Maria Bello stars as Kitty, a fellow detox survivor to whom Stahl relates his rise and fall. The film also stars Owen Wilson as Stahl's friend and fellow addict, Nicky; Elizabeth Hurley as his wife, Sandra; and Janeane Garofalo as a Hollywood agent, Jana. The real Stahl makes a cameo appearance as a doctor at a methadone clinic. Stiller's performance in the film was critically acclaimed, but the film failed at the box office and never saw widespread release. It has been released on DVD in the USA and the UK. A soundtrack CD was also released with most of the music heard in the film. Rated R (For Pervasive Graphic Drug Use, Strong Sexuality and Language). LESS
