Movie Haiku:Superlative meditation on celebrity culture stars Keaton as an actor who rejects his multiplex Superhero persona seeking professional salvation on Broadway & personal redemption with his family. Alternately manic & morose, Keaton has worked his whole life for this moment. BRAVA to writer/director Iñárritu & the whole cast/crew: we laughed, we cried, we loved it!
