Synecdoche, New York

Synecdoche, New York flew way under the radar, especially for the directorial debut of screenwriter Charlie Kaufman, someone who I aspire to be like in my own art.  It's one of the most spellbinding films I've ever seen, walking some kind of wonderful line between hilarious interactions and sad, beautiful truths.  Jon Brion (co-produced Kanye's Late Registration) has done the soundtrack for most of Kaufman's movies and he's on point again in this film (peep: "Little Person").  Plus, it stars Philip Seymour Hoffman and Michelle Williams...

I promise it will be unlike any movie you have ever seen before; go cop it on DVD!!  Here's the trailer:



Look out for the track "Go Hard," coming soon off of From a Bedroom in St Louis; the song was inspired by the movie and references Kaufman's body of work...
