Working as an orderly in a psychiatric clinic, he's followed home by one of the patients, Leila (Johanna Wokalek), who's suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder after her mother's death and starts hyper-ventilating if touched. An offbeat, strangely tender love story develops as the two hit the road away from the authorities, and Nick has to take responsibility for someone for the first time in his life. Wallpapered with star names and cameos, and with some nicely turned, wry dialogue, pic has an infectious sense of fun, with Christof Wahl's lensing bathing everything in a warm amber light. ...Barefoot ( Barfuss )
