Anomalisa

Anomalisa, Charlie Kaufman’s latest film, is a perfect little nugget of weirdness and mundanity. Out in cinemas in the UK on March 11, Anomalisa is almost kitchen-sink, but kitchen-sink in a stop-motion world, and kitchen-sink à la Kaufman with a disorientating and cataclysmic plunge into the paranoid shadows of the human psyche.

Daniels

Daniels are Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert.

This absurdist film-making duo may hide their deep philosophical genius behind a smokescreen of bro-ness and potty humour but don’t be fooled, there’s nothing stupid about their work.
