I thought the movie was quite interesting. However, why would you want to be someone else, even it is John Malkovich? Life is so unique and fascinating that I cannot help but think why did all those people want to be him. What were they escaping from? Boredom, depression, frustration?
All symptoms of a mindless consumeristic society, if I may say. It might be fun to be someone else for 15 minutes, but quite frankly doing something unique and daring in your own skin I much more fun.
I might have completely missed your point, if so I apologise 😬
