Writer
The twisted, sexually offbeat memoir by author Jonathan Ames becomes this original adaptation about the sexual peccadilloes of the writer (playing himself) as he experiences masculinity first hand and lives to write about it. Based on Ames' inflammatory, exquisitely worded, and often tastelessly brilliant columns for the "New York Press."

Himself
A documentary film tracing the collaboration between One Ring Zero, the Brooklyn house-band for McSweeney's Publishing, and an ensemble cast of award-winning authors, each of whom contributed original lyrics. Author Myla Goldberg torments guest singer Syd Straw with tongue twisting, five star vocabulary words. Paul Auster riffs on the ills of Cincinatti and the Iraq war. The film's title, in fact, comes from the inspired dialogue of a talking cockroach.

Jonathan
This movie is a four-character improvisation study about the romantic entanglements among the disparate occupants and visitors to a borrowed New York City apartment. Jonathan forgot that he had invited a girlfriend over. They met recently and have been seeing one another but he forgot about it as soon as he met Savannah. She was going to come over to the apartment in the afternoon as he originally thought it was going to be his for a few days (borrowing from a friend's) but due to conflicts and misunderstandings, Savannah and David (who owned the apartment) were occupied as well. Isabel shows up and they hang out until David throws them out after a heated discussion.

데이비드는 헐리우드에서 명성을 얻고 있는 착실한 중견 감독으로 프랑스에서 돌아온다. 그러나 당시 미국의 상황은 "반미활동위원회"라는 조직을 통해 공산주의자를 색출해내고 있으며 많은 영화 관계자들이 밀고되거나 추방당하고 있었다. 데이비드 또한 예외없이 위원회의 조사를 받게되며, 사상의 자유가 보장되었던 그 당시 두 세 번 집회에 참석했다는 이유로 그는 자신의 예술 활동에 타격을 입는다. 데이비드의 열렬한 후원자인 제작사 자누크는 영화 제작전에 모든일들을 마무리 지어줄 것을 요구하나, 함께 일했던 자신의 동료들을 밀고해야하는 위원회의 비양심적인 방법에 데이비드는 단호히 거부한다. 그러나 그후 데이비드에게 가해지는 탄압은 날로 심해진다. 그가 준비해 오던 영화는 제작이 취소되고, 다른 임시 감독자리마저 잃게 되는 불이익을 당한다. 심지어 사진관에서의 일자리마저 FBI 훼방으로 그만두게 되고 결국 가족의 생계에까지 위협을 받는다. 게다가 그의 아들은 학교에서 아버지인 데이비드로 인해 조롱을 당하며 그 누군가에 의해서 아버지가 살해될 것이라는 공포에 빠져든다. 데이비드는 이런 상황 속에서 고뇌하지만 자기의 결심을 바꿀수 없었다. 그러나 제작자 자누크가 그에게 새로운 영화제작을 제시하자 대본을 받아든 데이비드는 평생을 바쳐 하고 싶었던 영화에 대한 갈증과 자누크가 제시한 영화에 강한 의욕을 느끼면서 자신의 결심이 흔들리기 시작한다. 그는 드디어 법정에 들어서서 증언을 한다. 그러나 위원회 의원들이 태도에 환멸을 느낀 그는 동료에 대한 증언을 거부하고 자신의 굳은 신념을 되찾는다. 결국 데이비드는 그로 인해 법정 모독죄로 실형을 언도 받고 생업을 잃게 된다. 그리고 그로부터 20년이 지난 후에야 비로소 그의 정당성을 인정받게 되었다.
