Iñárritus existenzieller Komödie BIRDMAN erhofft sich Riggan Thomson (Michael Keaton) durch seine Inszenierung eines ambitionierten neuen Theaterstücks am Broadway, neben anderen Dingen, vor allem eine Wiederbelebung seiner dahin siechenden Karriere. Zwar handelt es sich um ein ausgesprochen tollkühnes Unterfangen – doch der frühere Kino-Superheld hegt größte Hoffnungen, dass dieses kreative Wagnis ihn als Künstler legitimiert und jedermann, auch ihm selbst, beweist, dass er kein abgehalfterter Hollywood-Star ist. Doch während die Premiere des Stücks unaufhaltsam näher rückt, wird Riggans Hauptdarsteller durch einen verrückten Unfall bei den Proben verletzt und muss schnell ersetzt werden. Auf den Vorschlag von Hauptdarstellerin Lesley (Naomi Watts) und auf das Drängen seines besten Freundes und Produzenten Jake (Zach Galifianakis) hin engagiert Riggan widerwillig Mike Shiner (Edward Norton) – ein unberechenbarer Typ, aber eine Garantie für viele Ticketverkäufe und begeisterte Kritiken. Bei der Vorbereitung auf sein Bühnendebüt muss er sich nicht nur mit seiner Freundin, Co-Star Laura (Andrea Riseborough), und seiner frisch aus der Entzugsklinik kommenden Tochter und Assistentin Sam (Emma Stone) auseinandersetzen, sondern auch mit seiner Ex-Gattin Sylvia (Amy Ryan), die gelegentlich vorbeischaut, um die Dinge in ihrem Sinn zu richten. Fox Searchlight Pictures and Regency Enterprises präsentieren eine New Regency / M Productions / Le Grisbi Production mit einem herausragenden Star-Ensemble. In den Hauptrollen zu sehen sind der brillante Michael Keaton, Zach Galifianakis, Edward Norton, Andrea Riseborough, Amy Ryan, Emma Stone, Naomi Watts, Lindsay Duncan, Merritt Wever, Jeremy Shamos, Bill Camp, Damian Young. Regie führte Alejandro G. Iñárritu (BABEL, AMORES PERROS). Das Drehbuch stammt von Iñárritu, Nicolás Giacobone, Alexander Dinelaris, Jr. und Armando Bo. Für die Produktion zeichnen verantwortlich Iñárritu, John Lesher (END OF WATCH), Arnon Milchan (12 YEARS A SLAVE) und James W. Skotchdopole (DJANGO UNCHAINED). Ausführende Produzenten sind Christopher Woodrow (KILLER JOE), Molly Conners (FROZEN RIVER) und Sarah E. Johnson (WISH I WAS HERE). Des weiteren gehören zum Filmteam Kameramann Emmanuel Lubezki, ASC/AMC (GRAVITY); Produktionsdesigner Kevin Thompson (MICHAEL CLAYTON); der Schnittstammt von Douglas Crise (BABEL) and Stephen Mirrione, A.C.E.

Iñárritus existentieller Komödie BIRDMAN erhofft sich Riggan Thomson (Michael Keaton) durch seine Inszenierung eines ambitionierten neuen Theaterstücks am Broadway, neben anderen Dingen, vor allem eine Wiederbelebung seiner dahin siechenden Karriere. Zwar handelt es sich um ein ausgesprochen tollkühnes Unterfangen – doch der frühere Kino-Superheld hegt größte Hoffnungen, dass dieses kreative Wagnis ihn als Künstler legitimiert und jedermann, auch ihm selbst, beweist, dass er kein abgehalfterter Hollywood-Star ist.

