Why watch this film?
From the creators of Being John Malkovich and starring Tim Robbins and Patricia Arquette comes a deliciously twisted film with biting dialogue, wild twists and plenty of comic turns.
"Human Nature is a satirical romantic comedy directed by Michel Gondry and written by Charlie Kaufman (the same duo behind Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind). The film follows a quirky scientist (Tim Robbins), who discovers a man raised as a monkey in the wild (Rhys Ifans), and attempts to civilize him using scientific methods. When the scientist’s partner (Patricia Arquette), a naturalist who believes humans should retain their unique form of freedom, enters the picture, an unusual love triangle forms where civilization and nature collide. The cast also includes Miranda Otto, Peter Dinklage, and even Hillary Duff. If you enjoy Michel Gondry's wild surrealistic style, you'll likely enjoy this film, which will also get you thinking."
