From the estate of film producer Elliott Kastner, whose best known credits include "The Long Goodbye" (Robert Altman, 1973), "The Missouri Breaks" (Arthur Penn, 1976), and "Heat" (Michael Mann, 1996). Singer/songwriter Harry Nilsson teamed up with Terry Southern to create a truly odd and uncomfortable screenplay about a struggling, unstable actress calling people and businesses on her phone in her apartment. Essentially a one-woman performance, set entirely in a small apartment with a pet owl, goldfish, and a telephone. Nilsson and Southern enlisted Whoopi Goldberg to play the woman. Rip Torn directed, his first and only time in that capacity. The film included short cameos from Elliott Gould, John Heard, and Severn Darden, as well as the voice of Herve Villechase.
