The late Roger Ebert wrote that when you close your eyes, you could tell who was talking in Adaptation by the rhythm of speaking and tone of voice that Cage used for each twin. They walked differently, with distinct cadences to how they moved their shoulders and body. And just like real twins, Cage gave each twin a facial expression --- a resting face -- that was distinct to each twin. Master at his craft. underrated performance. He got an Oscar nomination for this but he its still an underrated performance, especially now when people are getting re-acquainted with Cage's filmography and finding out how much of a cinephile he is, and the young/er generation learning about him. Pedro Pascal and Tom Gormican in interviews have put Adaptation as theirtop favorite Cage movie.
i would so much want to see a movie where he and Charlie Kaufman playing themselves during the making of the movie adaptation.he just describe two wonderful scenes in that movie.
in a recent career retrospective video, Cage said the choreography and orchestra required to play the twin brothers is something he probably couldn't pull off now
Actually in the end Donald looks like the hero. And he was the one who pulled Charlie's script out of the abyss (ironically by adding all the cliches that Charlie said in the first scene he would never have -- car chases, drug running, shootings, etc).
Do you think so? I loved Donald. He was always supportive and respectful of his brother. Also at the end he helps Charlie become more confident and overcome his writer's block.
Maybe you shouldn't preface your opinion on a highly interpretive film like this with "Well actually" Because I frankly disagree with you. Which is fine but you come off like a douche.

Just wow yo this comment
Incredible performance by Cage, really showed his diversity as an actor.
cage's performance was quite an achievement. maybe his best work
this or Leaving Las Vegas
I think his best performance by far is Mandy but Adaptation was definitely more subtle acting and Mandy is more over the top acting.
Nicholas Cage is simply brilliant
@@georgeplunkitt5565 I've watched Mandy once. I've watched Adaptation five or six times.
Watch Dream Scenario.
Fantastic film. Cage, Streep and Cooper were phenomenal.
I totally agree with your comment. Screen slam has done show great interviews with Nicolas too. Thanks for that 😊
The whole movie is just one of the most beautiful, wild, amazing cultural artifacts available for streaming.

Portraying twin brothers AND portraying someone so insecure and blundering...- even twenty years ago, Cage had already really honed his craft.
I love his laugh 😃
I think he is gorgeous
this is great
my favorite movie
Best movie of all time
Key lime pie 🥧... lol 🤣
great!
well actually the movie does make Donald look bad. You sympathize with Charlie

@@Carlos-ln8fd oh I thought Donald was a figment of Kaufman's imagination. Kind of like Tyler Durden but the constructive version.
'The script kind of makes fun of me, huh?'
