Episode 143 Being John Malkovich
Ryan’s season of meta movies just wouldn’t be complete without at least one Charlie Kaufman movie! And while Adaptation is probably the more correct choice, he’s chosen the highly absurd yet completely digestible fun nugget, Being John Malkovich (1999). Some highlights from this brilliant piece of cinema include Catherine Keener as the chaotic evil Maxine, Cameron Diaz sporting some OTT hair, and John Malkovich himself dancing Craig’s Dance of Despair and Disillusionment. Nothing but effervescent praise this week as we retire an old catch phrase, usher in a new one, and follow up with Darren Dewes about this year’s astonishing Oscar results, this week on Ex Rated Movies!
