Plot
"This must-see film is the most clever, best-acted movie of the year, with Nicolas Cage, Meryl Streep and Chris Cooper working at the top of their games for...the creators of "Being John Malkovich." -- Bob Strauss, LA Daily News Director Spike Jonze delivers a stunningly original comedy that seamlessly blends fictional characters and situations with the lives of real people: obsessive orchid hunter John Laroche ( Cooper), New Yorker journalist Susan Orlean (Streep), Hollywood screenwriter Charlie Kaufman (Cage), and his Twin brother Donald (also Cage). As Charlie struggles to adapt Orlean's best-selling book "The Orchid Thief", he writes himself into his own movie. The various stories crash into one another exploding into a wildly imaginaitve film. ADAPTATION, the year's most talked about movie is at once a hilarious drama and a moving comedy. "Two very enthusiastic Thumbs Up!" -- Ebert & Roeper
