The man, 77-year-old Jim Walpole, reportedly tripped, fell and gashed his neck open and his wife Marilyn, 79, begged bystanders for assistance
The way he was spurting I thought it was the carotid artery or the jugular vein Marilyn told the paper
Then Malkovich appeared taking over just like a doctor she said, using his scarf to apply pressure to the wound to stop the bleeding The couple also got help from a local restaurant owner
They were so helpful, so wonderful Jim recalled I asked 'What's your name He said 'John And I didn't ask the last name cause I didn't figure I'd remember it anyhow
Jim was eventually taken by ambulance to the hospital where he received 10 stitches and was released
Although the Ohio couple said they didn't recognize the Places in the Heart actor Marilyn said the Academy Award winner now has her lifetime support
I'm going to watch all of them his movies that I can she said
In addition to his extensive, celebrated acting career Malkovich has also produced numerous films including Juno and The Perks of Being a Wallflower
