The Answer Man
2009, English. Directed by John Hindman.
He wrote the book on life's big questions. But the truth is he hasn't got a clue.
Twenty years ago, Arlen Faber wrote a book about spirituality that became wildly popular. These days, he's a curmudgeonly recluse who only enjoys the company of his chiropractor, Elizabeth. As Elizabeth's warmth starts to melt Arlen's cold heart, he comes to realize what love really means.
