"Synecdoche, New York"

There was a stretch during Synedoche, New York where I thought I wasn't going to quite make it through, and it was probably only my admiration for Phillip Seymour-Hoffman as an actor that kept me watching for the last hour. But, even though the Lynchian reality-tearing and the constant punishing blows of human sadness and gloom were challenging to withstand, when I realized what Caden Cotard's "project" was shaping out to be, everything became much more interesting. Stick this one out and you will be rewarded.
