The Rum Diary - DVD [2012]

An aging comedian tours the California desert, lost in a cycle of third-rate venues, novelty tourist attractions, and vain attempts to reach his estranged daughter. By day, he slogs through the barren landscape, inadvertently alienating every acquaintance. At night, he seeks solace in the animation of his onstage persona. Fueled by the promise of a lucrative Hollywood engagement and the possibility of rekindling a relationship with his daughter, he trudges through a series of increasingly surreal and volatile encounters.

Elisabeth Shue, Tom Cruise, Bryan Brown. A young, cocky bartender in New York City dreams of making it big and has all the right moves to make it happen-until his love life interferes. 1988/color/103 min/R/widescreen.
