Henry Chinaski (Matt Dillon) considers himself a writer and on occassion writes. Mostly he quests for the booze and women that sidetrack and seduce, rather than inspire greatness. When he falls for Jan (Lili Taylor), the souldful connection fails to save either from their self-destructive ways, and the relationship totters between earnest connection and reflective loathing.
