Norman Reedus plays Harry, an 18-year-old Ohio boy with a very close relationship to his mother (Deborah Harry). When Harry gets in with the local mob, his mother stops at nothing to keep her son close to her. This dark, violent comedy is based on Charles Perry`s 1962 novel PORTRAIT OF A YOUNG MAN DROWNING and features a topnotch cast that also includes Adrien Brody, Elina Lowensohn, and soul man Isaac Hayes.
