In one of the strangest movie to ever grace the silver screen, John Cusack plays a puppeteer named Craig Schwartz who finds a portal into the head of real life actor John Malkovich, played by... John Malkovich.
For fifteen minutes, a traveller can experience what it is like being John Malkovich. Craig plans to turn a profit from the discovery with the help of his love interest Maxine, played with brilliant keeness by Catherine Keener.
However, complications arise when Maxine and Craig's wife Lotte, played by a nearly unidentifible Cameron Diaz, decide to use the portal for personal gains.
REM frontman Michael Stipes helped produce Being John Malkovich, a brilliant script by Charlie Kaufman that many in Hollywood thought was unfilmable. The producers found the perfect director in famed video director Spike Jonze, who makes an impressive feature film debut.
NominOptions
NominOptions allow Traders to buy and sell the hottest Oscar contenders with these exclusive securities centered around the 72nd Academy Awards. The leading contenders for nominations are being offered in the eight major award categories.
Ten HSX NominOptions will be issued in each of the eight major categories on January 18th. Two weeks later, five more NominOptions in each of the eight categories will be offered. This second round of options will include all of the late-charging stars and films rushing into Oscar contention in the final two weeks before February 15.
Each NominOption is offered at H$2.40. The NominOptions will halt trading at 12 midnight on Sunday, February 14th in preparation for February 15th, when Oscar nominations will be announced by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.
Each option of a nominated film or star cashes out at H$7.20 (a nod to the 72nd year of Oscar), and those NominOptions failing to win a nomination on February 15th will delist at H$0.00.
