In Hollywood, the land of illusion, never have those words rung so true... until S1MØNE. Viktor Taransky (Al Pacino) is a down-and-out Academy Award-nominated director who loses his last chance for a comeback when temperamental actress (Winona Ryder in a cameo role) walks off his set. But now computer genius Hank Aleno (Elias Koteas) shows up... S1MØNE is a director's dream: She won't get old, won't gain an ounce. She'll never need rehab, doesn't have an agent, manager, entourage or guru. She won't demand a bigger trailer or a private jet. She does her own stunts. She has no problem with nudity. The only power she craves comes from an electrical outlet. What could possibly go wrong?

It is Frankenstein+AI+Parent Trap+Pionocchio+Ed Wood+A Star is Born+Smart House+Lars and the Real Girl+Her... and I'm sure I'm missing a few. It's a little hokey and more like a Disney TV movie than a theatrical release. But you couldn't ask for more committed actors. In fact, it couldn't work without them. The disappointing end though didn't make sense based on the events before it. What's scary though is that just 20 years later, we have the technology to almost get away with it.
