Dodatni mož

Slovenski opis filma:

Louis Ives je pisatelj, ki se je do zdaj preživljal s poučevanjem, zdaj pa se odloči, da bo poskusil uspeti v New Yorku. Hitro dobi službo pri okoljevarstveni reviji in najame sobo na domu znanega dramatika Henryja Harrisona, ki si vsakdanji kruh služi kot spremljevalec premožnih in osamljenih dam. Louis s Henryjevo pomočjo počasi spoznava njemu doslej neznani urbani svet New Yorka, zraven pa se zaljubi še v svojo kolegico in vneto okoljevarstvenico Mary.

Originalni opis filma:

Louis, a young teacher enamored of the age of F. Scott Fitzgerald, loses his job when he's caught trying on a bra he finds in a campus office. He decides to go to New York City to find himself and to be a writer. He answers an ad for a housemate placed by the eccentric and opinionated Henry Harrison; an odd-couple relationship starts. Louis gets a job selling advertising for a green magazine and fancies Mary, a co-worker. He meets Henry's neighbor, the hirsute Gershon, and Henry offers Paul schooling in the gentleman's world of being an "extra man" - a hired companion, a gigolo - for older women. Can Louis sort out these varied worlds as well as his own expectations?
