The director crafts a metatextual play-within-a-play that never quite ends up where you want it to go.
all of these films have a cadence to the acting and pacing that clearly shows how the director made specific choices during production.is likewise stylized, but to such an extent that it feels overwhelming, and without an ending that makes the execution worth it.
Everything is quirky, tongue-in-cheek, and drenched in irony. There’s even a moment in the film where Schwartzman exitsto go talk to the director, and it is so numbingly absurd and obvious that it becomes difficult to take this film seriously. It is so unnatural that Schwartzman’s break becomes the audience’s break. I’m willing to say that maybe I just don’t get it.
