Midland City madman Dwayne Hoover (Bruce Willis) has car commercials on every local channel and his smiling face beaming down from every billboard, but he's not smiling inside; his life is falling apart. Not only is he saddled with a pill-popping schizophrenic wife (Barbara Hershey), a glitter-covered lounge singer son named Bunny (Lukas Haas), and a paranoid, cross-dressing sales manager (Nick Nolte, in a hilarious performance), but it's Hawaiian week at the dealership, and everyone is acting extra-bizarre, especially Dwayne. Luckily, obscure science fiction novelist Kilgore Trout (Albert Finney) is coming to Midland City to preside over an art festival--and maybe save the day. His eyes wide open to the cosmic truths behind the horrors of existence, Trout might be the one man who can lead Hoover out of the hell of his own perceptions.
Based on the revered Kurt Vonnegut novel, this ultraweird film from director Alan Rudolph may alienate viewers in search of a conventional narrative, but those in the mood for a neopsychedelic trip through the American psyche should enjoy the ride. They'll also dig the great "exotica" score by lounge legend Martin Denny.
