In this cult-favourite comedy, unemployed New York City puppeteer Craig Schwartz (John Cusack) reluctantly takes a temp job as a filing clerk for the eccentric Dr Lester (Orson Bean). While at work, Craig discovers a portal that leads into the mind of renowned actor John Malkovich. When he lets his co-worker Maxine (Catherine Keener) in on the secret, they begin an unusual business scheme and an odd relationship involving Craig's restless wife, Lotte (Cameron Diaz).

The genius of the film is that amidst the hilarity, in-jokes and situations that become more and more absurd, there’s also a pertinent examination of identity, celebrity and of who actually controls our actions.
