[kxl]

I had to share this... too funny

The exhibition, "Malkovich, Malkovich, Malkovich: Homage to Photographic Masters," will take place in November at the Catherine Edelman Gallery in Chicago.

Great, hilarious, nicely done!

Love the last one as Jagger - just look at that pouting mouth!

Damn. They're all so good.

Brilliant! I want to see John Malkovich as "Moonrise over Hernandez"...

Not a dud amongst them either, quite a technical achievement.

Obviously the guy has too much time on his hands.

In news just to hand the cult of celebrity shows no sign of abating.

Makes me wanted to drive to Chicago for first time!

 

[jubbaa]

Brilliant !

I looked at this the other day and was amazed at the variety and accuracy that these achieved with such success.

Someone needs to send Cindy Sherman a royalty check!

I read a comment that said that he should've also been Yoko Ono in that picture. That would've been pretty fun.

 

[YYV_146]

Haha. Hilarious. Need more of these.

 

[Huss]

Very good!
James Franco (actor) had an attempt at something like this called 'New Film Stills'.
Unfortunately it was not funny but smug.

I got right to the end of those, I tend to get bored within the first half-dozen, so that's a good sign (like I'm the arbiter of universal taste...). There are weaker ones, but some of them are really startlingly good.

Say what you like about the cult of celebrity, but I don't think you could call Malkovich up himself after these.
