#28 Being John Malkovich (1999)
Director: Spike Jonze
Actors: John Cusack, Cameron Diaz, Orson Bean, Catherine Keener, John Malkovich
Movie trailer:
Call me a wacko, I like crackpot movies. So, by definition, I like movies written by Charlie Kaufman. Being John Malkovich is a good movie; it’s weird, but there is an underlying message embedded that you can explore, if you want.
Movie quotes:
Lotte Schwartz: Don’t stand in the way of my actualization as a man.
Craig Schwartz: You see the world through John Malkovich’s eyes. Then after about 15 minutes, you’re spit out into a ditch on the side of the New Jersey Turnpike!
John Malkovich: This portal is mine and must be sealed up forever. For the love of God.
Craig Schwartz: With all respect, sir, I discovered that portal. Its my livelihood.
John Malkovich: It’s my head, Schwartz, and I’ll see you in court!
[Malkovich trudges off along the shoulder of the turnpike]
Craig Schwartz: [calling after him] And who’s to say I won’t be seeing what you’re seeing… in court?
