Being John Malkovich



A truely bizarre movie! Truely bizarre! But I loved it!

What an interesting concept! To be a puppeteer of a real person... the irony is that the person who discovered the portal, is an out of work puppeteer. Imagine living life through someone else. Seeing and believing you are someone else... And when you're done... you move onto the next shell.

Basically, this out of work puppeteer (played by John Cusack) goes to work as a file clerk... and the strange thing about where he works is that... the floor is only half a floor. Truely bizarre. People have to hit the stop button halfway on the way up a level on an elevator to force an opening to this... half floor. When you see them sitting down, everything looks okay actually... it's only that they can't stand up!

Anyway, as he's doing his job, behind a file cabinate, he finds a portal into John Malkovich's head. And with time... he slowly learns how to control it.

But the process in which things happen... is amazing... and how everything pieces together after this event... is truely bizarre! You definitely have to watch it!
