Adaptation (there will be spoilers)

Because I love Kaufman. I love him! I love everyone in this movie! I love the parody, and the screen writing inside a screen writing inside a screen writing, and the... everything! It's just... such a mind fuck in the most realistic of ways, like everything he does. And it's hilarious. Watching Meryl Streep snort drugs and listen to the dial tone made me have one of the heartiest laughs I've had in a long time. One of those laughs that just keeps going with no effort. And I actually liked Nicolas Cage. I never knew that! And the Being John Malkovich behind-the-scenes, sort of not behind-the-scenes concept, it was just incredible.

It's just fantastic. Absolutely un.... something. I just saw it so wait for the praise to wear off a bit, then I'll converse.

There's nothing like this... other than other Kaufman scripts.

It's a life goal now:
I want to play Boggle with Catherine Keener.

This movie fucking owns. Really beautiful in a way I can't really convey to anyone who hasn't seen it.

Incidentally, it's actually Adaptation., with a full stop. No idea why.

I did not like the movie until about nine months ago...although I think I bought it when it was released on DVD. It's really good and I think Ophiel did a good job of describing the beauty of the film. I can't really describe it either.

But I love it.
