How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A scrappy con artist stumbles into a high-stakes masquerade when a hurricane plunges a psychiatric hospital into darkness, forcing him to bluff his way through a night of escalating mishaps. It's the kind of comedy that runs on momentum and desperation rather than plausibility.
