Summary:
Charlie Babbit, a callous, self-centered young hustler feels he's been cheated out of his $3 million dollar inheritance. Left only with his late father's prize rose bushes and vintage '49 Buick convertible, Charlie soon uncovers yet another surprise--a brother he never knew he had. Discovering Raymond in an institution, Charlie abducts him in a last-ditch attempt to extort his 'fair share' of the family estate. What begins as an unsentimental journey across the country evolves into a mystical odyssey of love and self-revelation as Raymond forces Charlie to grow beyond the limits of his own handicapped heart.
