That you might never have seen.
So many good moments.
One of my favorites:
Vernon Hardapple: Why did you keep writing this book if you didn't even know what it was about?
Grady Tripp: I couldn't stop.
Truth.

I loved this movie!!
It never did get the attention it deserved. In fact, I don't ever recall seeing any advertisements for it.
It is one of my top five.
Thanks for posting this.
Isn't there a bit in J. Irving's best (or at least most favous) book about not being able to 'thhhstoppp!'
.
Oh criminey -- it's actually good?? Many times I've been tempted to watch it, but I never do, because hey, Michael Douglas. [involuntary shudder]
I so envy the state you describe!
Oh, yeah, it's a terrific movie. It gets writing _and_ academia right--not an easy thing to do. And Michael Douglas gives an amazing performance here--whereas his Gordon Gecko was all dark angles and sharp edges in WALL STREET, his Grady Tripp is a hilariously-wry affable mess who's become dangerously resigned to his failings.
Okay thanks for the film recommendation and I gotta tell you it was surreal for me because all of the scenery was where I came from. Including the weather. Brr.
A favorite flick, despite Michael Douglas, who is tolerable here. Bob Dylan won a well deserved oscar for the theme song too, if memory serves.
