Synopsis:

Writer Harry Block draws inspiration from people he knows, and from events that happened to him, sometimes causing these people to become alienated from him as a result.

Harry Block is a well-regarded novelist whose tendency to thinly-veil his own experiences in his work, as well as his un-apologetic attitude and his proclivity for pills and whores, has left him with three ex-wives that hate him. As he is about to be honored for his writing by the college that expelled him, he faces writer's block and the impending marriage of his latest flame to a writer friend. As scenes from his stories and novels pass and interact with him, Harry faces the people whose lives he has affected - wives, lovers, his son, his sister.

Comedy set in New York about a middle aged writer who accepts an invitation
to revisit his old college to receive a fellowship. He arrives with his nine
year-old son, his best friend and a black hooker in tow. Harry is a writer in late middle age who has never really grown up. He has had
three wives and several lovers and he has spent the advance from his publisher
for his latest book, but has no inspiration to actually write it. When Harry is
invited to a small college to receive an award, he tries to get one of his
friends to go but they all turn him down, then he decides to take his small son
but has to resort to kidnapping when his ex-wife refuses to let him go.
