description: "Hilarious . . . uncompromising."- The New York Times "Searing."- Publishers Weekly "Nyswaner nails the memoir form . . . lush in content."- Entertainment Weekly In the years immediately following his Academy Award nomination for Philadelphia , screenwriter Ron Nyswaner fell through the rabbit hole. This gripping, intimate, and darkly comic memoir chronicles this period in his life, a -period where a raging drug addiction collided with an obsessive and almost fatal love affair. Ron Nyswaner 's screenplays include Mrs. Soffel , Swing Shift (uncredited), Gross Anatomy , Love Hurts , Philadelphia , and the Showtime film Soldier's Girl . His adaptation of The Painted Veil goes into production next year with Edward Norton and director Caroline Link.
