🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film constructs a portrait of existential crisis, relying on Robin Williams' piercing performance that reveals a dramatic depth far from his comedic persona. It explores the fragility of male identity in a world where success is measured in sales.

What lingers after the viewing is a heavy but necessary immersion into the void left by the collapse of the American dream, where the only commodity that can't be sold is one's own dignity. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Fielder Cook
