I like Eric Roberts and Dylan Walsh is a well known actor. They must be really desperate for money if they did this. It's like they took Stephen King's "the Dark Half", stripped it down to an hour long made for TV movie, tossed that script and had a thousand monkeys pounding on a thousand typewriters to come up with this.
The movie bounces back in forth in time, quite annoyingly, I might add. The first ten minutes of the movie (a 75 minute movie, including opening and closing credits, mind you) there is absolutely ZERO dialog. You can see the ending coming from the opening credits. For some unknown reason, there are four characters who feel the need to speak Spanish for a few lines... in Up State New York.... having no bearing on anything. Eric Roberts lines are overdriven so it's hard to understand him. The manager, who claims to be the author's friend, is only concerned with the manuscript.
Do yourself a favor. If you think you might enjoy this plot... skip this and go watch "the Dark Half." I promise, you will thank me.
