BEING JOHN MALKOVICH

A Screenplay by Charlie Kaufman




INT. CHEERLESS ROOM - DAY

The room is bare, dusty. A ceiling fan turns. The
wall clock ticks. Craig, 30 years old and small, sits at
a collapsible card table. The only item on the table is a
book. Craig picks it up, looks at the jacket. It's entitled
"Sit." Craig opens the book. It reads: "sit sit sit sit
sit..." over and over, page after page. Craig closes the
book. He begins to stand, but thinks better of it, sighs.
He looks at the book again. It is now entitled "Die." He
opens it up. "die die die die die..." A rooster crows.


CUT TO:


INT. CRAIG AND LOTTE'S BEDROOM - MORNING

Craig jolts awake. A rooster stands on Craig's chest,
crowing. Lotte, also 30, in the middle of dressing for
work, hurries in and pulls the bird from Craig's chest.


LOTTE

Sorry, hon. I didn't know Orrin
Hatch was out of his pen. Good
morning.


Lotte leans down and kisses Craig on the forehead.

CRAIG
Morning.

LOTTE
Gotta run. Shipment of grub worms
coming in first thing.

CRAIG
