Report
Grady is a 50-ish English professor who hasn't had a thing published in years -- not since he wrote his award winning "Great American Novel" 7 years ago. This weekend proves even worse than he could imagine as he finds himself reeling from one misadventure to another in the company of a new wonder boy author.
This movie contains 11 potentially triggering events.

A transvestite (man who dresses as a woman) is referred to with he/him pronouns. The character could be viewed as transcoded but he also explicitly state that he goes by a male name after he's taken off the makeup.
