This movie was the most brilliant and bonkers independent film I ever saw. Technically brilliant. Getting inside the mind of the most brilliant and intense actors john malkovich was a piece extraordinary cinema. Charlie kaufman ending was very sudden. I wasn't sure what the was about. Aside from getting inside malkovichs head. Very funny film and this scene is just brilliant. You're in my head schwsrts
Why would you think that? It was critically and commercially a success. Do you just want to feel special? Thinking you're one of the only people who remember it? You're not.
its probably better now that I know who he is. I watched it when it first came out and I was thinking, are we supposed to know who he is or is he just some famous person in this story only? I feel he wasn't a good choice, great actor, but if no one knew who he was then it wasn't that special. Now being sean connery...some one way more famous, that would make sense. Though I wouldn't want to be sean connery, I am not sexist and I don't think its ok to hit women.
Can’t say I blame him. If I were him, I’d also be freaked out by what’s inside my own mind to a point I wouldn’t want others to see or know what it’s like to be me.
its ages....like some sort of fancy tea...It was ok when it first came out. Now it makes more sense, when more people know who he is. I don't think any one I knew actually knew who he was when this movie came out, but I was only 12.
That was 100% unscripted. The cars on the road were all driven by crew members and one of the people in one of the cars just decided to chuck a can at John. He didn't expect to connect. It was such a great take that it was included in the final cut. Apparently, John was pretty ticked about it.
@@TestUser-cf4wj This movie is where this clip is from. The man had to be added to be credited because he now had a line in the movie. Or so I've heard.
@@TestUser-cf4wj He was an extra with no lines. He improvised the line and because that scene was included in the final cut, he got a pay bump to an extra with speaking lines. :D
ok...if everythings connected then you must have missed the part where Marvin Boggs puts the fictional book down of shared universes and says how stupid an idea that is....Ya know, Marvin boggs, from RED...they the same actor not the same character...but if everythings connected, then everything is garbage. If it needs something else to stand on.
I remember laughing so hard at this scene. All building up to it I was thinking "What crazy shit will happen when he goes into his own portal?". And it exceeded my expectations!
That hey malkovich think fast was improvised by that extra On the spot after a night of getting drunk the reaction is genuine and unexpected but it was so authentic they decided to use it they had to credit the guy and pay him more and even get him sag registered
False rumor. Malkovich debunked that in a 2013 AMA on Reddit. Q: Were you actually pissed when that extra threw that can at your head? A: “on the contrary, spike jonze wanted to cut it because we were late that night and he felt no one would be able to hit me on the head with a half full can of beer from a passing car, and about 70 or 80 sets of hands shot up on the crew saying they would like to try. eventually the task fell to johnny cusack's writing partner and he nailed it on the first try.”
@@Bobaklives It's such a stupid rumor too can you imagine being an extra and having the chutzpah to throw a beer can at a lead actor's head without warning as a joke on camera, you'd get fired and maybe even sued
I think it’s hilarious how John Malkovich goes in incognito, then they find out who he is, and then he finds out the embarrassing secret they’ve been hiding from him.
Yep, that is definitely one of the descriptions of all time... So analytical. Keep researching man, the world needs more thorough deep dives into art pieces like yours 👏👏👏👏
I remember this scene differently.. when he was exited from his portal and the guy that was in the portal with him comes out second he says that really mind f***** me that time
I know this movie word for word. I have since it came out. It’s my favorite of ALL time. I know the alternates and BTSs and I’ve probably seen it more than anyone has. At this point, I am naming myself it’s Biggest Fan.
how about that wild alternate ending? would have loved to have seen that. its crazy they kept parts in the real movie that sets up the alternate ending
can you explain the scene where the older guy talks about being lost in the subconscious. Also I didn’t understand how all the older people go into his mind before midnight?
specially back in 1999 when no one heard of John Malkovich, he was mostly in garbage before this so THIS is his major break out role. Granted Man in the iron mask and Con Air were good, it wasn't good because of John Malkovich. So really he mostly was in bad movies.
@@jamesmeppler6375 I first saw him in (and liked him in) "In the Line of Fire" with Clint Eastwood, which came out 6 years before this movie. I seem to remember he was recognized as being a stand out in that movie. Con Air came out just two years before this one, but was also pretty good. He tends to do odd roles.
My question is did the guy already in John Malcovich see the confrontation between John and Craig or was he also in the world where everyone was John Malcovich or both.
My guess is both. At whatever point the guy entered the portal, he saw John's investigation of J.M. Inc. and saw the Malkovich nightmare as Malkovich saw it. He comes out of the portal at the end saying it was amazing this time
Ditto. Also, I liked him and the movie what was that one where he played the villain and Clint Eastwood played the Secret Service agent protecting the president what was that movie called?
on set story aside, props to the guy who (in world) recognised Malkovich at night from behind from a moving car and had the presence of mind to bean a can at him while coming up with a hilarious line.
That is (reportedly) not what happened. The cars driving by were all crew members, but while there was time to try only a few takes, the director was dubious that anyone would be able to throw the "can" accurately enough to actually hit Malkovich, but it connected on the first try.
0:57 obviously the genius of this scene is he can literally watch all these terrorists go into his brain totally unnoticed at the same time how ironic typical uncanny experience of imposters
Dear recepeant, You are invited by the Rococo family to the November 18th year 2115 movie staring Hollywood actor John malcovich.

