DIE SZENERIE: Nachdem der Puppenspieler Craig Schwartz herausgefunden hat, dass in seinem Büro ein Portal für 15 Minuten in den Kopf des Schauspielers John Malkovich führt, initiiert sein Schwarm, die emanzipierte Maxine, ein nächtliches Geschäft, in welchem man für $200 für ebenjene Zeitspanne "John Malkovich" sein kann. Dieser wiederum, nach einigen Ereignissen mit Maxine inzwischen Verdacht schöpfend, folgt dieser zum Bürokomplex und fordert Rechenschaft von Schwartz und Maxine. Als er von ihrem Geschäft erfährt, besteht er darauf, selbst das Portal zu benutzen. Mit einer absurden Konsequenz.

Zurecht eine Classic Scene. Wirklich ein absurder, irrwitziger Moment in einem fabelhaften Film. '99 war ein großartiges Jahr.
