The ending was multi-layered

and the perfect denoument to the creative writer trapped in a hollywood movie. The ending has several ways you can look at it in fact. The writing guru Robert McKee is expalining that you NEED something to happen a formula - a point lost on the artistic so Charlie but not on his brother Donald. Charlie is struggling to create a screenplay about a plant.

Does the film make fun of the bombastic money grabbing Hollywood process - or is it in fact making fun of arthouse film-makers who are trying to make a film so un-hollywood they end up being as boring as a movie about an Orchid? Ohh this is one of the beter films out there, because I'm not entirely sure that Jonze isn't making a commentary within a commentary about both sides of the film making fence - or about their audiences. Add a bit of pretension to the mix and this film is a hoot - even a rather touching hoot.
