Director : Brian Klugman & Lee Sternthal
Running Time : 103 mins
Struggling writer Rory Jansen (Cooper) has been writing his novel for three years, but can’t find anyone who is willing to take a chance on him and publish his work. When he receives an old briefcase as a present from his wife Nora (Saldana), he finds inside the manuscript for a novel. Reading it, he realises just how good it is and, through a misunderstanding, gets the book published as his own work. When he meets an old man (Irons), the actual author, he is faced with a life-defining decision...
Jeremy Irons really makes this film with his slightly sinister yet defeated performance, but to be fair the entire cast are pretty impressive. I especially enjoyed the ambiguous ending that, although it does lean in one particular direction, leaves the actual conclusion of the story open to interpretation. Fans of Cooper and Saldana will find them especially good in this drama that really gives them a chance to prove themselves.
