White Noise is a disgracefully disjointed discourse on a dysfunctional family

As a fan of the Adam Driver- Noah Baumbach collaboration, I was looking forward to White Noise. It is hard to decode what director Noah Baumbach and actor Adam Driver were thinking while working on this weird kinky rambling piece of absurdist cinema filled with Grand Canyon-like holes that require astounding powers of gambolling and hopping to get to the other side. Or why, in the first place, Noah and Adam Driver after the masterly Marriage Story, decided to make this strange and incredibly soulless film about a chemical catastrophe in 1984 which has the Gladney family running for cover. The phoney feel-cooked film ends with all the characters dancing in a supermarket to an insanely catchy rock ‘n’ roll tune.
