Being John Malkovich (1999)
Craig, a puppeteer, takes a filing job in a low-ceilinged office in Manhattan. Although married to the slightly askew Lotte, he hits on a colleague, the sexually frank Maxine. She's bored but snaps awake when he finds a portal leading inside John Malkovich: for 15 minutes you see, hear, and feel whatever JM is doing, then you fall out by the New Jersey Turnpike... (imdb)

Genuinely don't understand the hype. Malkovich himself is amazing. Diaz pretty much ruins any movie she's in for me though.

Kaufman and Jonze are a perfect team for this. I watched this a long time ago, back when the economic climate wasn't so wintery, and it never clicked. Now the themes Kaufman's playing with are all too obvious, but what's more: I just adored the filmmaking and originality on display. Also what helped is knowing who John Malkovich is.

More absurd than complex, BJM is a love-triangle focused on highlighting the futility of desire. Everyone in this film is working towards a rather shallow end goal, and stopping at nothing to make that happen. Deliciously weird.

What a headache. But oddly entertaining and funny. The cast also became quite a treat....I took away some Freudian provoking ideas, relevant to the characters. When you finally buy into this comic fantasy, it really is intense.

One of the weirdest films I've seen outside of Asia. Strange movies usually taper off their originality as they go along, or else struggle to progress the plot and find an ending. Not this film, which, through one hilarious scene after another, pursues multiple narratives of unrequited love, unappreciated talent, abandoning a humdrum existence for the unique and spectacular, and caps them off brilliantly with its climax.Excellent ensemble performance; every main character is weird yet relatable.

Original. To say the least. Although the character drama in the movie's unconventional love triangle doesn't quite ground Kaufman's absolutely brilliant, but undeniably bonkers ideas, it's a must-see.

There is nothing much to say really. Story is interesting. It never bores you. And hell it is not a fuckin comedy movie as criticker suggests it is. This movie is all about the philosophy. Would totally recommend anyone who likes thought-provoking movies. This isn't your one of the chill movies tho. Stay Malkovich people...
