Birdman

Set almost entirely within a theatre in Broadway, Birdman stars Michael Keaton as an actor who starred as Birdman in a superhero movie 20 years ago, who now is struggling to remain in the public eye and make a living and resorts to putting on a play on Broadway. There is a certain reality in the casting of Keaton, who obviously is most famous for playing Batman in 1989 and whilst having some smaller parts in big movies, has not had much of a staring role just lately.
I really enjoyed this film and the performance from Keaton, especially the single handed scenes where he is wrestling with the voice of Birdman in his head. I also enjoyed the cinematography, with very long takes and one scene flowing into the next without an edit point, which adds to the overall feel of the movie. 9/10
