Curtis Hanson directed this 2000 film starring Michael Douglas, Tobey Maguire, Frances McDormand, Robert Downey Jr, Katie Holmes, and Rip Torn.
Michael Douglas is an stressed, stoned English Professor who has had a successful first novel but has been working on his second for a long time...seven years. And his agent is coming to see him. And his wife is leaving him. And his affair with his boss the dean of the college is not going so well. And to top it all off, one his his students is a brilliant writer.
Quirky, funny, and it has some depth and feeling to it.
