For a long time I thought another movie was this movie


I remember seeing part of a movie about a writer who I thought was played by Nicolas Cage but now I'm not so sure, anyways after seeing Adaption today I am sure this is not it. It was much more surreal and I think the main character was going insane. Does anyone know the true title of the movie I thought for so long was Adaption?

That's not a lot to go on -- could it be Barton Fink?

reply

It sounds like Vampire's Kiss because he is a literary agent who is going insane. Also, Nicolas Cage played an alcoholic in Leaving Las Vegas, he wasn't so much insane as he was suicidal.

reply

From what I remember seeing the movie takes place entirely in the writers house and he hallucinates himself into the story or something

We need more clues.

From what you say I would guess one of this 2:

Secret Window.
The shining.

Not either

Stranger than Fiction? Where a writer writes about a mans life, but that man is real and his life goes according to what the writer writes?

Naked Lunch? The Number 23? My first thought was Barton Fink.
