Charlie Kaufman

<< < (2/2)

Oli:
Eternal Sunshine is an amazing film.

Also Jim Carey is bloody brilliant in it, and I usually pass him off as a mediocre actor.

JLM:
I actually preferred Adaptation to Being John Malkovich, but that's because I'm a sucker for Metanarratives.  Plus the acting was just spiffier overall.

alyosha:
"You were him, weren't you?!"  is probably the best line in all of film.  Well, except for maybe "This could be the beginning of a beautiful friendship."

I guess I just have a soft spot for surreal film.  I loved the concept of Adaptation, but about 1/2way through, it just lost track of everything.  I still love the film, it just wasnt as good as BJM or Eternal Sunshine.  I didn't realize "Confessions of a Dangerous Mind" was his, I'll have to rent it...

If you like Kaufman, I'm going to suggest "Everything is Illuminated."  It has the indie feel, and the surreal humor of a Kaufman film, with amazing cinemetography and the beautiful backdrop of rural eastern europe.
