Good for Nothing

Overweight and weak-willed, Flip Mellis has a self-fulfilling fatalism which leads him to stumble through each day, hoping that he can get a job, mend his marriage and rebuild his life. But in the space of a week, his encounters with characters from American small-town life get in the way of Flip's well-meaning attempts to reform himself.

Flip Mellis, supraponderal si cu vointa slaba, are un fatalism auto-implinit, care il conduce sa se impiedice in fiecare zi, sperand ca poate obtine un loc de munca, sa-si repare casatoria si sa-si refaca viata. Dar, in decurs de o saptamana, intalnirile sale cu personaje din viata americana a orasului mic impiedica incercarile bine intentionate ale lui Flip de a se reforma.
