this hilarious comedy by the author of Tuesdays
with Morrie, Tyler Johnes, a self-obsessed
movie star, is finally nominated for an Oscar,
but he dies the night before the awards. Outraged
at his bad luck and determined to know if he
wins (even though hes dead), he bargains
with a heavenly Irish gatekeeper to return to
earth for the big night. Along the way, he drags
his agent, his acting rival, his bombshell girlfriend
and his ex-wife into the journey, in a wildly
twisting tale of Hollywood, the afterlife, and
how we are judged.
