Being John Malkovich


IMDB
First time viewed: No
Current Release: No
Watched With: Paul

Wow I haven't seen this film in many years. My first encounter with Spike Jonze and Charlie Kaufman. And this time watching it through I recognised David Fincher in there.

I remember the great elation experienced watching this the first time when I realised that people can write stories about anything they want, logic be damned. Obviously I'd seen hundreds of illogical stories before but none of the hit as hard as this. I love the way Kaufman is so overt with theme but plays with them in interesting ways. And it's very funny.

So great to see again on bluray.
