John Malkovich's film, The Dancer Upstairs, is a drama based on Sendero Luminoso (The Shining Path), a powerful Maoist political movement in Peru c. 1980/90's. Specifically, the film looks at the brilliant police work employed to apprehend Sendero's idiosyncratic leader, Abimael Guzman. Though it is dramatized, it is an accurate depiction of very real, very consequential events. Director Malkovich captures the bizarre and fear filled atmosphere of the time and place with brilliance and aplomb.
He comes off at first, as pretentious and arrogant, but then you realize, he's extrordinarily humble and honest.. I would love to have a conversation with him.
when meeting a fashion designer you almost have to dress badly or weird as a joke to not only break the ice but to not appear inexperienced if you try to dress well and they think its bad... then you lose a job hahah just cause of what u wear.... well ... i guess its the same with any interview... lol
and I meant to say IGNORANTS not ignorance...but what can I ask from a NERD like you right?put some horse glasses on your ugly nose next time and read better...you BITCH!!!
@mjfreaklove Dude, this is the internet, name calling gets you mocked and nothing more. Also, what is with using the term "nerd" derogatorily on the internet? That's a surefire way to lose all credibility with the internet community at large.
@Jewboyrules sorry but this is part of his nickname which btw he chose for himself it wasn't me who chose the nickname for him;I'm not on youtube to insult anyone but if I'll be insulted or provoked by someone I have the right to reply them...It's called FREEDOM OF SPEECH.
@mjfreaklove I never said you can't, I'm just saying it's pointless since it's self defeating. Hell, you could call him a 'cock blowing fagface' but on top of being somewhat silly sounding, you would only sound abraisive and homophobic, thereby making yourself seem like a douche and making nobody want to be your friend. Also it's rude, have some manners young man.
@Jewboyrules I'll have manners with someone who respect me and not with someone who judge me without knowing me.He doesn't deserve respect nor manners because he's a moron.You can't be a gentleman or a lady with an idiot who doesn't know anything but to curse or offend you.And one more thing:I DON'T NEED SO-CALLED FRIENDS WHO ONLY KNOW HOW TO JUDGE OTHERS.
@mjfreaklove I never said you need judgemental friends. In fact, I would agree with you that having those kinds of friends is usually a bad idea. All I'm saying is calm down. If someone makes you mad you don't have to take it out on your poor little keyboard.
I agree. Mr. Malkovich is a genius at acting. The scene in Death of a Salesman where he breaks down after finding his Father (Dustin Hoffman) has cheated gave me chills and was so intense, I almost could not watch it.
the best actor alive...but he is a...ähm...you know, if somebody would tell me he killed like a hundred people or something i wouldn't be surprised at all.

Thankyou for this special video sirsuxalot!! Do you like that show major dad? how about highway to heaven or enev gumby? I'd like to watch tony danza in charles in charge..."I want charles in charge of me"! and everybody sing along now!!
john malkovich - you are great and so happy that Mr Mudd is producing movies worth watching like ghost world, juno, art school confidential young adult and now perks of being a wallflower
@ItchyGuy87 Not as odd as he seems as he's a family man with children he spoke movingly of on a chat show saying it makes him emotional that his children are growing up and he misses things he could only do with them when they were little and mentioned carrying his boy on his shoulders
@bansheewhiskey First of all, way to assume I'm American. Even though I am. Second, I never said I worshipped him. I don't. If he wasn't an actor he'd have to have some other job. Sure, he probably wouldn't be as rich or famous. I think Malkovich deserves it more than most though. I agree that celebrity worship is disgusting.
Never thought of John Malkovich as a conservative. He always gave me this liberal, hippie vibe with the way he talks and such. Either way, great actor.
@seans10 go die kid you are useless and I'm not here to argue I simply admire and respect John Malkovich I'm not losing my precious time with retards like you who only come on YT to curse others.YOU ARE USELESS!!!DIE PLEASE!!!And be it SOON!!
Everytime I see him I feel so honored to calling myself his devoted fan.....He never cease to amaze and fascinates me...I'm in love with this man's mysterious nature...I dream that one day I'll become a free spirit like him....
He should have won an Oscar or maybe tens of Oscars for being such an amazing actor,but,America....what can I say....they worship brad pitt but underestimate John Malkovich....ignorants.
@mjfreaklove don't forget Matt Damon. You know what Matt and Brad have in common? They have perfected the look of nervous confusion. You know why? Because they don't have a fucking clue how to act.
@seans10 hey you smart asshole guess what?I am proud to be an European,and the political views of John and Brad are not my business,so you are too fucked-up to come here and talk politics.Oh and prejudices dont make you more intelligent than me so take your prejudices and stick them deep in your ass.
