Or, serendipitously, they could have GIVEN AN INTERPRETATION OF THE FILM! That’s my thread there, about a work that represents Kaufman’s only directorial output thus far. People around the world use drugs and this is a worldwide site, so somebody should have an interpretation besides me ... right?There's a thread on this movie, but if you go to the thread that is the Film Index when you click on The Wrestler it leads to Synecdoche, New York. Someone might want to fix that.
^geez louise, man.. come on.
dude, everyone knows elastigirl stretches, she doesn't friggin expand. that would be just silly. her total mass remains the same. derhhh.

Heh, drugs have nothing to do with it. My bringing up drugs was simply to highlight that, because everybody likes to take a short cut to feeling good by using drugs, Bluelight is more representative of human diversity than most "topic" websites (we attract a wide variety of people). Using all caps was just me prodding anybody out there to respond to the film i.e. I want to discuss interpretations of its meaning and I'm frustrated because nobody has taken the bait. The "... right?" is to inquisitively communicate hopefulness of response. I'm not sure what you mean by calling yourself a film charlatan. I meant no offense.What do drugs have to do with it? I don't recall any drug use in Synecdoche. As far as Kaufman films go I liked Being John Malkovich, Adaptation, and Eternal Sunshine quite a bit more than Synecdoche, which felt dragged out to me. I'd heard some people speak highly of it, so I kept feeling like I was missing some grand idea or message. It just wasn't a movie I could get into. I thought it was depressing and I found myself bored for the first time in a long time while watching a film. My opinion doesn't matter though what with me being your basic film charlatan. 8)

I think I would have watched The Wrestler years earlier if someone had told me that Marisa Tomei's ass and titties were so prominently featured. She is smokin' hot!
Even without that sweet, sweet ass it was still a good movie. Better than I thought it would be.
awesome! don't cheat yourself. write at least a little something about each and every one.So for 2013 I planned to do a Movie-A-Day thing, but that got complicated too quickly, so instead I'm just shooting see 365 new movies this year.

I really doubt I'll be able to keep up this pace for the rest of the year. It's kind of exhausting, tbh.
Pretty impressive Russian music video..
