Writer-director Charlie Kafuman eviscerates the state of big Hollywood studio films and their brainwashed viewers, calling them 'garbage.'
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Charlie Kaufman eviscerates the state of mainstream Hollywood movies. Kaufman is an acclaimed screenwriter and director known for his outside-the-box independent fare including Anomalisa, Being John Malkovich, Synecdoche, New York, and the much-beloved Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, which earned him an Oscar win for Best Original Screenplay.
“At this point, the only thing that makes money is garbage. It’s just fascinating. It makes a fortune, and that’s the bottom line. It’s very seductive to the studios but also to the people who engage and become the makers of that garbage, especially if they’re lauded for the garbage because they don’t have to look inward or think long about what they’re doing.
The diet is so corrupted and has been for so long. It’s like if you eat sh*t all your life, you want sh*t. If you eat processed food, you crave it. And you wouldn’t if you hadn’t been fed it all your life. That’s what the movie machine does and I find it really offensive. It makes me angry. If the agenda is to sell a product and if that product is the movie or something within the movie, it can’t be art.”
