When I first watched the interview, this is what I though:
- At first Mr. Cusack seemed bored.
- When he started saying that he hadn't been in the movie the woman was talking about, I thought he was joking, until the very end of the interview, when he told her he thought she was confused. Then, I realized he was not joking, but I still thought he might be lying. (I actually just looked it up, and he wasn't lying. John Cusack was really not in American Beauty.)

I interpreted this much the same way as you. I thought he was joking and "messing" with the interviewer.

(Digging up an old thread, I know.)

On the first viewing, the only thing I caught was him leaning back and crossing his legs to distance himself from the interviewer, but that's only because I've skimmed body language books before. I totally missed his checking out her breasts, but could tell from his tone of voice that he was unhappy and sounded a little short-tempered. I didn't register annoyance at all.
