Birdman or (The Crippling Insecurities of an Artist)
Birdman is a film that expresses my most embarrassing insecurities: vanity, jealousy, and creative validation. It's hard to say definitively what the ending means, but I want to look at how the ending relates to our need to be loved.
That being said...
