I haven't seen this since it originally came out in 1982. It's adapted from a short story by Kurt Vonnegut, Jr. and features Christopher Walken before he was, you know, Christopher Walken and Susan Sarandon, well, hasn't she always been Susan Saradon? Walken plays Harry Nash, a painfully shy hardware store clerk who becomes completely transformed when he's acting in the local community theater productions. Jonathan Demme directs. John Cale composed the film score. Enjoy!

A fascinating insight into what Walken might have been like as Stanley Kowalski.
Remember when PBS was filled with stuff like this, instead of endless "Doo-Wop Reunion" pledge drives?
