noises off

Rating: 5/10 (13 November 2014)

This is a confusing story about a movie star producing a play on Broadway.
Wow did you know that every star on Broadway and in Hollywood never sleeps with their wives? They only sleep with everyone else. They sleep with their friend's wife, their friend's daughter their friend's son! Gee I did not know that, so luckily there are movies to tell the sad defecating back story behind all theater and movie productions. There has to be some redeeming value to these characters or why do we idolize them? Perhaps we are all just lost in the murky sleazy world and love that there are no stars with redeeming values.
Seems to me there are many great stars with great happy stories and I love to hear them. I also love the steamy sleazy back stories too then they are well told and cohesive. Everyone in this is brilliant – to bad the story is "Lost in Space".
There have been some legendary stories about the back stage shenanigans at a play - Noises Off (example)! But Birdman is a meandering confusing story that lacks, well, comprehension. Sometimes great stars waste their time on an artsy film. Sometimes they just have to make a movie with inside jokes that we just do not get. I did not get it. But I did not go to sleep...
Watch Noises Off, Watch Episodes, Not this mess.
