Summary
Barton Fink is a Broadway playwright who reluctantly relocates to Hollywood to write screenplays. Ordered to write a low budget screenplay about wrestling, Fink manages to type one sentence and then... nothing! Although his chatty insurance salesman neighbor Charlie helps out by teaching Barton about wrestling, the clock ticks, the temperature rises, and Barton's life spins more and more out of control.
