I felt that the movie was about everyone's struggle with time. Regret, about the past. Obsessiveness about the future. Blindness in the present. Relationships, roles, and decisions through time.

This is my absolute all time favourite movie and it has always alluded me why basically no one ever talks about it!!! It's pure, absolute genius and I am pretty much wanting to talk about it 100% of the time. So thanks guys!

On the issue of whether the film gives you something, I agree with Austin, this movie aggressively decides to not be for everyone and in a way that is what it gives to its audience. It gives lovers of philosophy and cinema a refusal to pander to anyone otherwise disinterested. It's for people who watch movies like the Matrix wishing they didn't have to wait through these fight scenes to get back to the philosophy. The movie is for people that roll their eyes when they hear you say that if a movie is going to be this ambitious it needs to give its audience something because this is what they want out of cinema and they don't get it much.

They keep describing it as supposed to be funny, I've always thought of it and heard it described as existential horror.

Synecdoche ny is the funniest movie ever made

@robonick3607 5 лет назад

Well yeah it has a lot of that but there’s also jokes. Like the ridiculous therapist who’s written a thousand books about herself. The neo Nazi book written by a five year old, making Kaden feel like he’s too old to work in a humorous way. It’s very comical and absurdist, but also very depressed and real.

It’s both, tragicomedies are usually the best comedies

There's a lot of take away from the references to their art. His art becomes bigger as his wife's keeps getting smaller - and their daughter dies for hers. She says that her flowers are dying, so now she is too. Hazel chooses to literally live in the fire. Now, to me it's simply a visual representation for the love she has for Caden (an objectively terrible person to be in love with) which is why it flickers in the background as she lives her life, marrying another, raising her kids, and when she finally does give in to the love she has for Caden she dies from the smoke inhalation.

I was really interested in watching this episode, but Jared's ambivalence towards the film is really making this unenjoyable

@alenaivanov3868 5 лет назад

A lot of people spend their entire lives building self-aggrandizing monuments meant to be thinly veiled reflections of themselves. Not just artists. Most people try in vain to make their own individual lives marked indelibly upon the Earth. The facsimile takes over their own reality, until both them and their accomplishments waste away. That's what I think this movie might(?) be about. Definitely not as wholesome or enjoyable as The Matrix! But every once in awhile sad people write movies too and that's fine!

I wanna hear Raymond and Austin reanalyze this.

@messylittlegirl 4 года назад

As Austin I was more excited and stimulated with the intelectual that the movie was giving me, that with the laughing tragedy. I think the blond guy, don't really understand the movie, I think the movie is a fucking masterpiece and yes is heavy but if you don't see it, it's because it isn't for you.

The Invention of Lying is a movie that I think would provide for great conversation in this podcast

@melangehans 2 года назад

This analysis seems really shallow, I'm sad to say. I mean, you think his sink accident caused a mental problem - this would ruin the entire point of the movie. He's supposed to be a stand in for everyones experience of life death and the multitudes that that entails - a synecdoche if you will. Dismissing that as a mental illness is just a really lazy analysis. Another smaller point - i believe the 13 million people is in reference to the number of characters in his play. Of course that's impossible, but so many things are impossible in this movie. The house on fire, Olive's diary, the warehouse in Manhattan containing the entirety of Manhattan - including a warehouse of the same size. The movie is absurdist and impossible things being used to make a real point is one of the most beautiful aspects of cinema itself

I loved this film (and hated Anomalisa) and I am a bit surprised that the philosophy nerds not only didn't like the film but seemed to miss a lot of the symbolism... a bit disappointed in this episode of the podcast, guys... Small Beans did a great job of evaluating this film on their podcast if anyone is interested...

@thelostpawn 5 лет назад

Ahhh! An episode of Doubt would have been so good! But finally, we get Starship Troopers!!!

@N1ght_walk 5 лет назад

Do one for Anomalisa.

@theinkspot1279 4 месяца назад

You guys just dont get it. For one stop comparing it to the fucking Matrix and it is absolutely nothing like the coen brothers. It is its own movie so what the actual fuck are you on about?

@Tychoxi 5 лет назад

I had assumed he said 13 billion people as the movie goes into the future, but I guess it makes sense that the world is going to shit maybe. or maybe 13 million is the peak of people who "lived" in his fake city ? ? ? ??

It's very reminiscent of Louie

@Ottrond 5 лет назад

Didn't Shakespeare wrote something about how we, are all like actors playing roles? I remembered this when Austin talks at 58:07.

@briankoontz1 5 лет назад

Isn't it just like a writer to view the world in those terms? If what a person does is sits in front of his monitor and experiences the performances of actors saying words written by writers, then the biases and agendas of those actors, writers, and the financiers that back them will come to influence or dominate the worldview of the spectator. Is it any wonder that in a world that Hollywood has greatly influenced that kids, many not even old enough to find legal employment, now sit in front of their computers and perform for their "fans". People who watched television for years had no problem transitioning to watching livestreams and RU-vid videos. Power and domination transform the world in it's image. Be careful what you wish for. Once a lion is taken off the leash, the outcomes may not be desirable. Human beings, even what we call human nature, change over time based on the content of the forces of power that shape them. What makes Hollywood powerful for us is that for the past 50 years, culture has had no meaning. Hollywood has filled that cultural void, with stories ranging from the natural to the space fantasy of Star Wars, and provided meaning, leading to Trekkies, Star Wars fans, and cosplayers of every stripe. But this isn't an actual solution to the lack of cultural meaning - it's patching a leaky tire. We shouldn't be content with riding on a patched tire - we should replace the tire.
