Heaped with reward and panegyrics as one of many most interesting display actors of his technology, pilloried and parodied as an anything-for-a-paycheck hambone with a weak spot for bizarre wigs and prostheses, Nicolas Cage is a one-man sideshow, a combination of Marlon Brando, Robert Mitchum, Lon Chaney, and a stick of TNT who takes again “critical thespian” status every time he needs to, dives into grindhouse materials and Academy Award hopefuls with the identical mad enthusiasm, and by no means appears to be having something lower than a complete blast in entrance of the digital camera. From blockbusters to broody neo-noirs, from eating on cockroaches to trying to find foraging pigs, a tribute to the inimitable and unattainable to pin down Nic, a prodigious and untamed expertise whose kabuki mannerisms, off-the-wall accent work, and go-for-broke brio have been delighting discerning moviegoers for nearly 40 years.
