Adaptation

Oh, good lord. Somehow, this movie escaped my notice when it came out. I feel like it was made expressly for me! A reality-bending story about a frustrated writer who is terrible in social situations? Who else could this be for? It's deep and wonderful and fun. There are layers of meaning that I am sure escaped me, too. It definitely goes on my non-existent list of top ten favorite movies.

  1. Have you missed Charlie Kaufman's other greats, like Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind or Human Nature? He's probably my favorite screenwriter.

  2. I've seen Sunshine and Malkovich, and I'm eager to see Human Nature and Synecdoche.
