Description
When a successful African-American author buys a house on an exclusive New England resort island, local law enforcement mistake him for a thief and nearly kill him in a hilariously bungled attempt to protect the estate. But things go from loony to just plain wacky when the town's Police Chief attempts to cover up the embarrassing details of the event by planting a convicted criminal in the house to take the rap!

Description
A straitlaced businessman meets a quirky, free-spirited woman at a downtown New York greasy spoon. Her offer of a ride back to his office results in a lunchtime motel rendezvous, just the beginning of a capricious interstate road trip that brings the two face-to-face with their hidden selves. Featuring a killer soundtrack and electric performances from Jeff Daniels.
