Description

This week, we discuss BIRDMAN (2014) (or The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance), starring former Batman star Michael Keaton as the titular character. What ability and limits does art have in the pursuit of depicting "Truth"? When does sincerity become pretentiousness? How does a film use the pseudo one-shot technique to its full potential? Why is Jim Carrey suddenly a philosopher now? Find out "the Truth" on this very artistically significant episode of Talkie Talk. NEXT WEEK - Nadia: The Secret of Blue Water: The Motion Picture.
