Kaufman’s Ouervre Charlie Kaufman’s oeuvre consists of films that play with style, reality, and filmic structure to discuss deep issues of humanity. A Kaufman script has a few idiosyncrasies of style and structure that make it very clear who the writer is.

I've spent the past two and a half years making a film - probably a good 95% of my non-sleeping life during that time - and sometimes it seems it all comes down to these few weeks of release in theaters.

We Are Still Here is a film that I've been craving for awhile. I didn't know that I was at first, but once I was through to the end credits, I felt almost completely satisfied. I was only a little bit hungry for a better ending, but I'm watching my weight, so it's probably a good thing I wasn't stuffed. The flick had plenty of righteous stuff going for it. It had gore, it had spooks, it had chills and it had some awesome acting from most of cast, save for a couple people, who thankfully are…
