1999
John Malcovich, Cameron Diaz, Catherine Keener, John Cusack
Craig Schwartz (Cusack) isn't really living the high life, stuck in eternal unemployment as noone wants a professional puppeteer these days, and with an unattractive and whiny wife who he lost interest in a long time ago. He takes a filing job on the 7 1/2 floor of a very odd office bulding for an equally odd boss. After knocking a file behind a cabinet, Craig stumbles up the portal into the head of John Malcovich.....should he tell anyone about this and make something of his dreary life?
One of the oddest and most enjoyable films i have ever seen. It must have been quite a good feeling to be John and have have a whole film written about being inside of his head. Everyone gives a fantastic performance and Diaz is almost unrecognisable as the ugly and confused Lottie.
The score is fantastic and really emphasises how music can be used to convey our emotions when words are not enough.
10/10
