Just a great little film. I first saw this when it came out and loved it. Its a tale of an established author who, having hit a low-point in his writing career due to a relationship break-up, finds himself writing a new book about a fictional "Mickey Spillane"-type detective and acting it out as the third-person narrative. All the while, the plot sees him fall in love and rescue the day and he ends up with a pretty good book at the end! VERY VERY enjoyable...
