A top pick on many critics
"best of" lists in 1999, director Spike Jonez absurd comic
fantasy sees John Cusack as a down-on-his-luck puppeteer, Craig Schwartz,
who discovers a portal into John Malkovichs brain. 15 minutes is all
he gets in Malkovichs head, before getting dumped onto the New Jersey
turnpike. Soon, everyone from his animal-loving wife (Cameron Diaz) to his
scheming co-worker Maxine (Catherine Keener), wants a go at turning it into
a money-making venture. One of the most original films to make an appearance
in a long time, its a sure bet that you havent seen anything
quite like it. |
