From director Spike Jonze and writer Charlie Kaufman ("Being John Malkovich") comes a tricky, self-reflective romp. Nicolas Cage stars as both the real-life Kaufman-struggling to adapt author Susan Orlean's (Meryl Streep) novel "The Orchid Thief," about a roguish Everglades flower lover (Best Supporting Actor Oscar-winner Chris Cooper), into a movie-and as Donald, Charlie's (fictitious) twin brother and a neophyte film writer. With Tilda Swinton, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Brian Cox. 115 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English.
