Events in the life of a Hollywood studio executive, unfold with the same unrealistic positive coincidences, ultimately culminating to a "happy ending", much like the movie scripts, with which he works day in and out, after he accidentally murders someone.

    Damn I love me some Altman. If you haven't seen this movie in a decade, bump it up your list, it's great. Raised my rating from 4.5 to 5 stars. 🥳
