Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

Fame, fortune, and friendship collide in this hilarious comedic romp that follows a hapless publicist as he exploits a quirky but loveable silent man recently released from a mental health facility. As the Doppelganger of a method actor who refuses to leave his trailer, the wordless man is swept up into a fever dream of Hollywood movie stardom as he encounters boozy co-stars, a self-obsessed leading lady, irascible directors, and shallow super agents, brought to life by a star-studded cast.
