When a desperate writer (Bradley Cooper) lucks upon a brilliant lost manuscript, he publishes it as his own — and becomes a literary sensation. All's well until the actual author (Jeremy Irons) emerges to confront him. ''[The older man] had faced his own demons, so to speak. He knows that a man has to carry the burden of what he's done,'' says Irons. Cooper, who helped his boyhood friends Brian Klugman and Lee Sternthal get the film made, says he was drawn to its themes: '' 'Will my life ever have meaning? Will I ever fulfill my potential?' Could I relate to that? Absolutely.'' —Jeff Labrecque
