1h 30m
Directed by Charlie Kaufman and Duke Johnson • 2015 • United States
Starring David Thewlis, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Tom Noonan
From the singularly brilliant, offbeat imagination of screenwriter and codirector Charlie Kaufman (BEING JOHN MALKOVICH, ETERNAL SUNSHINE OF THE SPOTLESS MIND) comes a beautifully tender and surreally humorous stop-motion-animated dreamscape about one man’s long night of the soul. Michael Stone, husband, father, and respected author of “How May I Help You Help Them?” is a man crippled by the mundanity of his life. On a business trip to Cincinnati, where he’s scheduled to speak at a convention of customer-service professionals, he checks into the Fregoli Hotel. There, he is amazed to discover a possible escape from his desperation in the form of an unassuming Akron baked-goods sales rep, Lisa, who may or may not be the love of his life.
