Adaptation. is usually the first movie I bring up as a counter-argument whenever someone says Nicolas Cage is a shitty actor. Yes, he’s been shitty in shitty movies, but he’s also been great in great movies. He’s an actor that requires a good director and a good script, because even when he’s at his worst, he never lacks the manic energy that’s required of him.
