    Storyline

    Edit
    Les, a small-time celebrity photographer desperate to make it big, befriends Toby, a homeless young man with no direction except a vague desire to become an actor. When by chance Toby becomes romantically involved with K'Harma Leeds, the hottest pop star of the moment, Les grows jealous and plots revenge. —CaptainStigmata

      Micheal Pitt and Steve Buscemi later played together on the TV series Boardwalk Empire (2010)
    • Goofs
      Microphone being used by the MTV interviewer backstage at the awards was not a wireless mic. Just a cheap "wired" mic without a cable.
    • Crazy credits
      After the end credits have finished rolling, there is a short 'epilogue' segment featuring Steve Buscemi's character.
    • Alternate versions
      According to the director, Tom DiCillo, there are two versions of this film, his original release and a Director's Cut. The original had an ending imposed on him by the producers, while the Director's version has his originally intended ending. This is what he says: "I had a lot of pressure from the producers to take this one scene at the end of the film and move it or cut it. And the only place to move it was at the end of the credits, like an Easter egg. Which I did against my better judgment because at least it would keep the scene in the film. It's that scene with Buscemi on the TV talk show, Access Entertainment. And it just bugged me because that scene ties together every single element of his character and his dream of taking "the shot heard around the world." Not that he has a fairy tale ending, but something good actually happens to him. But the financiers insisted I end the film when Michael Pitt and Alison Lohman disappear into the TV floodlights. I fought them and fought them and finally they pressured that if I didn't do it they weren't going to release the film. So I did it, and from the second I did it, I knew it was wrong. It ends the film on a kind of an existential downer that I never intended." His full interview on the release of his original version on a Special Edition Blu Ray can be found here: https://filmmakermagazine.com/111391-in-a-strange-way-the-film-feels-absolutely-new-to-me-director-tom-dicillo-on-the-release-of-the-directors-cut-of-his-2006-feature-delirious/#.YbrvjllOkjI The Blu Ray also includes, among other things: NEW!

    Phenomenal
    Delirious is different, genuine, alive, funny and as close to real life miracle as it gets! This movie is so deep (in a very entertaining way), you feel as if you just read a classical novel; instead of the silly flicks we all are so accustomed to see these days. Steve Buscemi's captivating performance, Michael Pitt's innocent yet noble attitude, Gina Gerswin, Allison and Callie's brilliant and lovable performances just drags you into the movie, where you feel a connection with most, if not all of the leads...

    It is not a fast paced action movie, it will not make you sit on the edge of your seat throughout, but you will feel enriched when you leave. Tom Dicillo has outdone himself (and certainly many others)! We all need more movies like Delirious.
