Jonze's only misfire, and it's a downright shame if you ask me. Beastie Boys Story is a curious hybrid film, a mixture of documentary, storytelling, and one-man show (er, two-man show), all cut with rampant meta-textual "what are we doing?" interjections from Jonze, who speaks over his subjects, Adam "Ad Rock" Horovitz and Mike "Mike D" Diamond (Ad...
The breakout, debut film for Jonze and screenwriter extraordinaire Charlie Kaufman (and in some way, for the prolific John Malkovich), Being John Malkovich remains a wild blast of imagination, humor, unmerciful psychological examination, and raw bravado — though many elements age strangely, or do not age well at all, upon modern viewing.

Jonze won the Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay for his work on Her, to date the only feature film he directed that he has sole screenwriting credit on. I agree with this accolade and how it relates to the rest of Jonze's work — for the most part. When Jonze is working as a screenwriter himself, as opposed to, say, directing a Kaufman scre...

He has worked as an actor sporadically throughout his career, co-starring in David O.
