Seize the Day

Seize the Day

Tommy Wilhelm (Robin Williams) is a salesman. An honest, hard-working guy who has lost his job, his girlfriend and left part of his sanity behind as he heads to New York to pick up the pieces of his life. He's always being able to sell, but caught in a downward spiral, he must face the father who never really understood him while trying to balance his newly precarious existence.

Synopsis: Things are looking down for Tommy Wilhelm, the quintessential mid-life-crisis man (made famous by novelist Saul Bellow): His marriage is on the skids, he's estranged from his children and his father, and he's unemployed and living in a shabby hotel in NYC. Nonetheless, he has the emotional where with all to undergo a transformation by, well, seizing the day and finding himself.
