Oh my. He’s got on nice leather slippers, a paisley dressing gown, and boxer shorts, and has a 123-type Mercedes and a lovely red-brick wall in the background. If only we could see what’s in his hand – I bet it’s a Wusthof knife (or, knowing his preference for France, a Laguiole). Yes, even when he’s bringing teh crazy, Malkovich does it with elan.

Is that Alan Alda he’s beating up?

You know, I think it is! RUN, HAWKEYE!
It’s a hammer in his hand; if you click on the image, you can see the whole series of shots.
He does seem to be enjoying himself. Like Christopher Walken, I don’t think he’ll lose his marbles in old age; it just might slow him down enough to make him normal.

Meg the whole scene is pretty typical for Cambridge MA (where he lives.)

I can just hear “Get off my lawn” in a preppy accent.

Mmmm, I love Cambridge, my uncle’s lived there for 25 years.
Are they shooting this movie there?

Apparently, it’s being filmed in Brooklyn Heights.
