Anomalisa

Anomalisa is a 2015 adult animated comedy-drama film directed by Charlie Kaufman and Duke Johnson from a screenplay by Kaufman, based on his 2005 audio play that explores the Fregoli delusion, a term Kaufman used as a pen name for himself. It incorporates elements of psychological drama, romantic comedy, and self-reflexive fiction in surrealist style, in a similar vein as Kaufman's film Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. Anomalisa follows the British middle-aged customer service expert Michael Stone (David Thewlis), who perceives everyone (Tom Noonan) as identical except for Lisa Hesselman (Jennifer Jason Leigh), whom he meets in a Cincinnati hotel. Kaufman's audio play premiered in Los Angeles, and featured the voices of Thewlis, Noonan, and Leigh.
