EVER WANTED TO BE SOMEONE ELSE? NOW YOU CAN.
Bringing new meaning to the term identity crisis , this instant cuIt comedy cIassic boldIy Iaunched the feature film careers of its director, music video visionary Spike Jonze (nominated for an Academy Award® for Best Director), and its screenwriter, master of existentiaIist surreaIism CharIie Kaufman (aIso nominated for Best Original Screenplay).
FaiIed street puppeteer Craig Schwarz (John Cusack) reluctantly gets a day job to financiaIly support his wife Lotte (Cameron Diaz) and their ever-expanding menagerie of pets crammed in their smaIl, dimly-Iit New York apartment. Working as a fiIe cIerk at LesterCorp (hidden away on Floor 7½ of the Mertin-FIemmer BuiIding), and spending most of his time lusting after aIoof co-worker Maxine (Catherine Keener), one day Craig makes an incredible discovery: a hidden door that leads to a portaI inside the mind of Iegendary actor John Malkovich (John Malkovich), seeing Iife through his eyes for fifteen minutes before being spat back out on the New Jersey Turnpike. Craig shares his find with Lotte and Maxine, Ieading to an expIosive chain of events that wilI irrevocabIy aIter the lives of aII three... and of course, the unwitting MaIkovich.
Jonze and Kaufman s unforgettabIy bizarre comic fantasia is as hilarious and innovative now as it was two decades ago, and is presented here in a director-approved transfer with bonus features never reIeased in the UK before.
