Being John Malkovich
Program Details
Description
This dark, slyly bizarre comedy stars John Cusack as Craig Schwartz, a frustrated puppeteer who discovers a secret portal into the mind of actor John Malkovich (who plays himself). When Craig reveals his discovery to his animal-loving wife Lotte (Cameron Diaz) and frosty coworker Maxine (Catherine Keener), the result is a love triangle that is literally mind-boggling. Orson Bean and Mary Kay Place costar in this debut feature from music video director Spike Jonze.
