Being John Malkovich Official Trailer #1 - John Cusack Movie (1999) HD 

He was about to get on a plane and he needed something to read so his agent sent him the script and he thought it was great writing.

John actually suggested they do it about tom cruise instead because having his name IN the title felt narcissistic and would have better suited cruise.

@@TheNixon333 is that true !! Damn John is right, better suited Tom Cruise if talking about a narcissist.. Malkovich is a genius 😅

One executive said that why coudlnt it be being Tom cruise

That's disgusting

Sometimes it’s hard to believe this movie exists

how come?

Charlie Kaufman is the best screenwriter in the business

@@paulelroy6650 Don't for get his brother Donald.

​@@ColinFox didn't his brother die though?

Same, saw it age 15...freaked me out honestly

Wtf I watched this movie when I was 13 and now I'm watching it again at 28 and I never knew that was Cameron Diaz

@@DngrDanI straight up thought it was Geena Davis the entire movie

sha shazan ali agree!

Care to explain it? I dont really get it

@@gregsoon521 The odd, delightful, disturbing Being John Malkovich has a few bits of Shakespeare thrown in to the odd, delightful, disturbing mix. Malkovich, whose brain (in the film, at least) can be entered from an odd, disturbing tunnel, is rehearsing for a performance of Richard III, and we hear a few lines from the play and see a rehearsal interrupted. But the following use of Shakespeare is far more amusing than those incidental Shakespearean interjections. In this scene, John Malkovich's body, inhabited by a formerly-under-appreciated puppeteer, is watching a documentary about himself. Listen to what the announcer says about Malkovich's future: The key line-"Well, to quote the Bard, 'He's got the world on a string'"-is horrifically delightful on a number of levels. The documentary feels a need to work in a terrible pun, but it desires to give some credibility to its own nonsense. The answer? Shakespeare. The theme is caught up by Malkovich's next line, in which an unnamed and unreferenced authority called "the poet" utters some more seeming nonsense: "As the poet said, 'The puppeteer's voice need not merely be the record of man. It can be one of the pillars, the props to help him endure and prevail,' and I believe that.

Oh sorry are you okay?

I felt claustrophobic watching the movie..

Well, That's the brilliant mind of Charlie Kaufman

Agreed. It's been 4 years since I last watched it, and 20 years from its release, and there has never been another film like this.

@@soumyachandrakar8697 exactly

its BS

@@soumyachandrakar8697 because u are not smart

@@mastaization i know right! Hollywood is afraid to make more good movies like this because of m*rvel and its consequences on the film industry

I think it would be really cool (and I've seen people on pages like Reddit with the same thought) if they released a Virtual Reality experience of the film, you wake up as Craig Swhartz (hearing his thoughts through the day) , go to the office on the 7 1/2 floor, find the portal to Malkovich's mind and let the rest play out, I don't know if they'd have to make any changes to the plot. So you'd be in someone's mind in someone's mind

K P@@Chicklo11 I

The perseverance!

Yea dude shes in a bunch

She was everywhere even before she became critically acclaimed and famous.

tbf that was just a one-minute cameo though

You're one of those people who think an actors film career started in the first movie you saw them in

I was gona say sean lennon.

@@m.n.d5949 I was gonna say David Foster Wallace.

Leah Arun and he sounds a bit like Sean

I thought I was the only one who thought that

This guy knows what's up

Lmao this a materpiece?.

F dL thank you kind person

The fact that John Malkovich wasn’t nominated is a crime against humanity.

EXACTLY WHAT I WAS THINKING

And Michael Rotondo

Oh yeah

@@lilmissrockchick4962 Irwin R. Shyster?

Adaptationalisa Sunshine of the Ending Malkovich

@@EmilyOnTheMoon Adaptationalisa Sunshine of the Ending Malkovichecdoque, New York.

I would see all of those.

Zaith Kam Yes, he is in this movie xd

Actually, this movie Is in John Malkovich.

John Malkovich is the movie

We all are John Malkovich...

No

or on drugs

Come on! This was a very light form of abstraction. If you wanna provoke your schizophrenia watch Eraserhead or something in that taste.

Is that, is that from experience - friend?

Kcehclana Probe or Lighthouse

Charlie Kaufman, he also wrote other acclaimed (and surreal) movies such as: -Adaptation. (2002) -Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind (2004) -Synecdoche, New York (2008) -Anomalisa (2015) -Im Thinking Of Ending Things (2020)

Yeah, Michael Kamen was a legend.

You can watch Being John Malkovich (1999) Full Movie at *fullmoviesmedia(dot)com/being-john-malkovich-1999-full-movie* Thanks, Gregg

Not really... Its still confusing as hell

About all that is spoiled is that John Malkovich learns about the portal. I really don't see anything else someone could take away from this if they hadn't seen the movie.