I hear assloads of complaining about there not being any originality in Hollywood these days. For reference this movie did very poorly in theaters and not so great on home video.
And here I was thinking everyone forgot just how freaking great this movie is

Malkovich's talent is being able to say the most ridiculous things emphatically and with complete conviction.
"Right this way Mr. Malkovich; compliments of the house!" *LMAO!*
"I have been to the dark side. I have seen a world no man should see." Poetic, as is everything John Malkovich says.
Technically Charlie Kaufman's words
Can’t say I blame him. If I were him, I’d also be freaked out by what’s inside my own mind to a point I wouldn’t want others to see or know what it’s like to be me.
" next time we meet one of us will d*e"
Event horizon
this movie hasnt aged a day. just as trippy and surreal as when it came out

“I will see you in court!”
Good luck explaining that in court
The closer he gets to the exit, the louder his name becomes. I chalk it up to existential angst.
"Hey Malkovich, think fast!"
OUCH!

Orsen Bean’s speech impediment…Floor 71/2…Lottie vs. Maxine…Lottie AND Maxine…”I’m leaving acting to be a puppeteer.”…Never gets old.
Malkovich has some nice Malkovichs
"That was no simulation!!!"
We will see
Charlie Kaufman is such a warped genius! Loved this movie and the Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.
Imagine Malkovich meeting with a lawyer about all this..
His lawyer would gear him out then send a bill.
lol
even if its real...you would be wasting the lawyers time because its not illegal....so why would you waste a lawyers time?

John Malkovich is a great actor
I mean just ask Matt Damon
Matt Damon is also good as well
The writing is genius level stuff
I'd like to see that court case.
This is such an incredible film.
It was amazing this time!
The best part is that the guy throwing the can was literally just some guy.
Legendary.
"What are all of you guys doing in here?"
"Oh just... Being John Malkovich"
Best scene
It’s my head! Lol

Mandela effect?
Were you stoned?
I remember when I see this for the first time in the summer of 2000 on TV 😂 That's so fucking strange for me hahaha.

Such a bizarre idea for a movie. I can imagine when it was first pitched to the studio (and to John Malkovich). "Wait a second... Say that again."
There's a GQ youtube video on John Malkovich where he talks all about it

You can't malkovich that much malkovich, without malkovich'ing the whole malkovich.. Malkovich!

My guess is both. At whatever point the guy entered the portal, he saw John's investigation of J.M. Inc. and saw the Malkovich nightmare as Malkovich saw it. He comes out of the portal at the end saying it was amazing this time
yea I think he switched to the amalgamations of john malkovitch at the same time John did.
@@floogandoogan703 maybe even multiple versions.. Which is psychedelic.
Both

3:51 I think this is one of the funniest movie scenes ever. I hadn’t seen the movie since its original release, and it didn’t disappoint!
Why don't we get original movies like this anymore? No no no, we need another Transformers movie.

great movie
If Malkovich was a pokemon
I laughed SO HARD at this scene...
One of the best movies of all time
Malkovich malkovich!! Malkovich malkovich malkovich, malkovich malkovich..
Malkovich!
My favorite is lounge singer Malkovich-
strappy heels and all, very malkovich.
Ever since I saw this scene, I find myself singing "Malkovich, Malkovich. Malkovich, Malkovich," to myself without even thinking about it.
I never heard of John Malkovich until I saw this movie. It made no sense except you can take control of some one..but now I know hes an actual actor.
I didn't even look this up, I was just recommended
It's my HEAAAAAAADDDD!!!!!! LOL
he has seen a world no man should see
The guy who threw the can was a drunk extra who wasn’t supposed to throw the van or say the line😂
The OG Christoph Waltz
Watch ⌚️ ⏱️ the way John walks 🚶♂️ with low ceiling above ...only pros can do this ...small detail = great performance
Look it up. The guy who drives by and yells " hey malkovich" and throws a can at malkovich's head is actually a random guy and that was not scripted.
Alfalfa for the rabbits.
Fun fact, the beer can throwing and reaction at the end of the clip were unscripted.
That CGI deepfake was pretty impressive for 1999, even Captain America skinny Steve scene don't even hold a flame to rhis
Pour one out for Mr. Hiroshi who waited in line all that time just to end up back in the line.
God, I loved this film.
Somebody was definitely trippin out when they made this movie 😂
How did the “think fast” guy recognize the back of Malkovitchs head in a cap?
He was a drunk extra. He wasn’t supposed to talk OR throw the cam. John’s pain is real
He’d have no problem online dating all he’d have to do is think about being lonely and they’d be at his front door.
🤣😂🤣😂very funny scene malkovich
Why does Maxine shout "Dorothy!" when they burst into the room?
People think I'm John Malkovich all the time.
wait what
ive seen trailers of this movie
i did not know this was the premise
That’s was some acid
