Twelve Films At Christmas - 11

Yes, yes, I know that it's not Christmas any longer but I've not watched quite as many films as I usually do. I'll get there, don't worry.

Today we have something gloriously and calculatingly weird, Being John Malkovitch. A puppeteer working his days in a shrunken half storey office space (that is only the start of the weirdness) discovers a portal to the mind of John Malkovich and he and his alluring business partner set out to exploit the portal commercially. Soon the portal has taken control of four lives - the puppeteer, his wife, the alluring partner and Malkovich himself (yes he is in the picture). It's bonkers and very well done. 8/10.
