The Wackness (2008 Jonathan Levine & scr)

1994. Drug dealer befriends his analyst, then falls in love with his daughter. Didn't think Josh Peck was up to the leading role; the others are Ben Kingsley and Olivia Thirlby. Famke Janssen is the doctor's wife, Peck's parents are Talia Balsam and David Wohil. With Mary-Kate Olsen, Jane Adams (Hung), Method Man, Aaron Yoo.

Shot in a sombre brown palette by Petra Korner in Panavision.

He's earned $26,000 - but that's not nearly enough to bail his dad out...

Liked the street beggar's sign 'Money needed for alcohol research', and the ad slogan below:
