A struggling writer (Glover) steals poems written by his mute friend to achieve fame and fortune.
Yes, Crispin Glover as a seemingly "normal"character. I've only seen this once - and not completely. However, it was one of those times when you run across something on TV and it grabs you. A nice story about greed and guilt and wanting more than you deserve. Strong performances from Crispin and Tatum O'Neal. A small film worth a look. .For some reason I'm thinking of "Five Corners" with Jodie Foster and Tim Robbins, a similarly unusual-yet-normal Character-driven film.
