An accomplished cook (William Hurt) opens a restaurant in a remote area but fails to get enough clientele to keep his business viable. His unusual neighbor conspires with him to fake a rare bird sighting in order to draw in more business. Their plan works, but his strange neighbor also brings trouble. His marriage fails, and he and the neighbors amazing daughter (Molly Parker) fall in love. I liked this crazy and sometimes sweet plot and the acting was great. Interesting and fun to watch.
