Martin Mirkhein is a failed entrepreneur trying to figure out how to pay a huge tax bill to the State of Florida when he gets a brainstorm - a best-selling inspirational men's movement novel by New Age philosopher Luther Waxling (Dennis Hopper - Speed) would make a great film. Never mind that Mirkhein doesn't known a thing about making movies - he decides that this film is his destiny, and he heads out with his girlfriend / personal assistant / aspiring screenwriter Marie to visit Waxling's representatives, who don't react with much enthusiasm when Mirkhein suggest that he'd like them to give him the film rights as well as the money to produce the movie. In search of financing, Mirkhein finds himself working with Kim Ulander (Christopher Walen - Catch Me If You Can) a businessman who doesn't mind if people think he's a gangster and Ron (John Turturro - Anger Management) a second-rate hood with a severely impaired fashion sense.

Legendary producer / director Martin Scorsese (Goodfellas, Taxi Driver, Raging Bull, Gangs Of New York) presents this acclaimed film with a stellar line-up also starring Ethan Hawke (Training Day, Taking Lives) and Rosanna Arquette (The Big Blue).
