Sep 16 2008Hear Charlie Kaufman Talk About Things

Earlier today, my friend Kevin sent me these mp3s of Wired's entire two-and-a-half hour interview with Charlie Kaufman, and I can't stop listening to them. The notoriously reclusive writer discusses taking on the director's role with Synecdoche, New York, working with Spike Jonze, his career, neuroscience, and more, all spoken in the endearingly neurotic, timorous style you'd expect. Well done, Wired. How about you keep doing interviews like this and I'll keep pretending they're relevant to a technology magazine.

I can't wait for Synecdoche, New York to come out because thats where this ol' Bubba Gump resides. Come Stalk Meh Bitchez.

he looks like a creep O_o
who the hell is he?

@ Elmo

He's probably one of the most talented (living) screenwriters in Hollywood. He penned Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Being John Malkovich, Human Nature, Confessions of a Dangerous Mind, and (my favorite) Adaptation.

Did he really have a twin brother killed in an auto accident?

Oh thanks I rememer seeing a pic of him a long time ago
to bad you never see those guys, dumb people like me forget what they look like O_o

No, he didn't. The entire twin brother thing from Adaptation was fictional.
