Film drama loosely based on characters from James Joyce's
'Ulysses'. Stephen (Joseph Fiennes) is a writer just released from
prison after serving a 15-year sentence for murder. He takes a job
in a Mississippi diner under the watchful eye of manager Vic (Sam
Shepard), and the more searing glare of 'good ole boy' Horace
(Dennis Hopper). Apart from working on a series of unpublished
books, Stephen keeps his thoughts and his past to himself. Pregnant
housewife Mary Bloom (Elisabeth Shue), meanwhile, lost both her
husband and daughter in a car crash, and then gave birth
prematurely. Wracked with pain and guilt, she named her son
Leopold, after the Joyce character, as a reminder of the academic
life she left behind when she became a mother. Raising him to lead
the life she abandoned, she only succeeds in alienating the boy.
When Leo (Davis Sweatt) meets Stephen, a bond is formed between
them, and Stephen realises he has to confront his past mistakes in
order to help both himself and his young friend.
