I am not sure why this movie was made.  Someone bought the rights to a book by an L A Times columnist and had the wherewithall to get it produced.  Nothing happens.  A middle class guy befriends a homeless man who was a music school dropout and who is schizophrenic.  He convinces him to go to a shelter.  End of movie.  However, the acting is brilliant.

I saw the trailer on the "Tropic Thunder" DVD, and thought it was a gag, there were so many cliches in it.