Iñárritu selbst, so sagt er, konnte sich in vielen Momenten von Riggans Geschichte wieder erkennen, besonders in jenen, die sich mit der vergänglichen Natur des Erfolgs und mit der Frage nach dem, was im Leben wirklich zählt, beschäftigen. "Ich wollte die permanenten Ego-Kämpfe verdeutlichen und die Vorstellung, dass, egal wie viel Erfolg man in Bezug auf Geld oder Ruhm hat, doch alles eine Illusion ist. Es ist zeitlich begrenzt. Wenn man den Dingen nachjagt, von denen man glaubt, dass man sie will, und die Menschen endlich dahin kriegt, dich anzuerkennen, dann entdeckst du bald die Vergänglichkeit dieser Freude." Iñárritu sieht Riggan "als eine allzu menschliche Figur": "ich betrachtete ihn als eine Art Don Quijote, dessen Komik aus dem Missverhältnis, dem permanenten Ungleichgewicht zwischen seinen hochtrabenden Absichten und der trivialen Wirklichkeit, die ihn umgibt, entsteht. Im Grunde ist es die Geschichte von uns allen". "Ich liebe jene schwankenden, unsicheren Charaktere, die von inneren Zweifeln und Widersprüchen angetrieben werden … mit anderen Worten, die so sind wie jeder, den ich kenne. Riggans Entscheidungen haben sich als schlecht erwiesen, und das betrifft vor allem die Menschen, die ihm nahe stehen. Während seines ganzen Lebens hat Riggan Liebe mit Bewunderung verwechselt. Und als er schließlich die Belanglosigkeit des letzteren erkennt, muss er auf schmerzhafte Weise lernen, sich selbst und die anderen zu lieben. " Keaton meint zu seinem Rollencharakter: "Ich betrachtete Riggan einfach als einen Menschen. Allerdings ist das Schauspielerdasein ein Beruf, der eine ganz besondere Art von Persönlichkeit voraussetzt. Man besitzt von vorneherein eine extreme Selbstbezogenheit, hat ein großes Ego. Und hier hat man es mit einem Kerl zu tun, der alle diese Qualitäten besitzt und Amok läuft, um es mal vorsichtig auszudrücken." In Riggans gequältem Ego ist die Linie zwischen Realität und Illusion papierdünn – und manchmal überhaupt nicht vorhanden. Der Schatten von Birdman, seines ständigen, nörgelnden Begleiters, ist stets da, ob es Riggan nun gefällt oder nicht. "Er bricht zu einem Selbstbestätigungstrip auf. Es ist eine "ich"-Reise, ein Ego-Trip. Und als er gegen seine Mittelmäßigkeit kämpft, wiederholt sein Ego, treuer Freund und Quälgeist zugleich, die Verhaltensmuster, die Riggan gerne hinter sich lassen möchte. Es konfrontiert ihn mit seinen vielen Beschränkungen und seinen wahnhaften Zügen. Dieser Prozess hat gleichzeitig etwas tragisches, komisches, reales und auch etwas sehr surreales an sich", erklärt Iñárritu. "Birdman ist Riggans Super-Ego, und aus Birdmans Sicht hat Riggan seinen Verstand verloren, wenn er dieses Stück, das sich zweifellos jenseits seiner Liga befindet, inszeniert. Aus Riggans Sicht ist es Birdman, der seinen Verstand verloren hat. Doch aus einer überzeitlichen Perspektive ist beides bedeutungslos. " Wie in allen von Iñárritus Filmen wirft er auch in BIRDMAN mittels der Filmcharaktere rund um Riggan im Zentrum einen tiefenscharfen Blick auf die menschliche Existenz: ein virtuoser Hochseilakt zwischen Komödie und Pathos, Illusion und Wirklichkeit, der viele Interpretationen

These rhetorical elements of the job are not prescribed in the Constitution and as a result it is the presidents themselves who help shape the cultural understanding of presidentiality, of what it means to be president. When President Barack Obama participated in a “Slow Jam the News” comedy sketch on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon in 2012, he took the rhetorical presidency to a place it had never been before.

To reach those necessary goals, we strategically use an array of interconnected channels and platforms to transform not only the media landscape but also a cul- ture in which women’s and girls’ voices, stories, experiences, and images are nei- ther suffciently amplifed nor placed on par with the voices, stories, experiences, and images of men and boys. Our strategic tools include monitoring the media; commissioning and conducting research; and undertaking other special initiatives to spotlight gender and racial bias in news coverage, entertainment flm and television, social media, and other key sectors. Our publications include the book “Unspinning the Spin: The Women’s Media Center Guide to Fair and Accurate Language”; “The Women’s Media Center’s Media Guide to Gender Neutral Coverage of Women Candidates + Politicians”; “The Women’s Media Center Media Guide to Covering Reproductive Issues”; “WMC Media Watch: The Gender Gap in Coverage of Reproductive Issues”; “Writing Rape: How U.S. Media Cover Campus Rape and Sexual Assault”; “WMC Investigation: 10-Year Review of Gender & Emmy Nominations”; and the Women’s Media Center’s annual WMC Status of Women in the U.S.
