Description: Small-time Hollywood producer Charlie Berns is almost at the end of his rope: no one will return his calls, and he's so far in debt that it would take a miracle to bring him back. When a manuscript about Benjamin Disraeli and William Gladstone makes its way to him, Charlie runs with the opportunity. Soon he's scamming deals on a script no one has read, with a notorious leading man, for a European production on a location no one can find ... but, hey, he's making money and back in the game.
