377. Frame Rate: Being John Malkovich (Feat. Brooks Brown)
🕑 Added 2021-04-16 13:01:02 +0000 UTC
Oh my Malkovich! Our resident Charlie Kaufman scholar, Brooks Brown, returns for the first major Kaufman feature release, Malkovich. The trio discusses the writer’s humble beginnings in comedy, his collaboration with Spike Jonze, and ultimately what separates his early scripts from his later scripts and direction. It’s truly a Malkovich you don’t want to miss, Malkovich!

Several of your disagreements with Brooks feel legitimately uncomfortable. I remember the same awkwardness about the Synecdoche episode.

Haha! Fantastic!

I loved the episode, and I have completely solved all Charlie Kaufman movies in this simple, four quadrant Venn diagram. I made this after a rewatch of Spotless Mind. I think this is right. https://imgur.com/gallery/J372ZUN
