Trailer for Charlie Kaufman’s Synecdoche, NY. Looks difficult, obtuse, uncompromising, uncomfortable of genre = perfect directorial debut from Academy award-laden screenwriter?
Synecdoche is:
- a term denoting a part of something is used to refer to the whole thing, or
- a term denoting a thing (a “whole”) is used to refer to part of it, or
- a term denoting a specific class of thing is used to refer to a larger, more general class, or
- a term denoting a general class of thing is used to refer to a smaller, more specific class, or
- a term denoting a material is used to refer to an object composed of that material.
Looks amazing, I love the richness of Kaufman’s worlds.
