Now this looks like a good film – and not just because it seemingly features a self-depricating performance by an actor not ashamed of but truly embracing his past.
One-time ‘Batman’ Michael Keaton is winning raves for his performance as a has-been actor, best known for playing the title role in a superhero franchise called “Birdman”, in the film of the same name.
A faux trailer for “Birdman Returns”, a film within the film, has been released. It, according to the spiel, was released in 1992 – which coincidentally was when Keaton headlined “Batman Returns”.
