Eternal Sunshine is not only my favourite Kaufman film but all-time my favourite movie to date. Being John is my second favourite and I also think Adaptation is genius. However, oddly, I didn't get Synecdoche at all, didn't really enjoy it one bit. May need to give it a rewatch.

quoted from magnolia12883:
- SYNECDOCHE, NEW YORK
- ADAPTATION.
- BEING JOHN MALKOVICH
- ETERNAL SUNSHINE OF THE SPOTLESS MIND
- CONFESSIONS OF A DANGEROUS MIND
- HUMAN NATURE (not one of the 5 great ones)
Wow, that's exactly what I was gonna write. I haven't watched Human Nature, though.

It's hard for me to rank his top 4, because I love them all equally and for different reasons. Of course my top 4 are:
Synecdoche, New York
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
Adaptation
Being John Malkovich
Confessions of a Dangerous Mind was a brilliant script. It's a shame George Clooney didn't want Kaufman too involved with the project, it could have been much better. It seems like a lot of the themes that Clooney didn't fully (not saying he's dumb, but they just seem unintentional) understand made their way to the film anyway. And Human Nature was supposed to be directed by Kaufman, but he gave it to Michel Gondry because Michel wouldn't leave him alone about making Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless mind, however Kaufman was wrapped up in Adaptation at the time. So to me, Human Nature almost feels half-assed, but it still has the themes that match Kaufman's other films. So even though I don't mark them as masterpieces like his other films, these two are still great.
