‘Him’, A Parody That Reverses the Gender Roles of the Characters in the Spike Jonze Film ‘Her’

Writer Chris Eggersten and director Adam Siegel have brilliantly reimagined the Spike Jonze film “Her” with “Him“, a parody reversing the gender of the characters.

“Her” is a touching love story that follows the budding romance between a high-waisted-jeans-loving hipster played by Joaquin Phoenix and a silky-voiced operating system voiced by Scarlett Johansson (think Siri, except actually useful). “Him,” on the other hand, proves that you should never, ever trust a charming man with a British accent, because he will probably hurt you, but only after sleeping with you and telling you that you’re beautiful.
