Adaptation [2002]
Director: Spike Jonze
Actor: Nicolas Cage, Meryl Streep, Chris Cooper, Tilda Swinton
This movie is a psuedo-autobiographical story about a man trying to write a screenplay about a book on orchids. He’s a deeply socially disturbed person, very unsure of himself, and extremely critical of his own work.
The screenplay he ends up writing is the screenplay for this film. The star of the movie, is the screen writer of the movie, played by Nicholas Cage, who – after doing a lot of spam – finally makes something worth while again.
