Robin Williams plays Gabriel Noone a radio show personality and author. Times are tough for Gabriel lately with his personal life in turmoil, as his boyfriend has just told him he wants some space and has moved out. Gabriel reads stories for listeners late at night on his radio show and is finding it tough to come up with anything lately.
A good friend of his introduces him to a story that will help divert his mind. Gabriel reads the rough draft of this book and its story depicts a young boy sexually assaulted by his father and others while his mother videotaped the acts for future sales.
Gabriel begins a phone relationship with the boy in this story and as this gives him something to focus his attention on it also becomes an item of discussion on whether this boy is all he is made up to be.
I liked the movie because it had a transparent story that allowed you to focus less on the mystery and more on the characters similarities.
This is not a flawless hit by any means as it has less intrigue and suspense then others in its class and its character study is only mediocre. It’s a short film running only 82 minutes.
