Synopsis
From the team who created Ghost World – director Terry Zwigoff and writer Daniel Clowes – comes this satire starring Max Minghella as Jerome, a high school misfit who dreams of becoming a famous artist. Accepted at a prestigious East Coast art school, he joins a freshman class of artsy stereotypes. He’s attracted to beautiful artist model Audrey (Sophia Myles), but is appalled when she drops him in favor of Jonah, a preppy jock (Matt Keeslar). Failing to impress through genuine talent or sensitivity, Jerome first imitates Jonah’s primitive artwork, and then falls back on copying the violent stylings of another fellow student (Jim Broadbent). When he’s mistakenly arrested for murder, Jerome is delighted to discover his newfound celebrity could be the perfect way to make all his dreams come true.
