after all, if something is pretentious nonsense, then it's ok if you didn't really engage with it, and you wouldn't have to feel bad for not understanding it! It's a word that's totally divorced from its original meaning, and is used as an excuse to dismiss or even shame originality, honesty, and experimentation. It's the way people who only watch big budget summer blockbusters or listen to top 40 justify their narrow viewpoint. Next time you find yourself thinking something is pretentious, ask yourself what made you think that. If you don't find a solid reason (as opposed to an overall feeling/impression), try letting yourself be more receptive to it; watch with an open heart and active mind. Let the art do what it's trying to do. You might just find something great. TL;DR - The word "pretentious" is almost exclusively used as an excuse to justify plebianism.

@NobleAbsinthe

I always return to this film and I take a new piece of life lessons from it. Caden's project of making a huge play always reminded me of procrastination. Like when you're a student you waste alot of time trying to find the "best way to study" when the answer is is to just get started. Alot of his issues were him being to scared to make a choice in fear of it backfiring. He didn't commit to hazel, he didn't continue to pursue olive until it was too late, he didn't name his play, he didnt try to make his relationship with Claire work, and he didn't follow through with his own suicide. Everything he did was half assed. So what I got out of it was if I wanted to not be a caden, I had to be comfortable with being uncomfortable. I went back to college for what I'm passionate about, and also work. Earlier in my life when I watched this film I broke up with a girl that I could have been in a loveless relationship with because I feared I wouldn't be able to find anyone else. Now I'm married to my life partner. You have to be honest with yourself and go after what you want, and really know what you want in life. Because we all are just going to die, so you might as well try.

Great video and analysis. I've only seen the movie once, since it is so powerful, but I thought a lot about it. I have an additional analysis arising from the burning house; why are there so many bizarre things in the story? The burning house? The lady with the sore feet? the illnesses? - I figured out that the entire movie might be a reconstruction of Caden's lifestory through his fading memories. That's why the house is on fire; Hazel's house ended up burning, and that's why in retrospective, the house always seemed to be on fire; the memories are mixed. This is the case with the illnesses as well; they are perhaps representing all the illnesses old Caden is experiencing as an old man when thinking about and reconstructing his life. Mixup of past and present by an old mind. And the massive dome project could represent the act of reacting an entire life in your head - but its not real. The people are not real - they are constructed from memory and reenacts memories. And every reenactment moves further away from the truth, because madeup ideas are accepted as facts and added to the story.
@daniel_netzel
@daniel_netzel 7 лет назад
That's a really cool theory that I haven't heard before, it certainly makes a lot of sense. Honestly, I think even 50 years from now, most of us will still be scratching our heads trying to figure this movie out, and I think that's why Kaufman intended. He seems more interested in emotional experiences in film than a film necessarily making logical sense.

It was personally way too depressing for me since i related a lot to the characters in the film, which ultimately made the journey difficult.

If I didn't know who Father John Misty was I would have thought he was a 16th century theologist or something given the way you presented him. Great video though, that was exceptional analysis. I don't really find the same significance you did in the names of the characters, but admittedly that's the type of thing Kaufman could have totally spent hours deciding on. Also throughout the movie I kept thinking how much it resembled a Borges story, and I feel like a lot of the same themes apply.

One thing I just noticed: the magazine article that says 'It's good to be Adele' is so interesting because in a way Cotard's whole problem is that he CANT be Adele. He can't be okay with her way of life, he can't work on a smaller scale, he can't stop being so neurotic, he won't ever get the recognition she gets and most importantly he won't ever get out of his own head and start really considering the world around him.

Good job on the vid. Never realized Cotard delusion. I saw it in theaters, got it on dvd, then blu-ray. There's a good round-table discussion in the special features. It takes something out of you every time you watch it. You could go so much deeper, would you consider more parts to the analysis of the movie. The funny parts to me are the saliva scene and the fake tear scene. Overall, I like to think the movie only spans about a year, where we the viewer get to see Cotard's MacArthur grant funded "play", which is the story of the play which never gets actualized. Maybe Kaufman has inadvertently put a version of himself in his own film...again. Maybe all lines spoken were planned out by Cotard. sorry for the length.
@daniel_netzel
@daniel_netzel 8 лет назад
Thanks! I'll have to see if I can find that somewhere, I'd like to watch that. Oh for sure, the saliva scene gets me every time, Phil was such a talent. I'd definitely consider it, but it's not likely unless I really feel I have a lot more to say, and at the moment I feel like I covered all of the major bases. There's always more to discuss with a movie this intelligent, but I'm pleased with my contribution. Though who knows, maybe I'll watch it again in a few months/years and have a completely different take on things.

Thanks for this. I could only understand that it was about death. This brought up a lot of things that I myself see within me and idk if that's a good thing.

I do think that when Caden says "are you sure it's alright?" he didn't brush off concern for Olive, but Adele did.

You may be right, she's hardly winning parent of the year awards.

Awesome analysis, but the editing is really distracting, especially the black and red screen wipes.

The Celts weren't a single society of people with a unified culture, but rather a diasporic lingual group, making it difficult to make generalizations like "the Celts thought *blank* was *blank*." Absolutely amazing video on an absolutely amazing movie, though. Good job.

This is great, my only criticism is the audio needs work, the movie clips are too quiet

Definitely something I've tried to improve in future videos, but you're definitely right about that.

I don't know why it's never mentioned, but I absolutely hate Adele... in my view she is the one who destructed Caden from within. She gave him false hope when she said she loves him, and that it's only a month in Berlin and then she's coming back , and that they'll talk about their relationship when she gets back. Then the way she dumped him, and took his child away from him (he never recovered from that). Not only that, to ensure that their child never asks again about her father, she painted a black picture about him in her daughter's mind claiming that he left them to be with a man. She's a constant liar. ADELE IS EVIL!

I might be the only one on the comment section who hated the movie. I find it pretentious.

the movie is an anti Harold and Maude, the coming of age story of a 40 year old

This is one of the worst movies ever made, alongside A Streetcar Named Desire, The Human Centipede, and Being John Malkovich.

Have you seen it? I think this movie does the complete opposite opposite of suck...it blows! xD Couldn't resist. In all seriousness, it's a great film, one of my favorites, but it's definitely not for everyone.
