Directed by Steven Schachter
His career in an uncontrollable downward spiral, a hapless Hollywood producer cons a major studio into financing a $100 million action film following the adventures of 19th century British Prime Minister Benjamin Disraeli, only to find his swindle taking a sudden turn for the worse when his star is kidnapped and the production is shut down. Now left with few other options for resuscitating his flat-lining career, the producer aligns himself with a well-connected Hollywood studio executive in a clandestine attempt to finance another, wholly different film by utilizing the blocked studio funds. William H. Macy and Meg Ryan star in The Wool Cap director Steven Schachter's comic look at the twisted side of Hollywood politics. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

The film was not released in theaters, so luckily it is now available in DVD and blu ray. Check it out. " [More]

"Spout received some copies of this film, and I was asked if I would like one to review. Because I have a high respect for William H. Macy, I said ok and, thus, will forego the test for this entry. I think Mr. Macy is an amazing character actor who is very good at being a chameleon, and without reading too deeply into the premise of this film, I was sold by his presence in it and by the fact that he also co-wrote the screenplay. I thought it had potential to be pretty funny, " [More]
