Plots(1)
Forty-nine-year-old Bobby Bowfinger is the president of a Hollywood-based production company, Bowfinger International Pictures. The company has yet to produce a film, Bobby's personal net worth is virtually zero and the company only has $2,184 to its name. Bobby believes his fortunes will change when his accountant, Afrim, changes hats and writes a science-fiction alien invasion screenplay that Bobby thinks all studios will clamor for. He has a small stable of followers who support his vision in being part of this movie. (Showtime)
