Barton Fink (1991)
In 1941, New York intellectual playwright Barton Fink comes to Hollywood to write a Wallace Beery wrestling picture. Staying in the eerie Hotel Earle, Barton develops severe writer's block. His neighbor, jovial insurance salesman Charlie Meadows, tries to help, but Barton continues to struggle as a bizarre sequence of events distracts him even further from his task. (imdb)

While I really like the overall vibe of this movie, and there's some fantastic scenes, I did find parts of it to drag, wish they cut 20-30 minutes, then I'd probably like it considerably more. Barton is so full of himself that you can't help but enjoy it a bit as he fails and fails.
