Antonia Quirke in the Financial Times muses on John Malkovich’s career:
I don’t think I’ve ever seen Malkovich – playing a super-paranoid yet cuddly gun maniac – look so delighted as he does in the scene in which he sits tucking into a large scone and cream. I suspect the now 56-year-old Malkovich may congeal into what we least expected: a lovable fatty. Not quite what one predicted on first seeing him in 1984 in The Killing Fields, super-sardonic and sitting up in bed with a sanitary towel strapped to his face doubling as an eye mask . . . yet he was still so cool. The guy you know in your heart is never going to call you back.
