About this listen
https://paa.ge/popcornhour/en
This month on The Popcorn Hour, Matt and James dive into Being John Malkovich as their latest Criterion of the Month selection. The conversation explores the film’s bold concept, its darkly comedic tone, and the way it blends surrealism with deeply human questions about identity, control, and desire. Matt and James discuss how the film’s performances ground its most absurd ideas, how its screenplay reshaped what offbeat storytelling could look like in mainstream cinema, and why it continues to feel fresh decades later. Along the way, they reflect on the risks the film takes, the cultural impact it left behind, and what makes it such a perfect choice for the Criterion Collection.
