Being John Malkovich

In Week 4 there will be a screening 'Being John Malkovich'. This film links in with the lecture, which focues on identity. It also relates to the online lecture for Week 5, which addresses identity in the context of celebrity.

"The film raises questions about the nature of identity, and how some people are only completely free when their real self is hidden behind a mask or beneath a costume." (Jared Baldwin)
