Summary

Saul "doc" Karoo, écrivaillon sans talent traînant une bonne dose de névroses est script doctor pour Hollywood. Sa fonction ? Massacrer les films des autres pour les rendre "commerciaux". Quant à l'homme privé, il se délecte amèrement de son inaptitude à toute forme d'intimité comme à toute émotion spontanée. Ultime échec : son impossibilité à noyer dans l'ivresse la conscience de sa vie de raté. Jusqu'à ce qu'une occasion unique se présente à lui : à la demande d'une vieille gloire hollywoodienne, le remake d'une ancienne comédie romantique à souhait qui va l'inciter à reconsidérer son existence...
