Charlie Kaufman

Is the man! I love his screenplay. He stretches your mind's ability to comprehend what the hell is going on.

He's done films such as Eternal Sunshine for the Spotless Mind which featured Kate Winslet and Jim Carey, it's one of the few films where Carey plays a straight role. He can do more than slapstick which is good. The story is really orignial and compelling. I loved it.

He's also done Being John Malkovich, Adaption and Synecdoche, New York; which are all fairly trippy and mind bending films. I suppose they are a bit Alice in Wonderlandesque but for adults. All weird and wonderful. I would lap up anything he wrote. He's a very playful and intriguing playwright.
