On Wednesday a group of us went to the cinema to see Birdman. Birdman is
a film starring Michael Keaton, Edward Norton and Emma Stone. It’s about Riggan
who is an actor who played a superhero over twenty years ago. He is now putting
on a broadway play and the film is about that and what goes through his mind.
The film has been getting lots of award nominations and the acting is
great. What’s the selling point of the film the concept of how the director
Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu tried to film it as if it was one long shot. So the
camera was always following the action. It reminded me of the different acting
and staging techniques I studied in A Level Drama. And also in West Wing when
they are doing the walking and talking and there would be these great duologue's played out.
If you go and see the film, tell me how it ends, I’m still not sure what
happened!
And why the picture of me and my dad and sister? Well I couldn't find a
picture of a birdman, and us wearing ponchos we’re vaguely look like we've got
wings!
