Directed by Clark Gregg
Victor (Rockwell) is a colonial theme park worker and sex addict. In an effort to pay for his once radical, now demented mother’s (Huston) expensive care in a private hospital, he engages in a brazen scam. While dining in upscale restaurants, he deliberately chokes on his food, allowing himself to be “saved” by good Samaritans, then grow so close to him in the wake of their heroic act, they lavish him with checks. But when his ailing mother hints that she might be ready to spill the secret identity of his long lost father, Victor befriends his mother’s alluring young physician (Macdonald) who leads him to believe his origins may be far more shockingly divine than he ever could have imagined.
