24. Herovit's world ends with one of the most harrowing portrayals in fiction of a personality breakdown & disengagement from reality.

26. Disappointing as the ending is, Birdman is a rich, thought-provoking film with brilliant acting about acting (a rare feat).

27. So: go see Birdman. I'll be interesting in what people think of the movie.
