Birdman is a movie about a theater play that tells a lot about movies, movie stars, actor and Hollywood.

I wonder why it is subtitled The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance.

Is it meant as ...

Ignorance is bliss

... or more like ...

beati pauperes spiritu - Blessed in spirit are the poor.

I think it's safe to say that nothing in that movie is done randomly.

After all, the movie goes to great lengths :

• in casting Michael Keaton in the role of a washed up super hero star
• having Edward Norton as a difficult meddling actor
• having Noami Watts giving a sapphic kiss to a distraught woman.

Also do you think that actor other than Keaton that recently lost his ways shooting blockbusters and soulless franchises feel concerned by the message of the movie?

Maybe.
