A somewhat strange drama about a successful Manhattan lawyer Howard Wakefiled who is unsatisfied with his work and family life.

Circumstances bring him to the attic of his garage where he spent a night, and then he decided to stay there indefinitely watching his family's life thru attic's window.

The movie is full with funny remarks that Howard says watching his life passing by without him. Acting is very good. But his behavior defies common sense, and I could not feel any compassion toward him.

Overall, not a bad movie but I would not call it a "must see" film.

My score: 6 out of 10.
