birdman and pi


Just saw Birdman and found it incredible -- loved it.
Why was I reminded of this movie? At first I thought maybe it was because both were so intense and "thinking" movies, as opposed to escapism. But I feel the reason is deeper than that & there's more to it. Any thoughts?

Similar isolated main characters.. Frustrated and such. Also an open ending.

Yes I jumped to this as I was watching Keaton "fly" in the theater. The two characters are similar in personality and I loved both of the movies fairly equally with Birdman pulling ahead

I thought that it reminded me of Barton Fink. Especially the ending. The way that they both ended as probably hallucinations that questioned the whole reality of the movie.
