Adaptation.

"The fact that this movie is the result of Charlie Kaufman’s real-life writer's block and that he turned in this script instead of an actual adaption of The Orchid Thief is just incredible. It's one of the ballsiest moves made by any writer in Hollywood and resulted in the most amazing meta-narrative. The story is so good that it's almost overwhelming; but that, mixed with how weird Nicolas Cage's dual performance is, makes this one of the most unique films of all time."

"This movie just spoke to me ..."

"A brilliant and wonderful movie. "

"The only Charlie Kaufman film I like (I think)"

"“He says that we have to realize that we all write in a genre, and we must find our originality within that genre.”"

"Had to watch this for my film class and it gave me an existential crisis. It was really good, but also made me realize how in my head I can be "

"This is…..a wild ride "

"I read The Orchid Thief and was excited to see this film. Is it an Adaptation? Hard to say but it’s pure brilliance. "

"It's like Being John Malkovich, but with less Malkovich and just the right amount of Cage."

"It's no Malkovich, but it's fully aware of that fact, and that's what makes it an enduring piece of cinema."
