The man, the myth, the legend, Nicholas Cage has a new movie out in the theatres, where he plays a fictionalised version of… himself. Called the The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent, the Tom Gormican- directed movie has been the topic of discussion on the internet for being the most Nicholas Cage movie of all time.
