Combining elements of
A Christmas Carol and
Rain Man (1988), this modern-day parable of greed and redemption was crafted with generous helpings of sentimentality by director
Mike Nicholas.
Harrison Ford stars as Henry Turner, a slick, ruthless corporate attorney willing to spin any falsehood to win a case. A bully to his teenage daughter Rachel (
Mikki Allen), Henry also cheats on his wife Sarah (
Annette Bening) and treats everyone from the maid to his assistant with cruel selfishness. Stepping out to a local mini-market for a pack of cigarettes late one night, Henry accidentally interrupts a burglary and is shot in the head by a stick-up artist. After a long coma, Henry survives only to find that he has no memory and must re-learn everything from reading to tying his shoes. Reborn as a friendly, childlike innocent, Henry charms his therapist (
Bill Nunn) and reconnects with his wife and daughter, only to uncover some secrets about how truly appalling he once was.
