During this period of intense work, Wilson's mental-health issues grow worse. The other section of the film features John Cusack as an older Wilson, as he attempts to escape the influence of a manipulative doctor (Paul Giamatti) who has become a totalitarian guru to him. Helping him in this endeavor is a car saleswoman named Melinda (Elizabeth Banks). Directed by Bill Pohlad; Lionsgate; Rated PG-13; 121 minutes; 2014. Sponsored by the Friends of MHL.
