Trying to get through "Synecdoche, New York" and it is tough going...

This is probably the most pretentious film I have ever seen. I don't mind grand standing when it comes to something but this is just that old trick of putting one mirror facing towards another one and seeing infinity so far.

I hope it pulls together in the next half hour or it's going in the pile of films which I keep as a reminder never to trust reviews.

Synecdoche sort of reminds me of "Filth" the film from a few years back... intelligent but cluttered and unappealing with some of the strongest performances ever seen in a disappointing film.
