Phantasmagoria first. To live in your head.
"In the future, everyone can become world famous for 15 minutes" (Andy Warhol)
It is enough to simply call this film an absurd and a sick fantasy of a screenwriter. They say that people shot a completely illogical film, thereby striking the imagination of the frivolous viewer. It is even easier to publicly shout that this is a great philosophical creation with a lot of meanings that will not become understandable to the primitive and near homo sapiens. But to see something of your own, subject only to your mind and close only to your vulnerable soul - truly an idea for which you should see the fantastic drama “Being John Malkovich”. Although two words to fully define the genre specificity of the tape is like calling Crime and Punishment a book about the murder of an old woman.
This film gives every minute new food for thought, because the metaphors are scattered here in the most unexpected and nondescript moments. This is nothing more than a philosophical puzzle with a markedly insane plot. In the course of the film, trying to analyze what he saw is meaningless. Only after the final credits should try to put this farce together. Directed by Spike Jonze, his debut at 2 o'clock screen time put in an insane amount of ideas, while serving the dish without pathos and pathos, with a touch of irony and light absurdity. Here, the puppeteer's belief that he is destined to become great, mercilessly breaks into a gloomy reality. Here is played the most unexpected love triangle, the development of which starts from nowhere and flies to nowhere. Here, perhaps, is the most eccentric scene in the history of cinema, when John Malkovich falls into his own head. The director allowed himself to make some kind of firework of ideas that throw out to our faces without pity.
The uniqueness of this film is also in the fact that it does not use the standard scheme - to show a hero with whom the viewer will be able to associate himself in order to simplify the perception of what he saw. Each character of the film uses the other to achieve their own goals, looking for a doll for manipulation. Here, all anti-heroes, because to a greater or lesser extent cause rejection by their actions. This and Craig (John Cusack) - a talented puppeteer who does not shine the realization of his talent. Therefore, once in the head of Malkovich, he thinks that in this way he will realize the dream. But now the game of dolls turned into a game by people, and the hero loses himself. This is also Lottie (Cameron Diaz) - a nondescript girl who is fixated on animals, for which Malkovich has become an opportunity to experience those emotions that she lacked. And again, fascinated, she begins to tear down her own world in reality. This and Maxine (Catherine Keener) is a cold and calculating pragmatist who, with the help of John, simply fulfills all his whims. Each of the characters needed John Malkovich. They built someone else's universe, not thinking about their existence. So in life, we always want to go in someone else's skin, we love to think for others, without noticing how our own lives are falling apart. Negatively assess the acting game simply does not work. Cusack and Diaz re-created completely atypical roles for themselves, and Kiner earned an Oscar nomination with her masterly performance.
Throw out what he saw from the head is absolutely impossible. First of all, you reflect on the versatility of human nature and its expression in the acting game. How much I can hide in one person! Plunging deeper, there is a feeling of fear. And what if there is someone in my head leading all the actions? It looks like paranoia, but because it does not become easier. The motion picture gives you the opportunity to look inside yourself and find something intimate there.
The film “Being John Malkovich” is unique in that it allows you to perceive yourself completely from different sides. For some, this is an absurd comedy, for others - a social drama about an unrealized person. Someone at all will perceive what he saw as a farce, which you just need to watch, but do not try to analyze. Quote Brecht, "we must find a reality that will surprise and shocking," beloved Malkovich, in this case, is more and more used. A film that asks you a lot of questions, the answers to which are purely intimate. Even after 14 years, the problems raised by the timing, continue to be relevant and hit right on target. This is removed very rarely, so it is absolutely impossible to pass by. Now the phrase “well where we are not” is perceived a little differently ...
P.S. Initially, the producers offered to make the film "To be Tom Cruise." Try to rethink the film from a new perspective. There are only more questions, right?
